I believe im open to all music and I can see a couple of OK things about LP (the occasional good pop-hook).
But my biggest gripe is just total unoriginality. All of these numetal bands seem to copy each other from the number of singers and their roles to the gear and guitars the members use. THEY ARE ALMOST ALWAYS THE SAME
-A singer who raps and one who sings
-Guitarists who used to use 7 string Ibanez guitars who now use PRS'
-Using Mesa Dual Rectifier amps
-Having a DJ with poor skills
-Singing about teen angst
How can I take the music seriously, and how can a fan be satisfied (well, beyond fleeting enjoyment) if its been done soooooooooooooooooooo many times, and their follow up album Meteora is almost exactly the same.
To me Linkin Park isnt a band, they are a buisness.
