i asked if you were serious
and you neither confirmed or denied either way it was a stupid and pointless thing to say... my general assumption is that people are stupid... there are most likely some poor kids who believe that

Linkin Park
I'll start this by saying that Linkin Park's first two real albums, Hybrid
Theory and Meteora, were amazing. Meteora is probably the best album ever produced, and here's why: Linkin Park's niche is combining rock elements and hip hop elements into one mixture of greatness. They aren't the first ones to do it, but they are the first ones to do it well. So essentially, they created their own genre, and the results were incredible. Until Midnight struck. Minutes To Midnight is probably the worst, most disappointing album ever produced. And here's why: Minutes To Midnight split the rock and the hip hop into two different genres instead of combining them in each song. You have songs like Hands Held High, which is straight rap with no rock elements whatsoever, and you have songs like No More Sorrow, with heavy guitar riffs and darker vocals, but no hip hop at all, no rapping, no synthesizer, nothing. And then of course you have songs like What I've Done, which have neither rock nor hip hop elements and stand out as awful tracks on an awful album. So all this in mind, I wait patiently for the next LP album. The problem introduced by Minutes To Midnight is easily fixable, but whether they will go back to the old genre or stick to this new stuff is anyone's guess. P.S. The Catalyst is probably their worst song yet. The vocal stem has potential, but everything else is actually painful to listen to. Nothing flows together, and the beat doesn't make any sense. The whole song builds and builds but there isn't even a climax that could possibly redeem the song. |

Album: Hybrid Theory, released in 2000
I always liked the album Hybrid Theory (2000--2002), Hybrid theory won a Grammy Award for best hard Rock performance ("Crawling").
And was nominated for two other Grammy Awards: Best New Artist and Best Rock Album. MTV awarded the band their Best Rock Video and the Best Direction Awards for "In The End". But after Hybrid Theory, and concrning their next albums, there wasnt more than a few songs I liked, but their style of music is ground breaking anyway you look at it. In my opinion. |
