Game, Set, Match... now STFU
The band's follow-up to Meteora was produced by Rick Rubin. Fans have been saying on several message boards and blogs that he's changed their sound. Vocalist/multi-instrumentalist -- and co-producer -- Mike Shinoda dispels any notion that the change in Linkin Park's style was made by the famous producer.
"I don't agree with that. I go on the message board. You go ask anybody on the Linkin Park message boards, they know I'm on there and they know the band is watching. The band goes on occasionally we've always been very active with the fans and we stay that way. We know what people are saying out there, and I have to say: Number One - we call them the vocal minority. There are a smaller number of people who are very vocal, and then there's a lot of people who sit there and they do their own thing."

i wouldnt say they completely changed their identity and lost their fanbase, they just tried to expand by incorporating more traditional rock characteristics and unfortunately it dropped the quality of their songs...
if they did what they dis strictly to become more popular, that'd be selling out, but they did this cuz they felt they were outgrowing nu metal...
id say metallica doin wat they did in the 90's is a lil more closer to selling out that linkin park..

traditional rock? you call doing corny ass poppy electro/sythesiser music traditional rock? well them trying to "expand" their fan base just alienated a large portion of their original fans. pure and simple, if you dont agree with that then we are just gonna have to disagree because I am a part of their original fanbase and they lost me. I cant fuck with they new shit at all except for New Divide and that single they put out for the last album which was just ok, other than that I aint been able to fuck with them since Meteora.

Linkin Park have no loyalty to anyone at the end of the day. I enjoy the older Linkin Park instead of their new music. Actually I wasn't feeling their stuff since Minutes to Midnight. I mean some bands like to branch out and try new ideas whether their fans like it or not. They shouldn't have to do the same "Hybrid Theory" album if they're ready to move on. If I'm not mistaken when they were making Minutes to Midnight, Mike Shinoda said that it wasn't gong to be another Hybrid Theory III.
Just because Linkin Park want to make sounds that are totally different from what made them famous; I don't see how that make them sellouts? They can't please everyone and shouldn't have to keep making music that they aren't feeling anymore or have no desire to do.
