In 2003, I bought this around the time it came out. What is exactly wrong with this album. Ironically, I bought this along with Rage Against the Machine at the same time, and after so many years, only one of these albums is still in my CD collection. Not as much as Hybrid Theory, but it was cool to hear new LP.
I could go on with this, but let's be honest with the fact that Linkin Park have no imagination when it comes to their songwriting most of the time. It's simple: this is just Hybrid Theory with a few minor tweaks. For example, "Don't Stay" is just "One Step Closer" but with more contrived anger. Minus the instrumental "Session", you're given the same thing throughout, and when it's just beating the dead horse of Hybrid Theory, it's not very pleasant."Meteora" is nothing but a soulless rehash of the band's previous formula, which wasn't that good in the first place. Then there's "Numb", which closes off the album the same way that "Pushing Me Away" did previously. I was still in 8th grade and didn't know music outside of the [radio] box at the time.
I could literally distinguish parallels between certain tracks. It's completely unimaginative and does nothing, and unless Hybrid Theory is one of your favorites, don't even bother with this empty shell.Score: 2/10 Take a guess.Upon first listen, I liked this. Then, time came along, and with multiple singles getting radio treatment, this got old really quick, up to the point that my precious allowance money should have bought me something that lasts for longer than two spins.
What else is there to say this band sucks on every level listen to samples and see.if you like it jump of a cliff. This music is total garbage, how anyone can stand listening to it is beyond me.
#2. WELL WHAT CAN I SAY IM A LINKIN PARK FAN SO YOU COULD SAY THAT THIS IS A BIASED REVIEW. ANYWAYS. WHY WASTE MONEY ON SOMETHING YOU DONT LIKE.
AND I LOVE THE OTHER SONGS AS WELL BUT THOSE ARE MY TOP 5. :D I BOUGHT THE CD BECAUSE I HEARD THE SONGS AND LIKED EM. SOMEWHERE I BELONG.5.BREAKING THE HABIT. NUMB #4.
I LOVE MOST OF THE SONGS IN THIS CD. #3. HAHAHA. DONT STAY.
FAINT. HYBRID THEORY IS STILL MY FAVORITE CD BUT METEORA DEFINETELY COMES IN SECOND. MY #1.
I bought this cd because it has a lot of my favorite songs on it.
This album just rejustifies that fact. Linkin Park has always been one of my favorite bands.
