Morning View is an album recorded in Malibu, California and released on October 23, 2001 by Incubus. "Morning View" is the name of a street in Malibu.

It has a softer sound than previous albums by the band, especially apparent on songs such as 'Echo' and 'Are You In?'. Songs such as 'Just A Phase' display more original song structures.

The final song, 'Aqueous Transmission', is unlike anything else the band had attempted, 'Aqueous Transmission' employed the use of Japanese instruments such as the Kokyu. The song is 7 minutes and 46 seconds long, with the last minute consisting of frogs croaking outside the studio in Malibu. Lead vocalist Brandon Boyd says that the purpose of the song was to make "the listener pee in his/her pants" from the relaxation.
