I'm listening to Incubus again, still awesome as before and I'd say even more so now. I'm mostly listening to the S.C.I.E.N.C.E and Light Grenades albums since I didn't have those last time. Brandon Boyd's vocals are perfect in any situation in their music, regardless of which album you take into account.

They've gone through a lot of changes in musical style over the years, by each album. I'll highlight how mellow they've become in chronological order.

Fungus Amongus, Psychedelic Funk Metal/Hardcore with occasional aggressive vocals. Aptly put, the solos in this album amongst the best I've ever heard. So what if it's not uber shred?

S.C.I.E.N.C.E, similar to Fungus Amongus but even heavier, added more DJ antics and less weird/psychedelic with a more Jazz feel on songs like Summer Romance. Deep Inside shows a nice blend of their Jazz efforts and hardcore/metal approach and the solo is freaking awesome! It shows them branching out a bit more.

Make Yourself, a more versatile album which explores really mellow characteristics like Drive to heavier (but not as much as the two early albums) stuff like Privilege.

Morning View, similar to Make Yourself but with a a shifting balance between mellow and heaviness. They've kept the same kind of heaviness in some songs like Nice to Know You.

A Crow Left of the Murder, a mellower album than the rest containing really laid-back tunes like Talk Shows On Mute to not-as-heavy songs like Megalomaniac.

Light Grenades, more sophisticated and intricate than the rest of the albums. Anna Molly displays a very melodic side to them. I'd have to say that this is their most emotional album to date. Lets hope they don't over do the emotional bit in albums yet to come.

~Btw, you don't have to be so easily moved by such things like dreams and happenings. What's real is what that matters... On the other hand, you should make your dreams by yourself and make them true =)
