i never liked linkin park from the second they came out, i knew they were photocopied reprints of some longlost shit boyband that wanted to be all they could be.....
linkin park is in no way intelligent nor dance, nor even music to my ears for that matter. it's horrific , it rapes the very good sounds of musicians today, and i hate it. down with linkin park.
thats all i have to say. if i offend you, i apologize.

I like that new song, If I was 14 again would totally be into them. I think this is really the first time I ran into something where I dont like something cause I feel to old for it ... as dumb as that sounds.
Like that rap and roll stuff is something I really dont like and dont understand why its so popular. But what ever eh ?

sorry i did not mean to disobay you threadmaker. but i will diss linking park in every thread with their name in the title. i can't control it!
the music itself is not that bad. it would be tolerable without the vocals. but not really anything i would be intrested in.

I don't think linkin park even write their own music. Not sure. I know a lot of commercialized pop bands don't. The music may be good, but I just can't get past the singing to listen to it. It's like fingernails on a chalkboard to me.

I know linkin park were formed a year before they came out into the public eye... they were in a tiny corner of my bros Kerrang magazine. so they write they're own music.
two of them are also very good artists. Fucking good artists in fact.
The Dj bloke loves squarepusher and Aphex... it inspires him for tracks like session.
If some of you guys take the time out you might learn something, otherwise you're just reacting to them like pop fans react to our 'weird' IDM
Be more open minded. Hope this helps Junktion?

I'm with Chri5py - half of you IDM snobs are too far up your own ass to realise that "pop" music can actually be good music.
Acting this way fdoes not make you look smart it make you look like a closed minded 14 year old.

thanx Chri5py and od_step_cloak ...I was looking for some responses that were a little deeper than the usual, and you have my point of view exactly.
We shouldn't let our musical taste be based on pop and non-pop if there is inspiration hidden within.

I don't detest them. Most of their tracks just don't really do much for me. However Breaking the Habit is somewhat interesting (i.e. kind of different from what you would normally hear from a band like them) and on your recommendation I will check that track Session too.

I see some people nagging about how linkin park used the dali paintings for their video's. I.E. in a commercial way.
but most people don't know that dali made paintings for a living. he reproduced and reproduced he's paintings because it made money. he's art wasen't even sencere. and the linkin park music isn't sencere either. always tapping out of the teenangst barrel.

so let me get this straight, you liked them before they became commercially successful, but stopped afterwards? Pretty stupid imo... I like them... what do all these stupid terms "pre-packaged" etc mean? How do you know if they don't write their own songs if you don't even listen to it? It is really sickening here how people are towards pop music... they don't bother judging whether it's good or not, but just label it crap because it's popular... stupid!

well most popular music tends to be formulaic because the only reason it is released is money, producers invent a popular compositional formula and they replicate it. Simple economic values really. Yes there could be decent pop groups and there definetely are some... but anyway I wouldn't be able to appreciate them. Linkin Park are just boring, both the lyrics, vocals, riffs, rhythmologies, samples etc etc. Drunken Mastah wrote down the formula of their songwriting in a past thread. Maybe you should look for it.

mm no, people see it for what it is - the same few musical ideas repeated endlessly (which doesn't necessarily means something is bad), jazzed up with some electronic pottering around (quite unconvincingly, I might add), combined with such dire lyrics that might even make Trent Reznor laugh.
this combined with the slickness and absolute emptiness of their videos makes them incomparably shit.
this all has nothing to do with them being "pop".

No I wasn't saying that Linkin Park are doing it only for the money. But that wouldn't be a good thing since that would make them retards. Look don't feel bad about liking something about them. I would just advise you to look deeper and discover what that certain thing is. You also shouldn't project your personal tastes on other people. The enjoyment of music is based in a large part on past experiences of the individual. Maybe you like them because you have a certain connection to their songs that has nothing to do with pure musicology. You shouldn't presume that others should feel the same way and unless they do they are elitist fuckers. I hope that made sense.
