New Linkin Park?

I'm not a big fan of the new album. One of the things that made me like them in the first place was the fact that they had a pretty unique sound. Now they sound like they should be touring with Breaking Benjamin. And they pushed Shinoda into the background which was a mistake. Overall I'm pretty disappointed with the new album.

Their new album is iffy, I do like track 7 (Hands Held High) though.

6-8 is a nice stretch. I like the fact that there is some political commentary in it. I like what they're saying, but I don't think it would have hurt to let Shinoda say more of it.

I don't care for the new stuff. Maybe it will grow upon me in the coming weeks.

I like that new song that I've been hearing on DC101 24/7, What I've Done. I might look into getting the new c.d.

Well the mods got busy with personal stuff for a while that didn't allow us to really pursue it the way we had hoped to so we put it off and unfortunately it just never materialized.

It did get us Tony McGee as a regular contributor though so that was good.

The big merger between skins.com and extremeskins kinda threw a damper on things as well if I remember correctly, since we basically got locked out of being able to send JC to camp.

tickets for the Projekt Revolution tour featuring Linkin Park, My Chemical Romance, Taking Back Sunday, HIM, Placebo, Julien-K, Mindless Self Indulgence, The bled, Saosin, Styles of Beyond, Madina Lake, and other bands went on sale today. I'll be there 4 the Tues Aug. 14th @ the VA Beach amphitheater if ayone else is going.
and I've only listened to half of it so far but I'm digging the cd more than I thought I might from the way people on the radio have been talking about it.

This is just my opinion, and I'm sorry if I upset any big Linkin Park fans, but I pretty much think that they're one of the worst bands I've ever heard in my entire life. I think someone described it as "nu metal." Well, I think that whole genre sucks. I'm 22, but I grew up listening classic rock bands like LedZep, Allman Brothers, Lynyrd Skynyrd, you know, good bands. When I hear these new bands who aren't nearly as technically proficient with their instruments, and just flat out cannot rock as hard, well it I get a little sad to see that this is what rock music has evolved into. Every time Linkin Park records a new song, a puppy dies :(

That really doesn't offend me at all, everyone is entitled to their own opinion. Personally, I don't get into much of the older stuff. I like Hendrix and The Doors, but that's about as far as I go. I, personally, don't like Skynyrd at all.

Yep, to each his own especially when it comes to music.

I really liked classic rock stuff back in high school, The Doors, Led Zep, Pink Floyd, etc.

Over time music evolves, personally I like to follow that evolution rather than pinning myself down to just one period of time or genre of music.
