In the end, it doesn’t even matter

Meteora was also a decent album. I stopped listening after that. Hybrid Theory is something else though. Reanimation was also dope

I really liked minutes to midnight. A lot more introspective and mature.

Meteors was fantastic! But yes, after that, it kinda fell off.

Song is 24 years old maybe the meme need to be updated. Me at 39

He surely doesn't look 30. More like a 15 yo's concept of 30.

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago (2 children)

Or 30, but with a meth addiction between ages 22 and 29.

The lead singer really was dealing with something.

Me at 30+ listening to new Linkin Park with the scientologist and sexual assault enabler:

"this shit sucks"

I liked her until I found out she was batshit. Bummer! Easy enough to listen to other bands I guess .

There are 30 year old Linkin park fans? I figured they were all 40 at minimum

[–] [email protected] 11 points 2 months ago

30 year old LP listener reporting!

Hybrid theory came out in 2000. Assuming a kid is 11 when they enter middle school, that would make a lot of mid 30s fans

[–] [email protected] 9 points 2 months ago (1 children)

I played so much unreal tournament on my Pentium 4 while listening to them

When 'Lost' dropped, it really spoke to where I was emotionally at the time. Chester out here like "Even in death, I still serve."

Never fails that about this time every year I give Hybrid Theory a listen. Had such an impact on me when it came out that it seems to have left a permanent mark on the change from summer to autumn for me.

[–] [email protected] 14 points 2 months ago

Reanimation is also still awesome.

One thing that I always noted with Linkin Park is that most of their later albums seemed to divide opinions in the fanbase.

This always struck me as a good thing because they never really released the same sounding album twice (their first two, most popular albums being the exception). They always changed it up.

Their more electronic sounding albums are really underrated IMO. I haven't really listened to them in years, but I used to love their music.

I still remember the shock and sadness when hearing of Chester's death. He was a beast of a vocalist.

[–] [email protected] 7 points 2 months ago

I didn’t love them forever ago, but I rather like their new single “The Emptiness Machine”. I don’t follow music so I didn’t know they had lost their lead singer until yesterday. I heard the song and thought, “Linkin Park doesn’t have a woman for a lead singer….”

[–] [email protected] 6 points 2 months ago

I still like the Jay-Z mashup album

[–] [email protected] 5 points 2 months ago (1 children)

The same with me. But I'm 37. And in-between there were like 15 years when I thought it was crap.

I wasn’t really into the scream-singing, but Mike Shinoda’s raps are fire

[–] peteypete420 5 points 2 months ago

Replace the album with Green Days dookie and you have me! (Never mind the additional years...)
