Yoh Guys. So much hate for Linkin Park. Can you not appreciate them for being absolutely incredible artists.
They are innovators in their own right. Its not often you hear a band mesh rap, with melodic piano and heavy guitar riffs, with electronic drums . . . I think Steven said it quite right:
"Linkin Park have changed from a standard musical instrument based band to one that basis itself on computers but they have kept with the times and done a good job as well. If your a musical purist then run away quickly." They have 44mil likes on Facebook so they must be doing something right
You guys should actually Youtube Mike Shinoda, the man is an absolute genius. By far one of the best rock producers of date. I am pretty much going to see him. But you can't deny the band is not good. They are very melodic, and their stuff is easy to remember. I think many more bands should be like them (not necessarily musically)
Must say I must agree with this. Sure as musicians we might not like them because they are not "musically technical" enough or whatever. But they're old stuff was innovative and unique imo. Not so fond of the new material.
