maybe it’s her reaction to hearing Hybrid Theory

This is beyond ugly.

I agree. I honestly think people cling way too much to Hybrid Theory and Meteora. Linkin Park IS my favorite band, just like they were back then…when I was in middle school. It’s like they grew their sound as I got older. I have nothing but respect for them trying new and different things. That being said, my favorite album to date is still A Thousand Suns.

They don’t need the hear the guitars to see the soul of Linkin Park and the message of the song. These fans are afraid the step outside their comfort zone when Linkin Park message from Hybrid Theory was all about that. People were pissed when rapping elements were in the songs, but they grew to love it, now when Linkin Park tries something new you “fans” shit on it, because it introduces a pop element? You guys can dislike the music but Linkin Park will move forward and you fake posers will be left behind.

Did you spend a couple of years stuck in a lift or marooned on a desert island in the early noughties? Hybrid Theory sold 30m copies, there’s probably more of a nostalgia market for it than all the other nu-metal bands combined

Finally someone who knows music here

See the soul of Linkin Park !!!

In all honesty they arnt really trying something new are they? I mean this sounds like it could be off the last Ed Sheeran album. Aside for having more depressing lyrics.

I really enjoyed correctly predicting all the chord changes on my first listen

Was anyone pissed off about this? I mean Rap and Metal together was already a thing for a decade when Hybrid Theory came out and Limp Bizkit, Papa Roach, Cypress Hill had all released albums and established themselves by then. Nu-Metal was already coined and well on its way before they came along.

and Limp Bizkit sold a shit ton too, but it’s only relatively recent that anyone would even begrudgingly admit to liking them.

#56

How many times have Linkin Park headlined download in the past decade?

Not defending them, but all the signs are there.

feel like these are copied and pasted comments from under the youtube video

I got the same impression, but the SPG’s too consistent and there aren’t enough slurs.

And now you’re not so sure?

Can’t really believe how bad this is. Beyond my already very very low expectations.

But look, some old school fans have ‘Nu-Metalled’ it up. :grinning:
