Heh.
But nah, LP are one of those bands i dont listen to, but if one of their famous songs comes on (like in an iTunes shuffle or something) i will listen to it. Numb was pretty good, and JayZ just made it a COOL song that still gets played in clubs and stuff.
Its one of those albums ill download through alternative methods rather than actually purchase, OR will borrow it, listen to it and see if i like it first.

Opionion? Is that some kind of vegetable I've never heard of? :p
LP is pretty bad. I loooooved their album Hybrid Theory when I was younger though. Like... 11. Seriously, it was right after it was released and before they were even heard of on MTV2, much less a popular band on MTV, so I try to justify it that way... but I really can't stand them now. It's just really hyperproduced music. It sounds alright (the earlier stuff) but it feels like plastic.

Klaxons are ace - sound all of their own and AMAZING live. Linkin Park are commercial, overproduced (as mentioned previously) and one of those bands I used to like age 13 when I had no clue about music..
They're a fine example of a polished turd. All shiny and slick, but nonetheless, still a turd.

In all fairness, the Klaxons are the eptimone of commercial these days. :P Not to that say that's a reason to like/dislike them, as I'm quite enjoying the Myths of the Near Future album. In all honesty, though, they are just a tamer version of !!! who are far superior at this kind of thing.

I personally find !!! a bit hit&miss but they are ace at that space-funk-disco-sound.
I dunno, the epitome of commercial is more The Fratellis, but I do see what you mean ... I had the luck of seeing them really really early on, just after the first release of Gravity's Rainbow.. it was immense, best gig I've ever seen.
I'm quite enjoying Battles at the moment, never really bothered with them before.. and the sort of general glitchy french house stuff from Ed Banger records.
Linkin Park are still toss. Rap metal is generally toss as well :)

Well, no celeb HONESTLY can say s/he is in it to entertain people. I know the only reason I'd ever do anything like that would be for the money. But then I'm greedy. :smoking:
I used to like them when I was about 13, but I cant say I've listened to them since. Although I do quite like the numb/encore song they did with Jay-Z.
Oh god I feel unclean for saying that. I'll have to listen to some Mike Patton to make up for it.

It's INCREDIBLY simplistic, overdone and outright laughable.

See 'Under Pressure' by Queen & David Bowie for a political video done well and effectively.
I know you aren't, I'm not saying you can't like them - it really ****s me off when clueless shite bands like Green Day and Linkin Park attempt to do politics. Leave it to bands with talent yeah? (Green Day weren't bad but they've gone oh-so-downhill)

Yep, really like Modest Mouse's new one especially.
BUT, that's not why I'm in this thread! And it's not to trash talk a band like they came over to my house, slapped me, and said dirty things on the way out either!
I downloaded Linkin Park's new one a few days ago and have listened to it a fair bit. I'll be buying it when it comes out, so it's at least that good! Doing away with the turntable sounds and stuff doesn't seem to hurt 'em, and I like most of their new stuff. The overall pacing seems a bit slow... but some at least build to something a bit more upbeat... and there's still 4 good rock-outs on it (Given Up, Bleed it Out, What I've Done, and No More Sorrow). The two that don't really click with me are Valentine's Day and In Between... I'd trade those two for a good instrumental track and another with some kick. The ones that build nicely I think are In Pieces and The Little Things Give You Away. Leave Out All Rest and Shadow Of The Day are more downbeat but still very listenable. Not counting the intro, that leaves Hands Held High, one of the two songs that has some rappin' to it (Bleed it Out being the other), which is catchy but the anti-war message kind of bogs it down... nothing against the message, but it does seem a little tired, like I've heard this message over and over before.
I'm not a music snob by any means, but there's my take on it. :P And like a lot of you it seems, Linkin Park was sort of my 'gateway' band too... I had been sort of into music before, but it was hearing 'In The End' on the radio that seemed to open the floodgates.

Listened.
Seems to me like they ditched the nu-metal and went for the generic rock. Not impressed, but then I wasn't expecting much after hearing What I've Done.
I've got nothing against the 'Park, but they still don't seem to be trying very hard to push the envelope in any way, and seem content to instead stay on familiar ground. But that goes for so very bands around now, and if that's what it takes to be popular... =/
Still, like em or loathe em, you gotta admit Chester can ****in' scream.

Linkin Park don't really have what you could call "good songs". If you like one or a few of them, you're pretty much bound to like all but 1 or 2. They're consistent, if nothing else.

I saw their last album at my disc store, didn't bother to buy it.
I'd-loading it, out of 12 songs, only 2 are "ok"; The rest sucks really badly.
Edit: I think that half of the crap I dloaded were fake songs.
Edit 2: Wikipedia confirmed the band up loaded fake songs.

Well i have always liked LP from the age of like 11-12, in fact it was the first band i started listening to lol, my music tastes are pretty vast. I mean Hybrid Theory album was cracking, Meteora was good also but not as much as the first, I saw a DVD of them playing live in Texas, and it was an exellent performance. I just brought their latest, i have my doubts about it but ill let you know.

Hey it's what Nickelback do too. Chad even admitted to it.
Anyway, yes, Linkin Park are pretty terrible but just try your best to ignore it. I know it's hard considering they've sold over 15 million albums but in ten years time most of the people here will be saying, gawd did I even really like this stuff? :cheers:

Listened to it a couple more times and it's almost starting to grow on me. It still smacks of being over-procuced and under-creative, but it's not rubbish (IMO).
Anyway, I won't be buying it, they already got my money for the first two and they don't need any more ^_^

NOOO, i am quite disappointed. lp's winning formula is powerful rap and good singing chorus with good electronic rock. they totally cut back on that. how could they. some of the songs are alright, but nothing is spectacular. dam mike shinoda, where the fish was he...

QFT. I liked the new album (though what i've done is not really linkin-parky) but it definatly wasn't as good as the others. Bleed it out and given up (the first time I've heard **** in one of their songs)

I remember I was in a store, or some fast food place and one of their new songs came on. My friend said "Hey, this is one of linkin parks new songs" and I was like "Really?...... How come it doesnt suck?" and he replies "Yeah, its actually not complete crap"
This sums up my opinion of the band.

I listened to a few tracks at a friend's house. It's all really uninspired music, and very heavy-handed and preachy as far as lyrics go. Even more so than Meteora.
