[Cutler 26 INT's LOL!]

I liked Hybird Theory.

 

[Koko888]

Papercut, Runaway, In the End, Forgotten, Cure for the Itch....I listen to this when I'm in a foul mood, by the end I'm usually good to go.

I remember when I first bought the CD and the opening notes to Papercut started playing. My mind was blown for the next 45 minutes straight. That shit was fucking classic.

To this day, I can't say I've ever heard an opening track make such an epic statement on a debut album. That shit is still dope 10 years later like Jagged Little Pill and Sublime (the album) was.

Wait how the hell did Shinoda sell-out? SMH
Also why hasn't this been done before? Classic effin album. I'm mad Rick Rubin said they should focus more on instrumentals instead of rapping and they took his advice

if you dont know shit about it then google the shit. all Im gonna say is there is a reason their music doesnt even sound like its by the same people. Shinoda said some shit like he doesnt care what the "vocal minority" thinks (people that want the old sound back) and that they will continue to do whatever they want. if that aint sellin out then I dont know what is.

I don't know about all of that, but I definitely do remember something about Rick Rubin telling them to focus more on the instrumentals and that's why their stuff sounds different because they've gone away from that Limp Bizkit type style they used to have

yeah thats true. fans thought Rick Rubin was the cause for the change in sound but Mike Shinoda did an interview and said that it wasnt Rick Rubin that made them change, they did it themselves and goes on to make that vocal minorty bullshit comment.

 

[ShencotheMC]

yeah thats true. fans thought Rick Rubin was the cause for the change in sound but Mike Shinoda did an interview and thats when he made that vocal minorty bullshit comment.

It was probably both then.

 

[smokelahoma]

It was probably both then.

no he said that they changed their sound because they wanted to not because of Rubin.

 

[smokelahoma]

either way, they still sold out and turned they back on what made them famous.

 

[ShencotheMC]

Doubt it but whatever you say dude. That's a big influence cuz
