How can you hate lyrics that saved million of lives. Speaking as someone they saved. Give the lyrics a listen and look at it from the point of view of depression.
As a major fan of Linkin Park (Top 0.05% of listeners worldwide on Spotify): I enjoyed both reactions and I think some people in the comments are overreacting and/or didn't watch the whole thing (recently in particular). I hope they haven't deterred you from continuing and I look forward to any more.
Chester(lead singer) had a bad childhood so a lot of the lyrics are about that. He was sexually abused/molested from the ages of 7-13. His parents divorced when he was 11 and his mom abandoned him. His dad got custody of him but was working all the time so he was alone a lot. He started drinking and doing heavy drugs when 10:14 he was 11. He had depression and Suicidal ideation. He even attempted suicide a few times. When he finally did move back in with his mom at 17; her reaction was that he looked like a Holocaust survivor because he was so thin and gaunt. These lyrics are his way of getting those "demons" out. He also knew that other people could relate to them. Personally, the songs on Hybrid Theory and Meteora saved my life because I was suicidal also. Just letting you know the history before you judge.
You would instantly turn a fan when you compare the studio versions to the live versions, lots of extra stuff that isn’t in the original versions. Edit: also listen to faint rock am ring 2007, trust me, you in for a treat.
Here is the order in age of the band members from oldest to youngest and their ages when this concert happened. Chester Bennington 27 years old (March 20, 1976) Dave (Phoenix) Farrell 26 years old (February 8, 1977) Mike Shinoda 26 years old (February 11, 1977) Joe Hahn 26 years old (March 15, 1977) Brad Delson 25 years old (December 1, 1977) Rod Bourdon 24 years old (January 20, 1979)
The original footage was shot in a 480p format but for DVD, it was scaled down. The version they uploaded in 2007 was in 480p but UA-cam scaled it down to the standard 360p that rendered it as 480p. They used AI to upscale the original 480p version to 1080p FHD SDR.
Ok ok, huge LP fan, like i really consider myself a hardcore LP fan since I've been listening to them since before i was 5 yrs old (Im 23 now, so i was born 2001), thnx to my parents. But in all honesty, losing my Idol Chester back in 2017 and im sure for thousands of ppl around the world had all of us in tears and devastation, his death was a literal shock heard round the world, but i still praise the band as my #1 favorite band of all time and that will never change since they were practically my gateway band to early 2000s nu-metal and rock in general. But on another note, looking at how youve changed your whole perspective on the band with a legendary live performance that really shaped the band (Yes, i actually live in Houston, Texas), its been a fun ride with this video, but imma tell you this, you now cannot say you're a Linkin Park "Hater" cuz this video just goes to show just how much you like and repsect LP as a whole. And yes, i know you poke fun at em here and there, im not one of the fans who will usually get offended by all that unless i know its real and when i know something needs to be said to help others view anything of the band or their songs at another perspective, i will, rightfully so. With that said, id say keep going down that Linkin Park rabbit hole man. There's a lot of ground to cover. Actually, some of the parts of songs they performed that you said you havent heard actually comes from their sophomore album "Reanimation", which is basically a remix album of their debut album "Hybrid Theory" and was released before the start of their 3rd album "Meteora". Youre welcome for that piece of advice. Stay cool my friend. Peace✌😎
LP are my favourite band since I was in highschool. Seen them live twice I hope you like them, but to us, it isn't just music Happy birthday Chester (yesterday)
Think at this point he's just playing a character for clout. He likes every song he listens to. He's just feeding the stans because it gets him clicks.
Their lyrics are great and have helped a lot of people in difficult times, the fact that you call their lyrics lame while wearing a Nirvana shirt is priceless. I have a feeling you're one of the people that hated on Linkin Park because you thought it was the cool thing to do.
36:00 With You will always be my favorite LP song, it also has nice different live versions, each one with a different texture (as you said for the verse's synths)
Ok, not trying to be an ass at all since you come across as trying to have an open mind while listening. I'm one of those nosy assholes though lol. I heard you mention your band and then noticed your channel you have links. One being to soundcloud. Now, the music that is on the soundcloud, if that's your band, sounds like a mixture of the same industrial influence as you'd hear in Linkin Park, but mixed with metal, and post hardcore (Fear Before The March of Flames, From First to Last just without some of the same melodic threads) and bands like Meshuggah and Children of Bodom (just without the melodic element) so I find your reticence towards Linkin Parks music quite surprising since I hear overlapping types of influence on your soundcloud (which sounds like stuff I'd have listened to 12-15 years ago before I got old).
1:05:00 A big part that separates great performers is they put a lot of focus on *expressing*, not just reciting. So maybe a couple times per concert, they probably think about the appropriate alternate vocalization to give off the emotion, maybe even trade out a phrase for something like it. It's probably sometimes a spontaneous thing for some performers, or thought of ahead of time for others. I think that's a big appeal of instrument solos, too-they get to jam out and play them differently than their recordings, so they're in the moment, connected to the fans. It's something to consider, if your audience has heard the song before.
I survived to the end of this video, mostly with my feelings unscathed. Honestly, you have every right to be a bit of a cunt on your own videos, and you're entitled to be wrong (jk). I don't mind hearing about what people don't like, so long as it feels thought through. Things like "Hmm, this feels a bit repetitive by now" or "I find the lyrics on this verse a bit cringe", or "I'm missing some X on this"; all that is absolutely fine. I might agree or disagree, but it's concrete, considered criticism. The only criticisms I really can't stand is: 1) when grown-ass people haven't outgrown their teenage "taste as identity"-phase, and think in terms of certain bands being for certain "types" of people, and rejecting things based solely on that; 2) when people throw some toxic masculinity into that mix (i.e. "singer sounds like a fucking girl, what is this weak shit? I listen to REAL metal, like a MAN!"); and finally 3) when people have entirely wrong/disproven ideas about a band that they repeat as absolute fact. Like when people repeat debunked claims, like Linkin Park being some nu-metal version of a record label manufactured "boyband", that they had ghostwriters; and finally my eternal nemesis, the idea that the band "sold out" when they changed their sound after the first two albums. Linkin Park had one of the best selling debut albums of all time, and followed that up with a popular and acclaimed second album; but yeah sure, changing their sound, as opposed to sticking to the winning formula, was about "selling out". Linkin Park struggled to get signed, to get the label to accept their sound as it was. Afterwards, they had to fight to be allowed to change, to be allowed to evolve and grow as artists, and not be stuck in a box. Hate it, like it, love it; all fine with me, just so long as people don't act like these guys didn't fight tooth and nail to make the music they wanted to make. I hope you react to Meteora; or at least compare the track listing with the track listing of Live In Texas, and pick out the songs not on there. There's one song in particular, Nobody's Listening, that I'm really curious to hear your thoughts on. Regardless, thank you for taking the time to see this performance, and thanks for trying to keep an open mind. I think you were for the most part very fair; criticising, but also giving credit when there was something you did enjoy. I also really liked how specific you were in your 'praise', pointing out this instrument at that time. And of course, thank you for showing Mr. Hahn some appreciation, he's quite overlooked. Until next time!
no one : LP haters , i hate LP , also LP haters when they hear the songs , thats actually good .... DAMN MAN YOU HATE IT OR YOU LOVE IT TAKE A DECISION
I feel like he actually likes linkin park and is just pretending to hate it, because every song he’s bobbed his head and said I think this is a good song before he’s even listened to it. Another thing is he says he warms up to mike rapping but barely says anything about Chester’s vocals which makes me believe he secretly likes mikes but is trying to play off the hate thing
Hmmm, I can see why you don't like lyrics, it's too much on a feelings and relationship and simple side for my taste. I don't understand what you mean by "rapping is lame", since Mike is objectively a great rapper, is it lyrics again or rap is lame genre in general for you? I discovered LP before I learned English, so yeah, it's all about music for me. There are no bands with over 5 song I like in their entire discography, and even the worst LP album still has 3 songs I like.
My favorite song performance of this concert is A Place for my Head. Chester just goes crazy with the song. Chester was known for his screaming. He had the voice of an Angel and the scream of a demon. Chester had a lot of mental health problems from his childhood. Chester and Mike wrote the songs about what the band members was going through then or from their childhoods. The song Points of Authority is Chester sticking his middle finger up to the boy who sexually abused him for 6 years from the age of 7 to the age of 13. Brad wears headphones on stage and in their music videos to help him stay focus on what he is play. He has a new pair of headphones done for each music video. The DJ Joe Hahn is also the music video director for Linkin Park. He directed about 90% of their music videos.
I saw Summer Sanitarium in Houston. Numb hadn't blown up yet which is why it wasn't chosen as the closer or encore. I am a huge LP fan but what I remember most is the Limp Bizkit show. It was absolutely crazy. Fred Durst literally ran around the entire stadium in the crowd during the show.
Nice video! Always great to see someone try new stuff, even if they like or don't, checking things out is really really important to make an objective opinion... i liked it a lot! By the way, those things on the guitarist's head aren't headphones, those are his ears... legend says he used to wear headphones so much his ears turned into that!
During Place For My head Mike sings the lower harmony along with some other songs in this set. Later tours Phoenix the bassist started doing back up vocals as well on songs with 3 or more vocal harmonies. Also fun fact the Brad the guitarist still plays the guitar that was smashed at the end of Place for my head. Theres a video on a much later tour where you can see him playing it with it glued back together. Final fact in this set the versions of Pushing Me Away, One Step Closer, Crawling, and I think 1 or 2 more were mashups of the remix versions on their Reanimation album which came out in between Hybrid Theory and Meteora. The version on the album of One Step Closer that they did also featured Jonathan Davis from Korn doing the bridge part.
I felt the same about linkin Park. Numb fell into my playlist. And although I heard the song million times before. It was like the song was written about my situation years before I even knew my "wife" I would say the lyrics were dramatic. Let's be honest the drama was reality in his head. Definitely good song writing.
Big Time LP Fan here. Hello! First of all i'd like to say thanks for even taking the time to listen to Hybrid Theory and now Live in Texas. As a LP "Hater" it DOES take effort. And while I understand the frustration of LP Fans and them being mad at you, I think it's quite normal to defend their passion without any cost whatsoever. Heck even I have the urge to be like "NO! THEY ARE AWESOME". At the end of the day, thats what fans do. I admit I have NOT watched the full video's of both but I skipped through and to some songs you were indeed bopping and digging a few parts which is a good thing :) Makes me happy. I don't truly think youre a hater either, but more that you just initially disliked their directions whatsoever? You don't really strike me as a hater. And hey, I disliked a lot of stuff back then, stuff that I like now - who knows maybe you become a fan someday :P (Or not, who knows, who knows). Anyway, thanks for trying to listen to what we love!
@@codas at the end of the day, i guess thats what reactors do. "hater" or not. (i tried to put the quotes on hater on purpose because you never know). i dont mind him trying to rack up his channel by targeting big bands or singers. its what you (mostly) gotta do on social media. but i just tried to be informative and genuine no matter if its my favorite band :) but i understand your concern anyway. so all good :) !
Dude started dissing LP from the first second of the video and then went like "I like this sing, I like that riff, I like this scream , I'm into this, into that ect. Sounds like the guy that accidentally kissed his cousin at summer camp, liked it too much and won't even dare to admit it🤣🤣🤣🤣
Dear comments section. This is not a real person. This is a 'I have a bad take on everything but people hate watch me so I am successful' kind of channel. Just take note of the channel name and never click again.
This is from Huston and Dallas Texas. The best performance of Faint is Rock AM Ring 2007. That was the singer of Metallica getting back at Linkin Park for pranking them at the concert before this one. Metallica's singer's bodyguard helped Linkin Park prank them. The bodyguard's nickname was Hellboy because of his size. Mike Shinoda does talk about the prank in an interview he did in the last 5 years. The bodyguard use to work with Linkin Park early in their career.
@@ShadyDogg Kurt Cobain's lyrics are poetry, and some songs have lyrics that don't have a specific narrative. Cobain would often adjust the words to be better lyrics, and sometimes include one line from a poem followed by something he found silly.
@@ShadyDogg they are random. And don’t hold much meaning. And I don’t have a problem with that. Love Nirvana. But if you are judging a band on their lyrics (which are great IMO), you can’t be wearing a Nirvana t shirt, a band who didn’t care about what they were saying but rather would use words as way to communicate the music.
Linkin Park would actually love you because it's obvious you're passionate about music. This is just scratching the surface of their material, so I hope you get a chance to do a deep dive and come out with something you love.
plays the hater, played their music even before he got to this point of recording.. its like meeting Amber Whoe-red and crapping herself with adult diapers.
I feel like a lot of people didnt even watch the video or clicked off as soon as you started insulting the fanbase but you clearly enjoyed the show which really shows how incredible they were live that even people who actively dislike them are having a great time. I can see how the Lyrics can seem overdramatic or corny to some but they are just true emotions that resonate with many people out there. If you want to watch more of them live i recommend Rock am Ring 2004 or 2007, Milton Keynes 2008 or Red Square 2011
THANK YOU! A ton of the fanbase has been attacking him and its just proving his point. Also hes saying the lyrics are dramatic FOR HIM, he never said anything about Chester. Also I have respect for listening to 2 albums even if he doesn't love them like we do
Whether you like LP or this type of music in general doesn’t matter this is top five greatest performances ever even if blended from two shows, demonstrates consistency. Chester was god-like with vocals
The 3rd album Minutes to Midnight is verrryyy different from the previous 2. I personally really like the album. If you aren’t a huge fan of Mike’s rapping you will probably like MTM as it’s pretty much just Chester. It’s a great album. Would really like to see you react to Minutes to Midnight.
The thing about Linkin Park is they have a lot of different genres of music, they've never been bound to one sound. I recommend some of their later stuff for more electronic/pop rock music if you're into that. Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns are good example of the electronic usage, and the lyrics on A Thousand Suns are about nuclear warfare. Which is pretty cool. If you want to hear a more poppy rock album that's more down to earth, then One More Light is perfect. Lots to choose from
I don't like this kind of person who says "I hate Linkin Park" and at the beginning of all songs, I know this song and I like it"... or at the end, " He got a good scream, the song is good"... I think he never didn't really listen songs...
Just FYI LP was one of the first EVER bands doing CGI in theyr song clips. Most of the BIG names refused this tech afraid of progress. LP put some fundamental changes in music. RAP can exist with metal and can be something bigger in lyrics. Jz knew that and follow the way bcs THIS IS THE WAY. mic drop signing off enjoy LP :)
This guy sounds so fake and disrespectful. He doesn't even have a basic background knowledge of who he's talking about. Even though it's his opinion, mocking the lyrics that way in the video is a disrespect towards Chester. Be more professional.
A couple things- Firstly, Songs you don’t know? You know. In between the 1st and 2nd albums, they released a remix album which was more hip hop oriented versions of the songs from the first album (with a few only on the European/non US released version of the first album as well) Secondly, Meteora, their 2nd album is a bit heavier and way more polished. So you may enjoy it more in that respect.
“Lyrics are lame and over dramatic” wait till mans finds out these lyrics are a cry for help from Chester and that he killed himself.
I’m surprised he doesn’t already know that. Guess it shows how fresh he is.
Wait til you find out he didn't kill himself.

One of their greatest concerts ever for sure
I hate linkin park, the sound, the name, all of it.
5min later: I like this it’s great
This dude loves the hater role. That was the gentlest hating I've ever seen
Linkin Park is the best Band ever, in my Opinion. And Chesters singing is incredible❤❤❤ I love him!
Him: I think Linkin park is lame
also him: *Enjoying most tracks*
Linkin park is so fuckin good it turn a hater into a lover in like seconds 😂😂😂
How can you hate lyrics that saved million of lives. Speaking as someone they saved. Give the lyrics a listen and look at it from the point of view of depression.
Grow up and let people have their own opinions
“I HATE Linkin park” proceeds to like every song played…
rage baiting at its finest

What a passive aggressive retarded comment to make
@@ppaulisdeadd5879you must be new. This is the youtube comment section. Hi
I can't believe he was a hater at one point😂

Chester was the sickest vocalist ever
The title of the video should have been ''Hater coming out of the cave''. LP is one of the best bands of ''recent music''. Chester is a Legend.
Chester(lead singer) had a bad childhood so a lot of the lyrics are about that.
He was sexually abused/molested from the ages of 7-13. His parents divorced when he was 11 and his mom abandoned him. His dad got custody of him but was working all the time so he was alone a lot.

1:13:56 no. They mixed it with the remix 1stp klsr. From their remix album reanimation. you should check it "1stp klsr" sicker than the og
I was going to say this, a couple of these songs are closer to the Reanimation versions than Hybrid Theory. Great album.
Hmmm, I can see why you don't like lyrics, it's too much on a feelings and relationship and simple side for my taste.

There are no bands with over 5 song I like in their entire discography, and even the worst LP album still has 3 songs I like.
My favorite song performance of this concert is A Place for my Head. Chester just goes crazy with the song. Chester was known for his screaming. He had the voice of an Angel and the scream of a demon.
Chester had a lot of mental health problems from his childhood. Chester and Mike wrote the songs about what the band members was going through then or from their childhoods. The song Points of Authority is Chester sticking his middle finger up to the boy who sexually abused him for 6 years from the age of 7 to the age of 13.
Brad wears headphones on stage and in their music videos to help him stay focus on what he is play. He has a new pair of headphones done for each music video.
The DJ Joe Hahn is also the music video director for Linkin Park. He directed about 90% of their music videos.
Linkin park is far better live than in studio versions
You hate LP but yet you wear a Nirvana shirt you should really hate on that
I saw Summer Sanitarium in Houston. Numb hadn't blown up yet which is why it wasn't chosen as the closer or encore. I am a huge LP fan but what I remember most is the Limp Bizkit show. It was absolutely crazy. Fred Durst literally ran around the entire stadium in the crowd during the show.
my favorite band
Hybrid theory is legendary but Meteora is better imo, similar style but a lot more polished
im 66 years old linkin park fan and love there sound.
If I live to see time travel invented, I am so going to a LP concert! ❤
I'm a big fan of Linkin Park
The thing in his ear is so he can hear himself because the instruments are extremely loud and he won’t be able to hear his own voice
Correct their earlier performances around 1998-2000 i believe he sung without the in ears and couldn't sing on pitch
Nice video! Always great to see someone try new stuff, even if they like or don't, checking things out is really really important to make an objective opinion... i liked it a lot!
By the way, those things on the guitarist's head aren't headphones, those are his ears... legend says he used to wear headphones so much his ears turned into that!
During Place For My head Mike sings the lower harmony along with some other songs in this set. Later tours Phoenix the bassist started doing back up vocals as well on songs with 3 or more vocal harmonies. Also fun fact the Brad the guitarist still plays the guitar that was smashed at the end of Place for my head. Theres a video on a much later tour where you can see him playing it with it glued back together. Final fact in this set the versions of Pushing Me Away, One Step Closer, Crawling, and I think 1 or 2 more were mashups of the remix versions on their Reanimation album which came out in between Hybrid Theory and Meteora. The version on the album of One Step Closer that they did also featured Jonathan Davis from Korn doing the bridge part.
I felt the same about linkin Park. Numb fell into my playlist. And although I heard the song million times before. It was like the song was written about my situation years before I even knew my "wife"
I would say the lyrics were dramatic. Let's be honest the drama was reality in his head. Definitely good song writing.
Big Time LP Fan here. Hello! First of all i'd like to say thanks for even taking the time to listen to Hybrid Theory and now Live in Texas. As a LP "Hater" it DOES take effort. And while I understand the frustration of LP Fans and them being mad at you, I think it's quite normal to defend their passion without any cost whatsoever. Heck even I have the urge to be like "NO! THEY ARE AWESOME". At the end of the day, thats what fans do. I admit I have NOT watched the full video's of both but I skipped through and to some songs you were indeed bopping and digging a few parts which is a good thing :) Makes me happy. I don't truly think youre a hater either, but more that you just initially disliked their directions whatsoever? You don't really strike me as a hater. And hey, I disliked a lot of stuff back then, stuff that I like now - who knows maybe you become a fan someday :P (Or not, who knows, who knows). Anyway, thanks for trying to listen to what we love!
Bro he literally using linkin park to get views cause he knows they good. He's a cloud chaser targeting big bands
@@codas at the end of the day, i guess thats what reactors do. "hater" or not. (i tried to put the quotes on hater on purpose because you never know). i dont mind him trying to rack up his channel by targeting big bands or singers. its what you (mostly) gotta do on social media. but i just tried to be informative and genuine no matter if its my favorite band :) but i understand your concern anyway. so all good :) !
49:50 Yes, you've heard that rap before. It's Pushing Me Away, which is on Hybrid Theory. This is the remix version.
To all the critics of this video, make sure you have at least 2 hours in hand before you start watching this. Maybe, you would no longer be a hater!
I love old school LP more than their last material. They can rock! Chester’s voice is amazing. You said it best, it works.
I wish more people did full concert reactions, props to you, sir
"Lyrics are lame and over dramatic"
How dare you insult Chester Bennington's memory!!!
Dude started dissing LP from the first second of the video and then went like "I like this sing, I like that riff, I like this scream , I'm into this, into that ect. Sounds like the guy that accidentally kissed his cousin at summer camp, liked it too much and won't even dare to admit it🤣🤣🤣🤣
that's his whole bit, He pretends to hate whatever he is reacting to. It brings in viewers like you.
Dear comments section. This is not a real person. This is a 'I have a bad take on everything but people hate watch me so I am successful' kind of channel. Just take note of the channel name and never click again.
28:40 that was lars from metallica
This is from Huston and Dallas Texas. The best performance of Faint is Rock AM Ring 2007.
That was the singer of Metallica getting back at Linkin Park for pranking them at the concert before this one. Metallica's singer's bodyguard helped Linkin Park prank them. The bodyguard's nickname was Hellboy because of his size. Mike Shinoda does talk about the prank in an interview he did in the last 5 years. The bodyguard use to work with Linkin Park early in their career.
Guy talking lame lyrics wearing Nirvana t shirt, the band with the most random ass lyrics
What kinda bullshit opinions that
@@ShadyDogg Kurt Cobain's lyrics are poetry, and some songs have lyrics that don't have a specific narrative. Cobain would often adjust the words to be better lyrics, and sometimes include one line from a poem followed by something he found silly.
@@0000Neil whys that lame?
@@ShadyDogg they are random. And don’t hold much meaning. And I don’t have a problem with that. Love Nirvana. But if you are judging a band on their lyrics (which are great IMO), you can’t be wearing a Nirvana t shirt, a band who didn’t care about what they were saying but rather would use words as way to communicate the music.
Linkin Park would actually love you because it's obvious you're passionate about music. This is just scratching the surface of their material, so I hope you get a chance to do a deep dive and come out with something you love.
XERO and Hybrid Theory was the initial name of the band, changed it to LP for more recall in mainstream platform
Xero not zero
Xero not zero
@@deadlykitten5519 oh typo, I'm sorry
@@fredpaulaguilar7261 No worries
plays the hater,
played their music even before he got to this point of recording..
its like meeting Amber Whoe-red and crapping herself with adult diapers.
I feel like a lot of people didnt even watch the video or clicked off as soon as you started insulting the fanbase but you clearly enjoyed the show which really shows how incredible they were live that even people who actively dislike them are having a great time. I can see how the Lyrics can seem overdramatic or corny to some but they are just true emotions that resonate with many people out there. If you want to watch more of them live i recommend Rock am Ring 2004 or 2007, Milton Keynes 2008 or Red Square 2011
THANK YOU! A ton of the fanbase has been attacking him and its just proving his point. Also hes saying the lyrics are dramatic FOR HIM, he never said anything about Chester. Also I have respect for listening to 2 albums even if he doesn't love them like we do
Whether you like LP or this type of music in general doesn’t matter this is top five greatest performances ever even if blended from two shows, demonstrates consistency. Chester was god-like with vocals
I honestly think you would enjoy the progression to their third album “Minutes to Midnight” so I think you should go there next
The 3rd album Minutes to Midnight is verrryyy different from the previous 2. I personally really like the album. If you aren’t a huge fan of Mike’s rapping you will probably like MTM as it’s pretty much just Chester. It’s a great album. Would really like to see you react to Minutes to Midnight.
The thing about Linkin Park is they have a lot of different genres of music, they've never been bound to one sound. I recommend some of their later stuff for more electronic/pop rock music if you're into that. Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns are good example of the electronic usage, and the lyrics on A Thousand Suns are about nuclear warfare. Which is pretty cool. If you want to hear a more poppy rock album that's more down to earth, then One More Light is perfect. Lots to choose from
Man, this got into my recommends
I don't like this kind of person who says "I hate Linkin Park" and at the beginning of all songs, I know this song and I like it"... or at the end, " He got a good scream, the song is good"...
I think he never didn't really listen songs...
Just FYI LP was one of the first EVER bands doing CGI in theyr song clips. Most of the BIG names refused this tech afraid of progress. LP put some fundamental changes in music. RAP can exist with metal and can be something bigger in lyrics. Jz knew that and follow the way bcs THIS IS THE WAY. mic drop signing off enjoy LP :)
The guy in the bunny hat and Hulk hands was the drummer from Metallica.
Yes sir
Chester deposited his life and traumas in those lyrics 😢
I agree to this man though most of the riffs are to serve the song and Brad plays it that way, that goes along with the drums as well.
More like a lover than a hater😂
God. I wish they Re-Release this on Bluray/4K...
This guy sounds so fake and disrespectful. He doesn't even have a basic background knowledge of who he's talking about. Even though it's his opinion, mocking the lyrics that way in the video is a disrespect towards Chester.
Be more professional.
Agreed
It was Mike shinoda who wrote most of the lyrics but still yeah
love your reviews! bro, because of you now I'm always gonna remember Christina Aguilera when I listen to faint 😩😂
A couple things-
Firstly, Songs you don’t know? You know. In between the 1st and 2nd albums, they released a remix album which was more hip hop oriented versions of the songs from the first album (with a few only on the European/non US released version of the first album as well)
Secondly, Meteora, their 2nd album is a bit heavier and way more polished. So you may enjoy it more in that respect.
