I was never a big fan of theirs, bar a song here or there. I was passing the O2 in London in July 2017 and all the fans were out there waiting around to go in. They were singing their songs and having fun. It changed my perspective of what they were. Chester died a few weeks later. The band coming back is about breathing life into their legacy and fans choosing whether they engage with it or not. A large proportion of the base will have moved on, or it will have painful connections so the band coming back have an uphill struggle. Like AIC’s comeback album, it has to win people over to justify their continued existence. Time will tell whether this will be the case but my thinking with the son and mother speaking out as against is just that they handled it poorly.
They only had one song specifically made for Transformers, New Divide. They changed their sound for each album after Meteora so they didn’t have to be in a box.
I saw Linkin Park in concert on the tour for this album. Incubus and Mutemath opened. As for any bad albums from Linkin Park, One More Light is the worst and it sucks that it's the last one with Chester in the band.

Yeah it has had more backlash than when AIC did this.
RIP Chester
Yes

Yes that transformers comment was a joke, they did experiment with their sound I agree.
@@hectorThechilldudeonacouch I missed that as a joke. Lmao.

@@robertsparling917 yeah that episode would have been to easy, that is why we picked this one which had also mixed reviews.
I always thought this album was quite good, definitely preferred to A Thousand Suns which I think fans have overrated. It really isn't my cup of tea
@@kolderreviews I did not like a thousand suns at all maybe need to re listen now
Lucky. Don’t know Mutemath but Linkin Park and Incubus together must have been awesome.
