Former Incubus DJ, Gavin Koppel, is threatening to kill his replacement in the band, Chris Kilmore, reports TMZ.
On December 28, 2009, Koppel allegedly saw Kilmore in a store and said, “You will get killed if you don’t lift that order … people get killed in the street for that.”
Koppel was referring to a previous restraining order that Kilmore received against Koppel back in 2003 after Koppel spit in the new DJ’s face.

Incubus, having just wrapped up a lengthy tour backing its 2006 album “Light Grenades,” is planning to stay off the road for awhile.
Frontman Brandon Boyd told Billboard.com that the band will take a break while its members concentrate on school, family and other activities.
Boyd plans to enroll in a university art program, while guitarist Mike Einziger will go to music school next year to study composition.
Einziger is also getting ready to showcase an orchestral piece in concert at UCLA’s Royce Hall on Aug. 23.
“And, our drummer (José Pasillas) is having a baby, so there’s a lot of normal life stuff going on right now — school, babies, mortgages,” Boyd said.
“I’m of the mind to say it wouldn’t be a bad thing to disappear for a year or two years,” he said. “A lot of people would say culture moves too fast and you need to remind people, but I would argue there’s not any rush.”
Fans still have a chance to catch the band in action before the break: Incubus will play the VH1 Rock Honors tribute to The Who on July 12, alongside Tenacious D, Pearl Jam, Foo Fighters and The Flaming Lips.
The show will tape in Los Angeles on July 12 and is scheduled to premiere on July 17 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on VH1, VH1 Classic and MHD.
