Vocals for this band sound VERY flat and the lyricsĪre really, really awful. "Paper Cut" is decent, "One Step Closer" is bareable,īut "With You" is just a song i cannot enjoy. One-dimensional it sounds, despite all the electronicīeats and noises. Every time i hear this, iĬan't help thinking about how uninspired and If Limp Bizkit andīands like them didn't exist, i probably would haveĮnjoyed this album more. Noises are cool, and the choruses are catchy, but this
When i first this album, i thought it probablyĭeserved a 6. Especially with my gonorrhea acting up!!! HA HEHEHE!!! F The verses are unrememberable and theĬhoruses are catchy as heck because they are really loud and follow pre-established Sounds pretty much identical to that song. "Crawling," right? "CRAW-LING IN-MY SKIIIIIIIIN!" Well, the entire rest of the album But those bombastic, pained choruses don't go away! You know Mindless, forgettable thudding and the far-too-earnest rapping starts to sound reallyĭamn stupid. Then after track three, the neat electronic melodies suddenly disappear, the riffs turn This is such a wonderful day, this September 10th, 2001). Years and years! Ha ha! Can you imagine having any reason to think of the word Sound effect of crickets making cricket noises, to signify that nobody has heard the lastįew Anthrax albums and that, in fact, nobody has even THOUGHT of the word "anthrax" in Tunes from the last few Anthrax albums - YOU know the ones I'm talking about! (insert TheĪlternate between white fellow rapping and generic-voiced but note-hitting singing, andĬhoruses are REALLY anthemic, soaring and angst-ridden. Melodies, neat techno/industrial noises, rap beats and heavy metallic riffing.
The first three songs will blow me away with their exciting mixture of neat electronic When you shove the CD in your dick-go-pop, Nu-Metal was actually a worse genre than Rap-Metal (I know, you heard me right) Won't the kids just "dig it"?Īnyway I just wanted to say how glad I am that this style of music is dead. So they're either stupid or some corporate jock's wet dream. Jeez I know the internet is a good way to get your band "out there", but that's absurd. However the domain "" hadĪlready been taken, and to buy it from the owners cost more than the bandĬould afford, so they changed the spelling to Linkin Park.- If you want toĪNOTHER THING! plz post this on your online thing, plz and the reason they picked this spelling? Because it got in the way of their marketing plans? Eventually, they settled on Lincoln Park, suggested byīennington because after band practice he would have to drive past Lincoln Someĭiscarded ideas were Clear, Probing Lagers, Ten PM Stocker and Platinum Issue with a band called Hybrid they were forced to change their name. At first theyĬalled themselves 'Hybrid Theory' after the addition of Bennington (the ideaīeing that they were a hybrid of hard rock and rap), but due to a trademark The group Lincoln Park if the website was'nt already taken. Reader fist off, the do not "mis-spell" Linkin Park. Men who go by the misspelling "Linkin Park." So this week's entry in the rap-metal marathon is a bunch of humorless, stone-faced You monsters use when trying to drive a genius insane - I'm sticking to my buns on this Statement: Rap-metal is not going to go down in history as a good idea.ĭon't have to call me a blind soothsayer or a fool on wings or any of those other That may offend you, but I'm feeling it deep (spelled backwards is "peed"!) inside andįorce of my will is nearly splitting my body into two halves with discord.
I'm about to make a crazy-eyed, controversial statement
