As a child, I was 13 or 14 and I took the bus alone to the big city. There was a music store where you could listen to the CDs. I didn't have the money to buy the CDs, but as a student I could take the bus for free drive. I went there a lot just to listen to Meteora, then one day I finally had enough money to finally buy the CD. Music shapes my mind to this day.
Fantastic Excellent Album! Meteora and Hybrid Theory will forever be my favourite albums of all time..Pure Golden Art from the most unique special best band ever of all time LINKIN PARK... R.I.P CHESTER ..LEGENDS LIVE FOREVER
I discovered them in 2006, I was 12 and a half.. Meteora was their most recent album: I remember downloading from Emule the Numb video with the bullied girl and it broke my heart with sadness, and then I remember my very first video watched here on youtube, it was the video of In the end.. And then I remember when Minutes to Midnight launched with What I've done, the video of it I saw on MTV.. That era in our life is no more, but with tears of nostalgia in my eyes I smile because it happened :)
I remember my mom went to KMart, and I went with her just so I could buy this album. I remember driving around blasting this with my mom in the truck and both headbanging. Good memories.
Excellent, man I can relate to so many of the lyrics. Just got discharged from Recovery Ways clinic and am getting ready to start my I.O.P. Much Luv Lincoln Park 🙏 RIP Chester... Thought about you on the inside of the clinic
Lying From You: 6:57 When I pretend everything is what I want it to be I look exactly like what you had always wanted to see When I pretend I can forget about the criminal I am Stealing second after second just 'cause I know I can But I can't pretend this is the way it'll stay I'm just (trying to bend the truth) I can't pretend I'm who you want me to be So I'm (lying my way from) You (no, no turning back now) I want to be pushed aside, so let me go (No, no turning back now) Let me take back my life, I'd rather be all alone (No turning back now) Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see (No, no turning back now) The very worst part of you is me I remember what they taught to me Remember condescending talk of who I ought to be Remember listening to all of that and this again So I pretended up a person who was fitting in And now you think this person really is me And I'm (trying to bend the truth) But the more I push, the more I'm pulling away 'Cause I'm (lying my way from) You (no, no turning back now) I want to be pushed aside, so let me go (No, no turning back now) Let me take back my life, I'd rather be all alone (No turning back now) Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see (No, no turning back now) The very worst part of you The very worst part of you is me This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought that what I said would have you running from me Like this This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought that what I said would have you running from me Like this This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought that what I said would have you running from me Like this This isn't what I wanted to be I never thought that what I said would have you running from me Like this You (no turning back now) I want to be pushed aside, so let me go (No, no turning back now) Let me take back my life, I'd rather be all alone (No turning back now) Anywhere on my own 'cause I can see (No, no turning back now) The very worst part of you The very worst part of you is me
Absolutely love that the album closes with Resolution, a song they didn't put Chester's vocals to. Really underlines his absence with this re-release 20 years on. Feels like a cathartic lament
Started listening to them a few years ago, because I was still listening to the favorites from back in the 70's - 90's. One of the songs that I listen to often that is not on this album is "One More Light". That song hits a chord deep inside my heart and soul. I have created a playlist with that song on it for the IW hikes I participate in. Mental health is important to all and more so to some. Never be afraid to speak up and talk to someone about what is bothering your mental health.
The Nu-metal era was full of iconic, unique, bands with sound you will never hear again. No song was similar, every vocalist with different voice, every musican creating different sound that other bands didn't have. Such music rich time.
IDGAFF WHAT ANYONE SAYS ABOUT “NuMetal” These guys with Chevelle, Korn, Soundgarden, Nirvana, man I could LITERALLY NAME at least 20 bands no questions asked try me if you think I’m full of shit lol!! Is why the 90’s were the LAST GREAT ERA!!!!😔So miss the early to mid 90’s…..The good ole days!!!!! If your a Grunge fk like myself and cherished Chester check out “Grey Daze” and their ORIGINALS tracks of “Wake me” & “No Sun today” albums!!! I mean Sean did a great job with the remasters on “Amends” & “The Phoenix” but NOWHERE NEAR that grungy ass dark feel of the ORIGINALS!! Honestly was a lil upset cause they went more “pop e” then “grungy”!! But beggars can’t be choosers!!!
Sobran las palabras..todavia no caigo q ya no este entre nosotros..pero el legado musical q Chester deja estara siempre presente!!R.I.P Chest..Love from Argentina to all fans friends and family of th band..
I was 9 when this album came out and little did I know how much of an impact LP would have in my taste in music 20+ years later. This and Hybrid Theory will always have a special place in my heart.
Is it unpopular opinion though? I though a lot of people love this album including me. And yes I love Hybrid theory and A thousand Suns as well but this is my favourite
I remember when this was brand new. One of the best albums of the early 00s. I also remember especially the era, was my second move back to Las Vegas, from Cali, i was in my mid 20s, life was crazy RIP C.B.
Yo no creía cuando escuchaba que una banda de música le cambiaba la vida a la gente. Hasta que un día como hoy LP me ha acompañado en todo el trayecto de mi vida y me pongo a pensar y ciertos momentos, experiencias, emociones y demás; y LP me ha ayudado en muchos aspecto, ya sea el sobrellevar partes duras de la vida con su música, hasta varias enseñanzas de lo que hablan sus letras. Te extrañamos Chester A los 6 y al resto de equipo de trabajo, enhorabuena son la caña y siempre dan energía con sus canciones. Joder, vamos a rockear!!
Man I would love for them to tour with this new material!! Its so soothing and therapeutic, the perfect solace to remember Chester by, and to watch his legacy to continue to unfold! What an amazing soul!❤
I remember the first time I saw the video numb, and Heard Chris Bennington voice hair stood from my neck! I told my girlfriend that guy is singing from his heart and soul. Pain too .this was I believe in 2000
He relates to us all who has dark thought s n mental health issues iv all ways had it my self i can say that just not out load u no just like others out there to respect Chester your sound sounds n music has all ways helped my depression still does now my friend,
My favorite band since it all started. The only actual concert I've ever been to, Linkin Park. You've helped me go on, and I thank you for everything you've done to keep me on track, and focus my attention on my children, and to continue living. Much love to you. -MadDawgMoody
*I wish all veteran of linkin parks here. because we lost so many in back then... i wish this anniversary package released on 10. year anniversary on 2013... because everyone there and here in 2013.*
Linkin Park is my favorite band from Mash Bujang. Until now, no one has imitated this music group throughout time. Now it's cooler and more energetic, the best of all groups 👍👍👍
I like this album, not only because of the music, but the nuance between the 1st track to 2nd track. It's a like a sound test. Left vs Right speaker / ear bud. That electric guitar... Always left side. Plenty of such nuances in the album.
