#LinkinPark #Guitar #Metal
I still regret to not see Linkin Park live 😢😢, i wish i saw them live
Same here man and Pantera
Same man. I’m so sad I never got to see them
Same. I got to see a great Portuguese Linkin Park Tribute band and honestly it felt like I finally saw them.
They were so much better live! I’ve had the pleasure of seeing them 4 times. They were incredible each time.
@@ademkonjevic I agree with Pantera! I was just starting to listen to them when Dimebag was murdered. Never got the opportunity to see them with the original lineup. I have seen an amazing cover band called Trendkill about 6 or 7 times. They’re really good
I'll never forget the day Chester passed. My old band had a practice scheduled and we all showed up without really saying a word. We had never practiced it as a band but our guitarist started playing the intro to numb. Then our bassist joined in. Our drummer. Then my co vocalist and I performed the entire song by memory, and it to this day still feels special, Like there was a different energy in the room when it came over us. RiP Chester. You inspired millions
I remember to day/moment what I was doing and the months that followed me sadly. RIP Chester
I think that day hit a little different for everyone. Wrote out my longest poem in honor of Chester’s memory and I still tear up while reading it back. I’m glad you and your crew got to have that moment.
I was just doing random stuffs then the news hit, and I was frantically asked everyone I knew (loved LP) just to be like “No please let it not be real”, and I was in an emotionless state. We held a memorial day for Chester in a Hardrock Cafe.
About a month later or so I went to Australia, got ready to study my degree there and Numb played in Target. I was almost down on my knee crying, kept repeating “Rest Chester, it’s alright now”
@@gurglinghermits3043 Please share♥
I was working nights. My husband heard while I was sleeping and ended up waking me up a couple hours early so I'd have time to process it before work, and I really needed it. I don't know that I've cried so much in my life, before or since.
The "Chester falsetto vocals", the backwards sounding thing is actually Mike! And it's not actually backwards. They are messing with us so hard 😂
“It’s not actually backwards” yes it is?? You can hear it in the breaths
@@Rachel8260 It's actually not backward, because if you try ''re-reversing it'', it's still sounds backward lmfao, its just the way it was recorded and then the recording of the voice has been modulated that makes it feel reversed, cool stuff anyway
@@Rachel8260 you trying to suppose things that have actual answers from mike in a interview lol
@@Rachel8260 if it didn't - sound - backwards i wouldn't have said they are messing with us. Feel free to reverse it, it still sounds like gibberish and backwards. We'll get an answer on what they did out of Mike i hope
I can at least hear "no one's safe" in the intro, it's a cut up Audio, not a full sentence there, that's why it sounds like gibberish
You didn't ruin it Nik, it's kinda cool how you just improvise and it adds an extra layer.
Yea we didn’t come here to just hear the song lol. You click on content creator for their entertainment value.
Linkin Park
Metal or Not they are Goated. They’re Rock Metal in the heart! And idc what anyone says
They are probably the biggest gateway band
Only 2 more years until they're qualified for the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame. We're old.
They are metal
@@noboru5138it's like they are, but they don't try to be.
Something tells me you didn't get the point of this comment
This song has big “Faint” vibes! So refreshing to have that same feel and sound released now. RIP Chester ❤
The drums had the paper cut vibes until the end
The guitar part was actually a deep down version of Figure09 chorus.
personnally it reminds me of hit the floor
All of y'alls comparisons r cuz they're all in the same key C#.
Papercut
Faint
Hit the floor
From the inside
Crawling
All the same key. Yet kickass songs!
@@mg682 and figure.09 too.
@@mg682 perhaps I had perfect pitch breaking down sections after hearing this song.
Always love when modern musicians pay credence to these guys. They were my gateway to metal, and they'll always be my favorite band.
yup linkin park and cod zombies easter egg songs were my gateway to metal
@@twinkelz77 sameee
That smile as soon as you heard the rif 😂 Ultimate LP kids vibe.
The riff is so dang good and fat. The lyrics are so good.. I have had it on repeat a lot the last few days to make up for not having it the last 20 years
Not gonna lie but Linkin Park saved my life. They will always be one of my favourite metal band.
All the people that saved mine are gone now...Layne, Chester, Peep, Juice, Chris Cornell..
What do you mean "Not gonna lie, but" you don't have to be ashamed of it. Linkin Park helped a ton of people get through tough times. Stay strong.
Hope you’re doing well ❤
Wouldn't really consider them metal
@@ItsMeBarnaby literally nu-metal
Hey Nik, I just wanted to let you know that today a big rock radio station in my country (Austria) played your Rammstein song, "Nein!". I was hugely surprised and it really made my day. Keep doing what you're doing, it seems to be working ;)
Voll krass hab davon noch garnichts gehört!
Yo welcher Sender war das? :o
was echt? welcher Sender? voll geil haha
That's sick!
sag welcher sender
Bands have been trying to recreate this sound for 20 years, whether it's the guitar tone, Chester's vocals, the groove, the dynamics or the seamless Nu Metal blend. Turns out Linkin Park's cutting room floor has more bangers than most. Crazy how much they perfected this sound while basically being one of the first to do it.
What bands? Remove the sound engineer and LP sounds like trash......Facts
One of the reason I love Linkin Park and Rammstein (not really the same genre I know) is because of the simple yet incredibly tasty riffs in their songs. It just works.
I know it's so annoying when people shit on bands for simple guitar parts
just goes to show, you don't need complex parts. if you can provide the listener with catchy lyrics, and instrumentals. it has a much bigger impact and sticks with the listener. both bands are sick and do it very well.
@@_trashvis_ Yes totally agree, even "simple" riffs can still be very dope and beefy, if they are *hard, heavy, energetic and powerful* and catchy!
Deftones is also another great example of incredible riffs with simplicity. In fact, Deftones is one of LP's biggest influences when it comes to their guitar works. It's like you could hear some elements of Stephen Carpenter in Brad Delsons riffs, especially when it comes to their early nu metal sound.
Agreed. Rammstein always gets shit on for simple riffs, but don’t understand the musicianship to were they were able to continue to make/use simple riffs throughout their entire career and it’s so damn good. It also helps that Rammstein do easily the best concerts you can ever go to.
I have fallen in love with this song. Lost was good but this song is the perfect 2000s throwback, yet still feels new and exciting.
Meteora was the 1st album I bought and it changed my music taste forever. I didnt realize till recently how much LP led me to bands like ERRA and invent Animate today. Hearing more of this album 20 years later is mind blowing.
Erra is pretty good. I played in a band in high school with their drummer. Alex was a cool dude.
"cody thomssen" Same here, had I not discovered them and Evanescence I wouldn't be into Korn, Slipknot, SOAD which then led me to those bands.
right in the feels bro.
saw Linkin Park on the Meteora tour, they were needless to say excellent, wished I had seen them again but it wasn't to be
I regret not seeing them in the MTM tour. Chester really let his vocals soar during that era. The 2007 live version of Faint is mind blowing.
What a time to see them!
I wish I was even alive during that period of time 😅
Same brother, first time I saw them. That Meteora tour was stacked too, with P.O.D., Hoobastank and Story of the Year. Crazy setlist, I saw them twice in the later albums but nothing tops that tour in 03
This just kicks so much ass dude...I feel like a young,stupid 2000s ish teen again.
Chester,you will never be forgotten.
Much love from a random metalhead from Uzbekistan 🤘🏼🇺🇿🤘🏼
As a guitar player, I enjoy the guitar reactions. It’s like a reaction video and a tutorial in one. Rick Beato often plays along in his reactions so it’s nice to see you doing it too!
Giving some “Lying From You” vibes from Meteora, which is one of my favorite tracks to jam to - now I’ve gotta learn this one! LP is definitely a groove to play guitar with
That part where Chester goes major feels very much like the chorus in Easier to Run, too. I don't know if it was intentional on LP's part, but it helps solidify that signature early LP feel with callbacks like that. So good.
The verse and riff are reminiscent of Papercut and the chorus has all the power of Faint. This is the sound of Linkin Park we all fell in love with.
I feel like Linkin Park is still ahead of its time, from Hybrid Theory - Living Things, they all sounded unique and fresh, The Hunting Party is amazing for being heavy, while One More Light on the other hand its a Pop Album and not to discredit them, i think they can make Pop music work, its just Chester's vocals were to raw for some of the songs. Still every album they made still sounded different from each other and still sounds they were ahead of the curb, even One More Light the pop music made sounded so much better then what other pop artist have made.
That's what I love about Linkin Park. Every album is unique. Yesh Hybrid Theory and Meteora share a lot, but both albums have their distinctive sound.
If you add just one riff over the main riffs and make the guitars louder in any OML song, the entire album would still become a really Hard Rock/Heavy Metal album.
Had a lot of mixed emotions with this song. The fucking SECOND the guitar starts you're just smacked in the face with THAT sound. That Hybrid Theory/Meteora sound. Then the chorus kicks in and it's Chester just doing a vocal style he hadn't done really since Meteora. It made me so happy at first and then the chorus hit and I got so sad cause we'll never get this thing again. I hate that Chester is no longer with us. This was the band that got me into anything heavier then rap back in the day. It changed the path of my life in regards to music. It means SO much to me and I don't even think I realized it
They’re music in general was a head of its time.
3:50.
This
This is what music Is made for
This is why music is so beautiful
A band is special if it's able to make you just want to jam and create your own music
Linkin park is special.
Edit: it was nice seeing you be happy and hype over the music you listen to
Continue on with whatever you wanna do!
Am I the only person who heard hints of Hit the Floor in Mike's rap parts?
This has a slowed down Papercut vibe with the riff and Mikes flow in the verses. Still sick. Still love it. Will always love this band. Definitely a life changing band for most of us here
much love nik!!!! loving the new content!
That major key change towards the end was such a staple on Meteora. I immediately thought of Somewhere I Belong when that last chorus switched.
Mike is doing with this 20th anniversary edition the same as with the original album. They released Somewhere I Belong first, which was a more subtle approach to the sound they were known for with HT, but it was a bang too and could easily be compared to Lost. Then they released Faint, which, while it sounds even harder than Fighting Myself, it still hits harder than the former single. It's like Mike wants to repeat even the way they promoted the album.
By the way, that backing vocals of Chester singing "inside of me" in the last chorus reminds me of Hoobastank. They do that a lot as well and it's a band of which I like many songs
also it's a great marketing move, that cant be argued.
@@UltimateGamerCC yeah I'm not arguing, it's just something I noticed
Picked up Hybrid Theory in 5th grade when it first came out. It changed my life forever. They were my introduction into heavier rock/metal. I’ll always love them, these “new” songs are amazing to hear and just brings me back to simpler times.
Loving these new style of videos that go a bit more in depth it's acctualy really inspiring me to learn some more. I've been in this creative rut but idk seeing you work out the songs as you listen just makes me wanna do the same!
So glad I saw them in 2008 in OKC. Chester was sick and couldn’t sing well but on In the End the whole crowd sang all of his parts while Mike held the mic to the crowd and he was just blown away it was amazing. I’m pretty sure I sang every word the whole show lol.
Great reaction Nik! As a guitarist myself, I appreciate a musicians input too!
This is now one of my favorite songs! Thanks Nik for this reaction/jamming :) It's always nice to see you do that
Linkin Park is to my music tastes what The Office is my taste in TV shows. I can endlessly replay them both, and they never feel dated. With thay said, these new (old) songs are like when The Office Superfan extended episodes started coming out. It's all nostalgic, yet new at the same time.
These reactions-analysis are super cool, please, do more of them! Song is outstanding as expected :D
I actually really like how you've been improvising and trying to play along in these new reactions it's awesome I love it, and it's unique I don't see someone trying to learn it during their first listen often or probably ever come to think of it.
I definitely love this way of reacting, watching you play over and talk about different musical choices etc is great. Keep it up! :)
So happy I got to see them all original members
Linkin Park was my first concert in the 7the grade (I’m 34 years old now) and soooo beyond blessed to be blessed with Chester’s voice🙏🤘
same! i was 9 years old and I'm turning 30 this year. It was peak in their meteora album tour.
Linkin Park never fail to make me smile 😂
I completely love this new format. So much more interesting to see reactions happen in real time from your musician standpoint. Please keep doing it.
RIP Chester
This song is pretty much a trip down memory lane that is able to feel different. Makes me remember watching Meteora Live in Texas, over and over again with my older brother in a DVD and being amazed by the sheer stage presence of Chester and his energy.
Fond memories.
Keep mixing your reactions up like this, it's awesome seeing how your brain processes the music with a guitar in your hands
I've been listening to them since they came out, love them so much, they're my number 1 favorite band. Chester's singing is just so beautiful and haunting. I can't get enough of it, and LP has simple riffs that mange to punch through and be memorable, and their songs age like wine
I dig this style of video man keep em coming :)
it's sad that these songs went unreleased until now, but at the same time it's awesome, cause we get more LP and Chester to listen to. i've never been so conflicted in all my life!
Just went to LP tribute band last weekend and it made me realise that LP bridge parts of the songs are so high energy, at least Hybrid Theory and Meteora. And obviously Chester is one of a kind.
Linkin Park was my first contact with (real) music when dad brought home the Hybrid Theory CD over 20 years ago.. I was like 8 years old.
- Haven't stopped listening to the band ever since, and it's honestly the only band I NEVER get bored/tired of... Legit still enjoying it as much as 2 decades ago. Absolutely iconic, legendary, hall-of-fame type of band. Not just in the rock/metal/alternative scene, but just music in general.
I really enjoy this react format with you jamming along, it's fun ^-^
*breakdown senses tingling* 😂
It's impressive how you effortlessly just knew what to play!
I love this Linkin Park song and video. Really nostalgic. Almost comforting, their familiar sound.
So thankful I got to see them live, one of my favourite bands of all time!
I like playing along as you react. It's different and your perspective as a musician adds value to your reaction.
I was listening to hybrid theory just today on the way to work and it hit me just how amazing it is that such an influential album to this day and 20 yrs later, every song still holds up and I honestly believe always will. Unless something incredibly drastic changes in music haha.
Love how effortless you came to the song
Saw LP in Massachusetts in 2015 and it was an unbelievable show. They nailed every song and Chester's voice held up.
been with them since Hybrid Theory. every one of these new releases just makes me so damn happy. This one has been my favorite so far
Keep going with these type of reactions, I think they're sick. It adds something else to the video so keep it up!
There are two notes added to the chords. 3rd fret + 7 on the d string. 5th fret + 8 on the d string. It's the cherry on top. Love it❤
chester's screams heal my soul in a way i cant explain , they arent even my fav band or anything but they always heve been special , i regret not ever being able to see them live and its gonna hurt forever
Thank you Nick! This was absolutely genuine reaction! You playing guitar along the song. It felt so real! No, you were definitely not destroying song. I could feel your excitement! I hope there will be more occasions to see you geek out so much😍😊
These Coactions are the best. Keep it up Nic!
2:09 It's a simple riff but it's brilliant and a breath of air in these modern metal days, where everything has to be unnecessarily technical, just to impress other guitarists.
Chills man, chills
You are up there as one of the top “reaction” channels for me and it helps promote the music because every time you’re riffing over it (which is part of what I enjoy the most) I’m also thinking more and more, omfg I really just need to hear how it actually sounds now
I like the whole jam/reaction concept you got going on Nik.
I really like this new format man
Dig that, do it again! Guitars on reactions is always top tier!
An interesting about the intro I don't see anyone else talking about is the reversed intro has the exact same formula as Somewhere I Belong
The message is reversed, but the order of the words still are reversed as well, just like how they did the guitar intro. Reversed, the order is 4 - 3 - 2 - 1, they clipped the audio tracks to put them back in the order of 1 - 2 - 3 - 4.
The original message just reversed is "happen to this wanted never I." -> "I never wanted this to happen."
So cool!
I can listen to Hybrid Theory and Meteora start to finish without skipping. Anytime I hear early LP it is instant nostalgia from my teenage years.
I'm still listening to old albums Linkin Park
I swear, they never getting older, its just that good
I have been a big Linkin Park fan since the Meteora era, my family and I have been big fans. but I am not used to hearing other people speak positively of them... it is so nice to hear somebody else really enjoy their music ❤️
This was great! Keep doing em
This Song reflects exactly what I loved so much about Linkin Park back in the days and what they were missing past MtM. This is really really good Old Hybrid Theory/Meteora stuff
0:15 Linkin Park, Slipknot, and Breaking Benjamin mostly from what I've noticed, but sometimes Korn, Three Days Grace (w/ Adam), Deftones, and Otep are other late 90s-early 2000s alt-metal bands that influence later metal bands.
I love Linkin Park. One of the very few bands that had albums that I could listen to front to back, and they had 2 of them, Hybrid Theory and Meteora. They were my gateway into rock music at 10 years old when Hybrid Theory came out. I still listen to them more than 20 years later.
Really amazing content!
Background reversed vocals are actually Mike Shinoda's processed voice :D He said it in Howard Stern interview.
the bridge is the best part. Melody is so on point
I was waiting for your reaction, thanks man. That was fun
Love how the world always comes together with music. Rest in peace Chester,bringing people together even in passing.
Its been on repeat. I love the instrumental
Great videos Nik, never stop never stopping
Love the guitar addition you threw in
I'm super lucky and honored to have seen them at Pinkpop fest 2007, 2012, and Amsterdam in 2014.
Hearing Fighting Myself really brings me back to the early days when you used to saw Linkin Park on MTV.
Gosh.. i miss Chester
My first concert was back in 2003 i went to the Family Values Tour , this was when Hybrid theory was still their only album. Linkin Park, Stained, Static X, Deadsy, Powerman 5000, and Stone temple pilots
I love Staind and Static-X
This is the next level, learning the whole song while listening to it for the first time xD I forgot how fast you learn songs haha
I love your channel, Nik! YOU ROCK!
2005, linkin park and evanescence were the first 2 bands i heard in IT class in high school and they were the gateway into this world . this track brings back so many memories
This brings tears to my eyes 😢
The lyrics are so amazing
You do know it's actually a good thing if your audience is more of people who haven't subscribed, that means your videos are always reaching a larger audience
You're doing great man!!!
1000% dead on man. Glad you pointed out their influence on hard rock song writing in general. Their reach is vast.
honestly my new lp favourite song; listening to chester's voice again made me cry
イントロがえぐい
ミックスされたチェスターの声の質感ガチで好きすぎる
I feel like this song and lost were a great way of in a way showing the spectrum of meteora honestly. Lost was on the more emotional side ( like maybe numb breaking the habit )and fighting myself was in the more upbeat side (like faint or somewhere I belong ) at least in terms of sound . Get why they may have not made the cut originally but still could see where they fit in now .
this shit is on repeat here for almost 2 days now. SICK RIFF
this song is SUPER strong. Especially love it because its bsically lyiing from you. LOVE those 5ths
i like seeing nerdy nik with a guitar. always puts a smile on my face to see the man get excited about little things that not very many people notice and dive into them
I LOVE this song! If it had been on the original Meteora release, it would've been one of my favorite tracks. I love the chopped up Chester vocals in the beat so much 🤘
