Incubus Releases New Single 'Absolution Calling'

Incubus has released their first new song, “Absolution Calling,” since 2011’s “If Not Now, When?” The single comes off their upcoming four-song EP, “Trust Fall: Side A,” which is scheduled to drop on March 24. A second EP — presumably “Side B” — will release later in the year, date yet unknown.

The band stopped in on the “Kevin & Bean Show” on KROQ-FM in Los Angeles this morning for an interview, where guitarist Mike Einziger explained how the song came about. “Actually, Brandon [Boyd] was in Bali, in a land far away. He had to leave on this trip so we were like, let’s just try to make studio magic while he was gone so we started sending him idea. All four of us were in the studio jamming. That song just came out of us all in the studio improvising. It was like, oh wait, what’s that? Oh, cool. And it just evolved,” Einziger said.

You can watch the lyric video for “Absolution Calling” below. It will be available for purchase on iTunes on Friday.
