Biography:

Progressive rock band founded in 1970, in Montréal, Quebec originally named 'Incubus'. Original line-up included André Deguire, Michel Phaneuf and Léo England. They changed their name to ExCubus to avoid confusion with the American rock band with the same name. Resurrected by the ProgQuébec label in the 2000's, 4 of the tracks were recorded in 1974 on the French Strawberry Studios label; all tracks were written in the 1970's. They followed up in 2011 with 'Lagauchetière', also on the ProgQuébec label, an album of material originally composed in the 1970's. While the album includes compositions dating back to the group's first lineup, it also showcases pieces written by band members during their participation in subsequent progressive bands such as Coenobium, Igor and Polygone. The album title refers to a street in South Montreal where the members of InCubus lived during the early 70's.
