1. Rap/metal/rock band with an intriguing beat and dark lyrics.
2. A group known only for the lead singer, Chester Bennington, who pretty much makes Linkin Park what it is.
3. Regarding quality of music: To all their own. Yet the blatant messages of teenage angst don't always apply...even though most of their fanbase is stuck on the literal.
She can't hide no matter how much she tries,
Her secret disguised behind the lies.
And at night she cries away her pride,
With eyes shut tight staring at her inside.
All her friends know why she can't sleep at night.
All her family asking if she's alright.
All she wants to do is get rid of this hell.
But all she's gotta do is stop kidding herself.
"Carousel"
Damn, your music's so teenage angst it could rival Linkin Park's.
Call them what you will, Linkin Park is still nu metal garbage. Their lyrics are maudlin and cliche and reflexive only of stupid teenage emotion. (Apparently the singers are pissed about being ignored in high school. Give me a fucking break.)
The real kicker is that their fans think they are "hardcore" because they listen to this tripe.
Good god, do they actually have a period at the end of their name??? And people abide by this nonsense??!!
Linkin Park is a band consisting of 6 guys. The majority of their collection of songs is somewhat dark and grim. I think the genre is rap/metal is what I've heard.
Now, I've heard that most people don't like Linkin Park, but that's only because LP's style does not appeal to them. Well, to each his own, as I would say. If you don't like it, keep your mouth shut.
"Hey, did you hear "Breaking the Habit?"
"Yeah, isn't it that song about suicide?"
"Heck yeah, like it can't get any grimmer than that."
A band that redefines, and recreates something new, that people acually like and sounds good, instead of crap like Country-Rap. Will beat the snott out of you when compared to crap.
