I think they're better than most of that other nu-metal type crap.

why do you think that?

At the very least they are behind KoRn, SoaD, and Deftones...

As the others have said, I can`t think of too many Nu-Metal bands worse than Linkin Park.

Rap Rock
 

I liked Linkin Park's debut album Hybrid Theory released in 2003, I personally think that Chester Bennington is a very versatile and powerful lead vocalist, the guy can really project, they seemed to be alot more popular earlier in their career than they do these days, I myself havent payed very much attention to their music since their debut album, and I really dont listen to their music anymore, but I liked them back when Hybrid Theory came out.

I had a listen to their new album "A Thousand Suns" (used to like Linkin Park in my younger years) and its very poor. You might have heard the single "The Catalyst", thats the only good song on the album in my opinion.

A Thousand Suns is really bad.

I love Linkin Park, their performance for 'The Catalyst' for the VMAs was pretty good, though I havent been hearing very good reviews about the new album. Have to say my fave CD by them is Meteora, Minutes to Midnight wasnt too bad either.

Hybrid Theory is a guilty pleasure of mine, and I liked a couple of tracks from Meteora and Minutes To Midnight, but the new album is complete garbage. The worst thing I've heard from 2010.

not COMPLETE garbage. i havent heard most of it yet, but The Catalyst was a good one, and im sure theres at least ONE other good song on there
