Incubus may release their new album, Something in the Water, in October.
Frontman Brandon Boyd has revealed the rock band are hoping to drop the follow-up to 2017's 8 in three months' time - and hinted they have much more music in them yet.
The band felt re-energised after recruiting bassist and singer, Nicole Row, who toured with Miley Cyrus in 2017 and Panic! at the Disco between 2018 and 2023.
He told People: "I definitely feel like it is a new era for us.
"For a number of reasons. Revisiting Morning View at the Hollywood Bowl initially was a terrifying challenge. We had never done it before. We played the bowl a handful of times, and it's always an amazing experience. It's kind of like our home game, so to speak."
He continued: "But then we did the show... and it was like, 'Oh, we did it.' That was going to be really hard. And it ended up being really fun, and it went by really fast."
Brandon explained: "Between the Morning View experience and Nicole, that was sort of the kickstart. It was sort of the end of the pandemic era, into now, it feels like our windshield got polished, and all of a sudden, it was like, oh, we have so much here.
"There's so much kind of in our history and our sort of burgeoning legacy, if you will. But there's also so much music in us that still has yet to see the light of day, and this is still so much fun."
The Drive rockers still have a "blast" together, even though the 49-year-old star admits, naturally, there are "scarier, darker parts of life that come creeping in".
He went on: "It's mostly fun still, even despite the scarier, darker parts of life that come creeping in no matter who you are, this thing that we do together is still a blast."
Teasing their next album, he said: "This new record, Something in the Water, we're going to call it. I don't know when it's going to come out, but we were thinking about putting out the whole record in October."
In April, projections featuring the album's title were shared along the River Thames and onto the band's Instagram account, showing footage from locations including the Houses of Parliament and the Tower of London.
Fans walking to their O2 gig from nearby North Greenwich station passed giant posters stuck to the ground featuring a QR code which, when scanned, took them to a pre-order link for the record.
