One of the unreleased songs called "Anything" was later released on the compilation album Monuments and Melodies. Out of the 30 songs the band sketched out for the album, 13 ended up on the final release. It's nice to write music all day and be like, 'I'm going to take a break, see you guys in two hours.'" Vocalist Brandon Boyd stated that the band "needed quick access to the beach because we're kinda spoiled brats sometimes. You could just get up and it was a natural extension of your day." The idea was to not feel as if you were driving to work on a record. When we were getting ready to write this one, we knew that we needed to get into a more creative place. Former bassist Alex Katunich (aka "Dirk Lance") noted that the band had previously "tried to do that for at least the writing portion of Make Yourself, but we didn't have enough clout at the time. To record the album, the band lived in Malibu, California, on a street called "Morning View Drive". With the album producing the popular singles " Wish You Were Here" and " Nice to Know You," Morning View generally achieved critical praise and went double-platinum, making it the band's highest selling album. Morning View was the last Incubus album to feature bassist Alex Katunich. Continuing the move away from nu metal, the album ranges widely from soft to hard rock sounds in the style of alternative rock. A companion DVD, The Morning View Sessions, was released on May 29, 2002. Morning View is the fourth studio album by American rock band Incubus, released October 23, 2001, through Epic Records.
