At first, I thought Lost in the Echo would repeat this, and the song wouldn’t be taken anywhere interesting or more energetic. In my opinion, Burn It Down was a fairly average song the song never really went anywhere. Mike raps on the verse with aggression, reminiscent of A Place for my Head, and Chester’s clean vocals sweep the chorus in a very Minutes to Midnight-esque fashion. The band has managed to capture the raw energy from Hybrid Theory whilst adding in fresh high energy electronic elements. Lost in the Echo, the album opener is one of the strongest songs on the record. Tracks that stand out majorly for me are Lost in the Echo, Castle of Glass, Victimized and Until it Breaks. It contains features on at least one song that will appeal to a Linkin Park fan, old or new. If they hadn’t have released Hybrid Theory or A Thousand Suns, then there would be no Living Things. Living Things is a truly unique album, and somewhat of a summary of what Linkin Park is capable of. Living Things combines musical elements from all of the bands previous albums from the aggressive drop C guitars to the more recent electronic aspects of songs.

However don’t dismiss ‘Living Things’ as another disappointing release, because it isn’t. The short answer to that question is no, they haven’t gone back to their roots. After this somewhat risky release, followers of the band were left wondering if Linkin Park had changed their sound for good, or if they were to return to the gritty nu-metal sound which gave the band their place in the industry. Some fans were fond of the new sound however some, including me, were disappointed with the drastic change in direction for the band.
#DESCARGAR MP3 LINKIN PARK POWERLESS FULL#
On November 1, 2007, Linkin Park received MTV European Music Award as the best band in Munich, Germany.2010 saw the release of Linkin Park’s fourth full length studio album, the experimental, multi-concept album A Thousand Suns. Chester Bennington said in of the interviews that the band had been forced to follow the demands of its supporters and copied the Hybrid Theory sound, but the new style had come just to Linkin Park's satisfaction. The band's fans were not unanimous concerning the new record and expressed various feelings, from sheer admiration to pure disappointment. Critics compared such changes to the evolution of U2. The material contained much less rapping and many more melodic fragments. Minutes to Midnight released by Linkin Park May 15, 2007, became a step away from nu-metal closer to rock. Vocalist Chester masterfully utilized both extreme vocals, characteristic of many metal subgenres, and clean voice.

Linkin Park created an awesome mixture of nu-metal, rap-rock together with touches of electronic and alternative music. This album followed the music style of its predecessor. However, contrary to the praising feedbacks of the experts, this record did not achieve the debutante's fame. Involving rapper Jay-Z, Linkin Park produced acclaimed remixes for Numb, Faint, One Step Closer, and Lying from You. The album earned a number of rewards: MTV reward for the best video (Somewhere I Belong) and Radio Music Awards for the best song (Numb). The videos for Somewhere I Belong, Breaking the Habit, and Numb occupied MTV and top positions of the charts. Meteora, Linkin Park's second album, was produced in 2003 to lead the Billboard chart as the most distributed record. In addition, Linkin Park recorded Reanimation, a collection of remixes. Overall, they gave 320 concerts for that year and released DVD Frat Party at the Pankake Festival. In 2001, Linkin Park toured the USA having many performances together with famous rappers, and also participated in Ozzfest. By today, more than 10 million copies of this record have been sold. This album has remained the most successful one in the band's discography. The record included such chart-toppers as Crawling, One Step Closer, and In the End the video for the latter, broadcasted by MTV, was proclaimed the video of the year. This album was a good seller with 4 million and 800,000 copies sold for the first year and earned then Grammy as the best rock album of the year. In a year, they released their debut album Hybrid Theory, featuring the material accumulated for many years. In 1999, Linkin Park managed to get a contract with Warner Bros.
