Incubus

"Incubus" is a track by British neo-prog band Marillion, appearing on their second studio album Fugazi, originally released in 1984. The album was produced by Nick Tauber and marked the debut of drummer Ian Mosley in the lineup. For electric guitarists, the song offers a rich example of the neo-progressive rock style Marillion pioneered, combining melodic phrasing with layered textures that reward close study of Steve Rothery's distinctive guitar work.

  • Fugazi was recorded between November 1983 and February 1984 across various studios, giving the album a diverse sonic character.
  • Ian Mosley made his debut as Marillion's drummer on Fugazi, replacing founding drummer Mick Pointer.
  • A 2021 stereo remix of Fugazi offers guitarists a cleaner, more detailed mix to study individual instrument parts.

Steve Rothery's primary instrument for Marillion's classic sound, the Strat delivers the glassy single-coil tone and dynamic range essential to his swelling passages and biting solos on albums like 'Misplaced Childhood.' Its responsive volume knob allows him to transition seamlessly from whisper-soft clean textures to cutting leads.

Rothery deploys the Les Paul's thicker humbucker tone for heavier, more saturated sections within Marillion's progressive arrangements, providing harmonic weight while maintaining the clarity he demands from moderate-output pickups.

The Custom variant offers Rothery enhanced versatility for darker, weightier tones in Marillion's heavier passages, with its construction supporting the sustained, compressed character needed to cut through dense layered arrangements.

Rothery uses this tempo-synced delay to create the shimmering, repeating textures and atmospheric depth that define Marillion's sound, layering it with chorus and reverb for lush, spacious soundscapes.
