8

8 is the eighth studio album by American rock band Incubus. It was released on April 21, 2017, through Island Records. The album takes its name from being the band's eighth LP. The release of 8 in 2017 saw the longest time between full length albums for Incubus. The album was produced by Dave Sardy, and later re-produced and mixed by Skrillex, a close friend of the band. The writing for 8 began at the end of 2015, when the band was putting together Part B of their Trust Fall EP. However, with the amount of quality content they were producing, they decided to release an LP instead. Recording took place throughout 2016 and 2017, with production and remixing occurring throughout the cycle, including a few weeks before the final release. This was due to Skrillex's late involvement with the project.
