- Audiophile Rating: 9/10
- The "mature" album. It is clean, quiet, and atmospheric.
- Why FLAC is mandatory: This album is quiet. The dynamic range is vast. To hear the string arrangements in "Adolescents" or the soft slide guitar in "Defiance," you need the noise floor of a FLAC file. MP3 artifacts (swirling sounds on hi-hats) ruin this record.

- Dynamic range and detail: Many Incubus tracks rely on quiet-loud contrast, delicate acoustic passages and layered production; FLAC preserves these dynamics better than MP3/AAC.
- Archival fidelity: Remasters, alternate takes and live recordings benefit from lossless formats for future-proofing a personal archive.
- Audiophile playback: Headphones, hi-res DACs and quality speakers reveal micro-details (reverb tails, subtle percussion, spatial panning) that lossy formats often remove.
- Released: November 1, 1995
