Linkin Park - A Thousand Suns (Your opinions)

[dR3]

I liked a few of the songs, but I must say, this was disappointing. They just don't sound like the real LP anymore, it's like they are some other band.


Download it from here if you haven't already

Oh dear lord, this is worse than I expected. After listening to the entire album...

Like, words cannot fully explain how destroyed I am. I feel like stabbing someone, ripping someones eyeballs out, throwing a baby out a window. That was horrid in every way possible. I can't believe how it's possible for such a good band to make such a bad CD, seriously. Burning In The Skies and The Catalyst are literally the ONLY songs I think are decent. Half of the CD was pointless skits/interludes, a complete waste of time. Maybe I'll have a different opinion later, which I doubt, but is possible.

Glad I didn't listen to it.

Glad I didn't listen to it.

So it resembles Meteora in no way shape or form?

Damn it.

Yeah I agree with you , when i peeped that first time i was like , the fuck is this really ? doesnt sound like that avant-garde band i used to be into ,really disoppointed me.

[BaZZ]

I really liked it. Its not like any of their previous shit, but I really enjoyed it. I felt its like a mash of many genres, instead of just merging rap and rock like they did previously, which I surprisingly really liked.

But then again I enjoy music by The Postal Service so I guess am on a different level taste-wise than most of you here on an Eminem forum.

WHAT A DEPRESSING ALBUM!

WHAT A DEPRESSING ALBUM!

really i dont wanna listen

I like The Catalyst. Might even make me check out the album. I'm not usually into their stuff, though, so that sound might not work for their long-time fans.

Check Meteora if you're not well in touch with their previous work. It's like their TES, imo.

[Robbie G]

I guess I won't be checking it out then.

@ Solace imo Hybrid Theory > Meteora

[Solace]

Okay, it's been a while since its release and I've been able to make a fully informed decision. I still dislike the album. Only 4 listenable tracks for me -

3. Burning In The Skies
8. Waiting For The End
9. Blackout
14. The Catalyst

I really disliked the style used on this album, and I was hoping for something extremely great. I was let down but boo woo oh well. I'll just keep bumping their older music.

And @ Robbie, Hybrid is their MMLP for me. So still pretty in high regards, and almost as good as Meteora.

i wanted to love it cuz i really liked the catalyst, but listening through the album, i didn't. i guess i'll let them tracks sink in and grow on me...
