This album has remained the most successful one in the band's discography. By today, more than 10 million copies of this record have been sold.
In , Linkin Park toured the USA having many performances together with famous rappers, and also participated in Ozzfest. In addition, Linkin Park recorded Reanimation, a collection of remixes. Meteora, Linkin Park's second album, was produced in to lead the Billboard chart as the most distributed record. However, contrary to the praising feedbacks of the experts, this record did not achieve the debutante's fame.
This album followed the music style of its predecessor. Linkin Park created an awesome mixture of nu-metal, rap-rock together with touches of electronic and alternative music. Vocalist Chester masterfully utilized both extreme vocals, characteristic of many metal subgenres, and clean voice. Minutes to Midnight released by Linkin Park May 15, , became a step away from nu-metal closer to rock. The material contained much less rapping and many more melodic fragments. Critics compared such changes to the evolution of U2.
The band's fans were not unanimous concerning the new record and expressed various feelings, from sheer admiration to pure disappointment. Chester Bennington said in of the interviews that the band had been forced to follow the demands of its supporters and copied the Hybrid Theory sound, but the new style had come just to Linkin Park's satisfaction. The concert featured material from all five of the band's albums and highlighted a mix of new hits, including latest single Leave Out All The Rest and classic tracks such as Breaking The Habit and Crawling.
Linkin Park again ignore what other people say. Neither having returned to their roots, nor evolving the sound of their last record, have they chosen the third way. The latter option is especially true for bands that have a big, big chart hit on their hands but little critical respect or reputation as a hip band. Which brings us to Linkin Park's Reanimation, a generous track remix record of their debut Hybrid Theory that the band has vaguely alluded to as their art project.
That means the group has left the hamfisted alt-metal of their debut behind, turning this record over to rappers, remixers, DJs, and assorted producers to give it a darkly hip, electronic edge.
This may not be particularly pleasing to those who loved the angst-ridden rock theatrics of the debut, but it's a damn sight more interesting than that debut, helping Linkin Park distinguish themselves from the adolescently tortured rap-rock pack.
The paradox is, of course, that the band sounds more original when filtered through the likes of Kutmasta Kurt, Alchemist, Pharoahe Monch, Aceyalone, and Jonathan Davis, among others, but any change is welcome, really well, apart from the apparent decision to leave grammar and spelling behind; every song title is an "arty" interpretation of the original title -- "Paper Cut" is "Ppr:Kut," "Cure for the Itch" is "Kyur4 th Ich," etc.
Some of this works quite well, some of it is kind of juvenile really, does Motion Man need to repeat "Linkin Park -- remix" over and over again on his rap? But, compared to what they've done before, and compared to their peers, Reanimation is arty and a welcome step in the right direction. Download Reanimation by Linkin Park. Download Release.
