fuck is going on with that video?

it’s so fucking weird. is it meant to be funny?

also what’s the crossover between linkin park fans and basketball fans? seems so incongruous - like they thought ‘okay we’re introducing black people into our music for the first time… what else has black people in it… oh yeah the NBA’

its 2017, can they really not convincingly CGI chester from linkin park dunking without looking like he’s being held up by wires?

I haven’t heard anything by The Offspring since Original prankster.

This is absolute dogshit.

i’m guessing it was a parody of katy perry etc. but it’s not really funny and less listenable than the source material

*i say etc. i just mean katy perry

haven’t listened to it

Don’t necessarily recommend it, but I’m quite a fan of listening to funny bad music.

Yeah far too much travelling isn’t there. NBA refs wouldn’t stand for that shit these days.

I agree with this. Plenty for LP to do to somewhat reinvent themselves without making generic pop music. Of the 4 songs so far I can’t really say I like any of them and there isn’t an ounce of creativity being shown. I don’t want another Hybrid Theory and I understand the bandmates don’t want to make another one, but there’s plenty of other elements/subgenres/styles to incorporate into your music to make it feel new. I’m convinced they’re a talented enough group to do it and they’ve had plenty of time to work since Hunting Party came out.

I’m not sweating it since I haven’t really listened to LP on a regular basis since maybe my last year of high school (about 3 years ago, for reference) and overall I consider them something of a “past time”, but it’d still be nice to see them come out with a good album which is looking unlikely.

I love the variety of Linkin Park.
You have some hard/wild and loud songs, but also others more calm and chilling <3 You find a fitting LP song for actually all moods. Not to mention the deepness and meaning of the lyrics.

My opinion: LOVE! LOVE! LOVE! To all LP songs .

shitkin’ fart

(still love hybrid theory)

Didn’t they do an entire album with jay z

So their fans are aware that black people exist

Well, someone smashed their albums together in reaction to other people doing better ‘mash ups’ without paying royalities - this is the first time I’m aware of that they actually set out to make a song with non-white people outside their band

They did a remix album of Hybrid Theory featuring people like Chali 2na and Black Thought

Linkin Park have loads of black friends, mate
