Advantages: They are quite energetic, its a good cd with lots of good songs on it
Disadvantages: Its not for everyone's taste

...I personally am quite a big fan of Linkin' Park. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions and I can understand why Linkin' Park might not be of their taste in music. Anyway, I have decided to write this op on the 6 guy band to get across my view (plus I needed something else to write about lol). THE BAND: Linkin' Park is not just a rock band. This is generally what that they are seen as. The band members describe their music as a "cross-section of many genres; a hybrid of what the six of us have grown up on" explain the lads of Linkin' Park. The title of their lastest album (and its original band name), "Hybrid Theory" describes both the "6 piece's" artistic goal and its approach to making music. Linkin' Park's sound, a 'melting pot' of heavey alternative rock, hip-hop and electronic flourishes is completely their own... Read review

Advantages: Deep, meaningful content and an enjoyable, distinctive sound in some tracks...
Disadvantages: ...some of the changes are quite drastic and there's a tendency towards soppy behaviour.

...Minutes to Midnight is a step away from traditional nu-metal beginnings for Linkin Park, signifying a change in direction and a shift in position, allowing for a political voice to assist them with their move to the next level in tangibility. But are they crawling towards acceptance on their knees, or one step closer to the world realising them for the talent that they are? Linkin Park are an American band, mainly catagorised as "nu-metal", who have released two albums previously. Formed in 1996, their previous works include Hybrid Theory in 2000 and Meteora in 2003. Tracklist: 1 "Wake" – 1:40 2 "Given Up" – 3:09 3 "Leave Out All the Rest" – 3:29 4 "Bleed It Out" – 2:44 5 "Shadow of the Day" – 4:49 6 "What I've Done" – 3:25 7 "Hands Held High" – 3:53 8 "No More Sorrow" – 3:41 9 "Valentine's Day" – 3:16 10 "In...

Advantages: It's Linkin Park. And I like it.
Disadvantages: It features some people who I've never heard of who aren't all that brill.

...Linkin Park is a 6 piece band hailing from the U.S of A and they just happen to be one of my favourite bands so expect a degree of bias in this op. Having had phenomenal success with their debut album (the multi-platinum “Hybrid Theory”) Linkin Park came under close scrutiny with their latest release “Reanimation” – their offering of a remix album. Whilst critics may accuse L.P of selling fans short and “doing a Limp Bizkit” by merely regurgitating certain songs in a bid to cash in some more, I would defy any such claims. Not only does this album feature several potential singles but a hell of a lot of work has gone into creating a totally different sound for each and every song on it. Besides which, Limp Bizkit is crap. Linkin Park is not. The CD itself contains 20 tracks, 5 of which are merely fillers consisting of an opening sequence... Read review
