Blah blah blah LP sucks, they're this they're that, honestly people should only have the right to hate on people who arent doing shit right. These guys must be doing SOMETHING fucking right, because they're more popular / successful then 90% of all other bands out there.... Everybody is gonna hate people who are winning. Dont hate the players, hate the game.

For me it's because they write music exploiting teenage angst. Either they need to take the large sums of money they've earned and get a good therapist or they need to quit setting bad high school poetry to music.

There are tons of bands who don't have huge crowds who are amazing. It's a shame to discount a lot of talent who haven't gotten places yet because they don't have big crowds.

Personally, I liked Linkin Park at one point, then I started getting into different music and as a whole I don't generally enjoy what's on the radio. 80's music and before that I can get into, and some of the indie music is pretty good stuff, but what's on the alternative stations make me want to claw my eyes out for the most part. I always felt that people who said stuff like what I just said were jackasses, but once you find music that's really impressive it's hard to go back to what's on the radio.

Their winning formula comes with the perk of being able to allow your creative energies to remain dormant as the exorbitant checks come in but I wonder how much money it takes to not only make the same album over and over again but to preform it live to crowds who throught the years remain the same exact age.

I could say so much more but instad I'll just pull a Chester:

Their winning formula comes with the perk............

I know i would have loved the shit out of linkin park up until i was about 19, 20. Then i got all angsted out. If the could just stop with the words, you know, if they were singing about something other than how nobody listens or how nobody understands them, like shopping for groceries. Fuck, i like the way they sound, it's just that the shit they sing about is so trite.

if people stopped listening to musicians that wrote about being depressed, nobody listening to them, nobody loving them, etc., then people would stop buying records by Springsteen, Dylan, Taylor, shit just about everyone who ever wrote a song

I hate them because they're the favorite band of every person out there with wholly unoriginal tastes in music.

I liked their mp3.com stuff, then I liked their first album, but as a band I don't think they have grown beyond the same material they used to play. I imagine people don't like LP so much anymore for the same reason their remix album failed; their new music is just a rehash of the old so there is nothing new to hear. With that said, I still have some of their songs on rotation in my regular playlist. My favorite is still one of their pre-fame songs: My December.

Errr... I love people who are winning, or I hate people who are winning, but it's because of the people, not the winning or losing... *boggle* Also note that William Hung cut an album. There are hundreds of local bands that are better and have never done so. Don't hate the logic...

Never did like them, and I never will. That genre of music isn't my thing, I'm a hip hop/reggae/hendrix fan.

At this point, the band has put out like 24 original songs in 5+ years. Maybe people would be less critical if they didn't put out a CD and then release every song as a single so as to not have to write new music

*Bear in mind, this is just my opinion, don't take it as an attack on anyone's taste in music*

I openly hold scorn for bands like Linkin Park. I feel that they feast on the wallets of dispariaged teenagers with cliche, repetitive wailing about how hard life is because some girl broke up with them, or any number of other juvenile contrivances. Linkin Park cannot turn pain into art. I don't see any pro-active elements to these guy's lyrics or music, just endless screams about how life is all ultimate suffering about nothing.

Furthermore, popularity has nothing to do with how talented or brilliant a band is. Modern pop music is pop music because it is simple, appeals to the vague similarities in large groups of people and doesn't attempt to be artistic. Music is supposed to be an art, not a business. Are you upset? Depressed? Listen to Bob Dylan's Blood on the Tracks.
