. Anywho, Any1 else like 'em?

Linkin Park rock!!! One of my favourite bands ever. They have a new album coming out soon (can't wait). Numb is my favourite song, that or carosel. (or master of puppets by metalica, but thats another story)

OLP · 10-10-2005 5:53pm

I wouldn't call 'em punk, i wouldn't even call 'em emo, i'd call 'em not punk thats what i'd call 'em.

PowerHouseDan · 10-10-2005 6:00pm

I imagine "Suck" would be the more operative word here.

They're nothing but a pop group dressed up as rock, or whatever you'd want to consider them. Simple pop songs with big catchy choruses, but it's got guitars and a sort of "Shouty" singer to rope in the dopes. :rolleyes:

I quite liked that one song, you know, the one with the screaming, and the angst.

mc nuggets · 10-10-2005 6:46pm

Wasn't this thread in punk earlier???? Now i'm confused. They're definately not pop though. I'd say closer to rock. Not metal or punk, just rock.

Nightwish · 10-10-2005 6:58pm

Linkin Park aren't punk. They're classed as Nu-Metal. I liked "Hybrid Theory" but then again I was young and impressionable when that was released. I bought "Meteora" and I will have to give them credit for "Breaking The Habit". Its class, but the rest of the album ->*retches*

mc nuggets · 10-10-2005 7:11pm

I like them because they're different. Not metal not rock (definatly not pop) but a mix of each. Music is supposed to be enjoyable. I like a bit of diversity now and then. (o.k ramble over)

Linkin park are not in the least bit credible as a rock band and we really saw there true colours when they cloaborated on an album with jay-z. If you went up to a hardcore punk and said that linkin park are a great punk band you'd get your arse handed to you on a plate and in my honest opinion they are one of the worst "Rock" bands on the planet!!!

They're not the worst band I've heard. Very MTV friendly. Definately not punk

Oh forgot about jay-z, ouch. Oh........ yeah. I regret what i said now. I still like they're older songs. Though they definately made a big mistake with jay-z. Disgraceful.

Nightwish · 10-10-2005 7:36pm

yeah that Jay-Z thing was pure sh!te. Just filler til their next album.

mickymg2003 · 10-10-2005 7:37pm

Ye and those jay-Z songs were plasterd all over Kerrang&Scuzz so ther was really no getting away from the horror of it all!!!

Ah Scuzz, the only semi-decent music channel on Sky.

I will admit I liked the Reanimation album more than Hybrid Theory. It has way better versions of "Crawling" and "In The End".

mc nuggets · 10-10-2005 7:46pm

Why oh why did they did they even contemplate a single. Let alone a whole album. Sadly I saw Linkin park on the cover and i did buy it what is my penance.

mickymg2003 · 10-10-2005 7:47pm

Ye scuzz is a cool channel but kinda low budget!!!Does nobody notice the videos of metallica live that look and sound like they were recorded on somebodys handycam!!!
I just dont like those linkin park songs full stop.

you have to learn the whole album off by heart to prove you are truly repentant

Ooh, ooh, and the one with the screaming, angst and rap, that was nice too.

The thing that I find funny about Linkin Park is, while their lyrics are mostly about feeling isolated, angry and suicidal, one of their album's inlays (Hybrid Theory methinks) has about four pages of "thank yous" from each member of the band...

whats the "thank yous" got to do with the lyrics? They are written mainly by Chester Bennington who was a suicidal, angry, sexually abused, drug addicted teen. That means he can't thank people for getting him where he is now?

honru · 10-10-2005 10:26pm

Just found it hard to fathom that they were actually going through so much suffering is'all.

Never knew Benington was sexually abused etc. though, yet his same angsty feelings will live on.
