I went out and bought the Hybird Theory, and I ...  Read the complete review

Has anyone here heard of a band called Hybrid Theory? Well maybe some of you, but the once excellent band called Hybrid Theory are now the excellent band called Linkin Park. I?m not sure where they got their name from (maybe someone can help me out) but I do know why this is their name, they decided that if they could fire themselves ...  Read the complete review

Well, okay, that statement’s a bit inflammatory coming from someone who took 20 years to get from Bucks Fizz to Bob Dylan! I freely admit that there are dozens of artists whose debut albums with which I am not familiar, so it’s a silly statement. But it’s a good title and it is a brilliant album, so, I’m sorry, ...  Read the complete review

i first got into this band way before anyone had heard of them, and kept enthusing how talented they were.coming from a mixed background of metal, punk and hard house people were sceptical about my views.i was mocked by my friends who deemed the album too light.however,when you listen to it you realize how much power is contained in the ...  Read the complete review

It seems that whenever good music such as this becomes popular with the general rap-loving public, all metal fans begin to diss it. "Linkin Park" have not sold out the rock genre with their album, they have just made the genre more widely known. By mixing rap with heavy guitar riffs, "Linkin Park" have been ...  Read the complete review

Whether I'm just heading in a new direction in the music I listen to, or these days of constant student drinking are affecting by mushy brain,- whatever it is, I seem to really like Linkin Park's album Hybrid Theory. For the benefit of those who haven't even heard of them, I'll explain. From what I can ...  Read the complete review

I bought this album on true faith that i knew what i was doing, and Boy i wasn't wrong. I know recently they have hit the charts big style with the track 'Crawlin', a truley superb piece of work. I originally heard the track 'One step closer' on MTV's M2 channel and fell in love with the sound and aggresion of ...  Read the complete review

Linkin park have been geting alot of stick recently, from hardcore metal fans, saying they are a boy band. This is mainly due to there preformence of crawling on top of the pops, and the fact they don't scream and swear all the time. Hybird theory is there debut alblum, and even the most violent maralin manson fan must agree ...  Read the complete review

linkin park is another sort of punk rock bands and plays the same sort of tunes as other punk bands but each band does have its own style. Like in linkin park they use dj effects and go for the more slightly challenging guitar riffs instead of papa roachs 3 chord songs that after a while do get a bit boring as it just goes over and over. ...  Read the complete review

Love 'em or hate 'em, Linkin Park have gone from zeroes to heroes in a radically short space of time. Whilst superficially a Bizkit-lite collection of nu-metal (a term Americans apparently hate - join the club!) wizardry, 'the Park' hide a couple of surprises for the more discerning listener. First up, and ...  Read the complete review

Linkin Park do not make the type of music that your grandma likes. And even amongst us 'young ones' they get a lot of slating. Some say they do nothing but shout and scream while others complain they rip off bands like Limp Bizkit. I always find it hard to classify music in to one genre and Linkin Park are no different. ...  Read the complete review

Ok hear we go a bit of a slating coming hear sorry like. Linkin Park why did they call themselves that you may ask well let me tell you. They called themselves Linkin Park so that when you go to buy the equally bad Limp Bizkit what should you see but Linkin Park just next to it. Now onto their music. They are ...  Read the complete review

The last decade has seen a wide range of musical genres descend onto the UK charts, larger than perhaps any other period in time. Whether it be Pop, Rock, Dance or even Jungle, you can be assured that the genre in question has had at least one defining song which experienced some form of success in the mainstream commercial market. But ...  Read the complete review

You insert the CD into your hi-fi, you press play. Suddenly the music starts. THUMP. The one who was listening is now unconscious on the floor, thrown to the ground by surprise – never in his dreams expecting to hear such incredible music. The fact is Linkin Park are new, different, exciting and growing in popularity. Their ...  Read the complete review

Recently, the British charts have been overwhelmed by the return of Rock music, re-emerged as "nu-metal". The revolution has been headed by bands such as Papa Roach, Crazy Town and most famously, Limp Bizkit. Although not entering the charts as much as the previous trio, numerous other bands, whilst they have been around for a ...  Read the complete review

new metal is all the range , and it is because of these guys!!!!!!!!!!!!!! This album is simply superb . There is no other way to describe it , linp bizkit , papa roach and the others are nothing on these guys . Don't get me wrong I enjoy listening to papa roaches last resort and fred Durst Rolling , but songs like a place for my ...  Read the complete review

Linkin Park are a breath of fresh air in the fast stagnating rock scene. They have a mix of heavy guitars, sort rhythms, melodic vocals and rap lyrics. Their sound isn't the totally new being quite simalar to deftones, but there is a rap twist in many tracks that makes them different. On to the album itself. The albums kicks off ...  Read the complete review

But can they keep it up??, I hope so, they are very good I heard "one step closer" on MTV2 quite a while ago and I really liked it, I must admit like anything good they have overplayed it somewhat!! but don't let that put you off! The album is really good, at the moment I can't stop listening to it, my ...  Read the complete review

As soon as i hard one step closer i was amazed then i saw the video and almost mugged someone so i could get the cash to buy the album as soon as possible. They are an excellant upcoming band and have brillaint tracks on their album such as 'in the end' and 'one step closer'. 'Crawling' is also a superb track and ...  Read the complete review

This cd is good. Maybe you didn't understand me. This cd is good. I've had enough of the usual pap we see on the charts or contstant thumping of club music which predominates radio stations, you can't imagine the relief I felt when I heard this band. Linkin Park are a crossover band with plenty of anger. ...  Read the complete review
