Linkin Park's song form their newest album "numb"

I like it a lot, and I'm hardly a fan of linkin park because they're so typical and all that great stuff. But the lyrics to this song speek to me. Anyone else hear it and agree that these lyrics are some of the best linkin park has attempted to write? :D :confused:

The correct title is "Numb"

And you're just asking to get bashed, seeing as a LOT of people here think Linkin Park stink. Personally, they're one of my favorite bands.

Yea, the lyrics are good, but if you check, the basic concept of the song has been done before

Personally I think "numb" is close enough.

Personally I also think that "getting bashed" on a chat board is retarded, and one wouldn't need to start an entire thread for it. You could really do that by posting on any of these boards, because some of the kiddies here take everything WAY to seriously.

Sadly I meant this IN seriousness, and instead got "bashed" in an "anti bashing" kind of way. It's so sad that people take a band so seriously. I said it was a good song, that's hardly BASHING material. Than you turn around and say "THE BASIC CONCEPT HAS BEEN DONE BEFORE" now who's bashing? Indeed.

Anyone else for some wholesome input on something as simple as "Is this good or what?"

Mellow out a little...from what I can see, Dude was just commenting that there's a lack of love for Linkin Park on the boards. Nothing against your post, or the song. ^_^

As far as saying that the basic concept has been done before, this is true. However, it's true for most songs. Songwriters and singers take cues from many of their own favorite songs, from poems, and from literature. If this inspires them to write something similar because they like it, then so be it. The point of writing a song is to touch somebody, somewhere. I'm sure the guys in LP would be happy to see that they succeeded in that.

Personally, it isn't my favorite LP song, that distinction would probably go to Points of Authority or the remix of Forgotten. Keep in mind that everybody's had different life experiences...stuff seeps into everybody's head differently. ;)

Being the stiffest audiophile I can be, I'll say this: It's the best Linkin Park song to date. I'll leave that phrase up to your interpretations and critique.

Numb is a great song IMO. And its definetly 2nd best off of Meteora (number 1 being Faint). The lyrics are great. Although I think My December is better.

Not my favorite band in the world, but I actually do like a lot of their stuff. They just get a lot of negativity from people because they are "what's hot" nowadays. The same thing happens to Britney Spears, Good Charlotte, 50 Cent, etc. Basically, the more popular you are, the more enemies you'll make.

Dude
01-28-2004, 12:06 PM
Yes, it is one of the better songs on Meteora, Faint being the first, Numb being second. If you read the little book let thingy in the "speshul" CD, it says Numb was focused on it's intro hook. They did a pretty good job on it.

Hybrid Theory will be the best album LP EVER releases. Just my opinion, it has some amazing songs (to me any way), but my favorite song is the Reanimation version of "My December" that song 0wnz all

Linkin Park songs are just a mass exploitation of over-dramatic loser teens everywhere.

01-28-2004, 02:18 PM
Bleh, not a fan of this song as it just says the same basicly thing The Floyd said in the song "Comfortbly Numb" just it says it in a cheap whiny teenager way.

I'm not really impressed at all by it i'll just chalk it up as another lackluster Linkin Park attempt, the really funny thing is this song was tabbed in a recent issue of guitar world, i litterally leanred the entire song in less than 5 minutes.

I suppose to each his own though, you like it fine then, but i'm repsonding to the question in the topic, not anyone in the topic ^-^

Yes Numb was off Meteora, who said it was an album?

And Linkin Park does not "suck" as you put it (to whoever said this, npt talking to Pichu). It is just your opinion, and to you, it may be true, and to others it may not. So unless you can prove that Linkin Park "sucks" they don't.

Numb was good, though my personal favorites off Meteora were Session and Somewhere I Belong (severly overplayed as it may be). Instrumental music is more my thing... the Japanese flute loop in Nobody's Listening was particularly nice, for instance.

There's no need to bash Linkin Park. Because we already know so many people dislike them- I'm one of those people- you don't need to overblow such a bad thing.

Wanna know something? I used to like Linkin Park. I think quite a few people here did, until they decided to go further with their music. I do own Hybrid Theory, Reanimation and even Meteora. I listened to the albums alot, they really geared me up to contemplate suicide. :rolleyes:

I don't reccommend Linkin Park to anyone who wants to listen to them- especially if you're new to pop/rock (yes, it is rock- that doesn't exactly always mean it's good.)music and you're becoming an adolescent.

Skip a few obstacles and go straight to Tool, instead. ;)

and that you cannot be criticized for liking something that is utterly mass-produced, pre-packaged FALSE crap.

And so liking this is wrong? I like Linkin Park, they are good to listen to in certain occasions, but not all the time. I'm not saying they are a great band...but just because they are mass-produced, pre-packaged FALSE crap. doesn't mean can't like them. Music is music.

I'm not much of an avid listener of LP. For some reason, most of their chorus parts are really appealing to my ear. One of the only bands I know of that do that.
I'm more of a fan of Points Of Authority. I felt Numb was a bit too slow and not as electrifying as POA

No one said you can't listen to them. Just know that you're buying in to everything you got from bands like N*Sync and BSB. It's formulated music.

Exactly, I mean, I listen to all sorts of stuff. Everything from Ice Cube/DMX/Method Man on to Linkin Park moving on through to Kottonmouth Kings/Insane Clown Posse/Twiztid and then stuff like Led Zeppelin/Limp Bizkit/Korn/Slipknot

As you can see I have a semi-vast kind of taste in music. Music is just music. Whether a band is more talented then others is not the issue, the issue of listening to music is how the band makes you feel. The lyrics and the music are supposd to do something, make you feel something, and whatever touches a person in that way, then good for that person.

Aminals
01-31-2004, 09:57 AM
Alright. That's fine and dandy. But what I'm saying is that Linkin Park and its producers are creating music for the sake of selling it to people like you. If you're cool with that, that's fine, but personally, I'd feel like a tool if I listened to music like that.

Plus, I'm just not a big fan of simplistic music that any random Joe can play. But again, if you're satasfied with it, gravy.

01-31-2004, 10:07 AM
Well, in response to that, I never spent a single dime on LP. And besides...Its not like I'm in love with the band. Just defending those that do and saying its okay to listen to whatever they like to listen to.

Heres the link bout it on ANN. http://www.animenewsnetwork.com/article.php?id=4989

As I remember on the old EzBoard there was a thread discussing bout the relationship between Linkin Park and anime. People were starting to wonder if LP liked anime cus of the Gundam models in the music video of "Somewhere I Belong" and how its strange that there happens to be anime fans who are also fans of LP. Well by the looks of it LP is definitely fans of anime.

I saw the preview of the music video in a commericial earlier this morning. From what little I saw it looks pretty interesting. Looks like pop-culture is going to be more exposed to anime which I don't know if I should consider a good thing or bad thing. I ocassionally see a Tokyopop commericial on MTV and MTV2. The song is pretty good too btw. Anyways what is your opinion bout this guys? A lil side note. If you have nothing good to say or just want to flame/bash Linkin Park don't bother posting. Neither I nor anyone else feels like reading the flames.

The band that sang in the music video "Viewtiful World" at the end of Viewtiful Joe kinda reminds me of Linkin' Park.

CALL MY NAME! WIN THIS GAME! SAVE THE WORLD! SAVE THIS LIFE! COME ON!

Can anyone give me the lyrics to that song?

Anyways, i'm a fan of Linkin Park as well. I like how they're rock and pop and don't cuss. I'm glad they're good examples of anime fans.

Betelgeux
05-22-2004, 11:40 PM
I'm not a big fan of Linkin Park, but I like some of their songs. I thought Meteora was better than Hybrid Theory, anyway.

Anime would definitely do some good for pop culture... but all that unnecessary exposure and publicity could destroy its image (literally and non-literally).

In any case, this looks to be interesting.

I have the video on my computer. It's awesome. I was happy because it is my favorite song on the album, and it has an anime video for it. I think its really cool. More of a traditional anime feel to it.

Firefly33
05-23-2004, 07:33 AM
I just saw that video last night. It was funny because I was watching with a group of my friends and I had just mentioned something about anime before the video came on. I saw it and I said something like, "Well, this isn't anime influenced at all," sarcastically of course. Not like the Japanese writing wasn't clue enough. ^^ I didn't pay very close attention to the video, but it was pretty cool from what I could see. It kinda reminded me of a few of the shorts in Animatrix.

I still haven't seen it, but the clips i saw off a commercial defiately makes me want to see it. I love Linkin Park and the song.

P.S. Another clue to LP liking anime is the mechs they had on the remix album (can't remember the name).

P.P.S. Mercury Koopa, I love the avatar and the pic in your sig.

The music video for "Breaking the Habit" premiered today. I saw the second half of the Making of it on MTV2. I'm pretty sure they'll show it again sometime today. Anyways on with my opinion bout the video. I thought it was great and pretty sweet. The animation is just like Kid's Story off of the Animatrix, which I don't mind much. Overall I loved the music video. Also seeing as how its now released I really wonder how this will effect Western Pop-Culture seeing as how Linkin Park is so damn well known. Whats your thoughts on the music video and the effects it could have on pop-culture?

Here are the lyrics thanks to azlyrics.com

"Breaking The Habit"

Memories consume
Like opening the wound
I'm picking me apart again
You all assume
I'm safe here in my room
Unless I try to start again

[Bridge:]
I don't want to be the one
The battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I know it's not alright
So I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

Clutching my cure
I tightly lock the door
I try to catch my breath again
I hurt much more
Than anytime before
I had no options left again

[Bridge:]
I dont want to be the one
Who battles always choose
'Cause inside I realize
That I'm the one confused

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
I don't know why I instigate
And say what I don't mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
Tonight

[Bridge:]
I'll paint it on the walls
'Cause I'm the one at fault
I'll never fight again
And this is how it ends

[Chorus:]
I don't know what's worth fighting for
Or why I have to scream
But now I have some clarity
to show you what I mean
I don't know how I got this way
I'll never be alright
So, I'm breaking the habit
I'm breaking the habit
I’m breaking the habit
Tonight

As most here, I started listening in the early hybrid theory days. (Pre-crawling video)
Then the worst thing possible happened. They got sucked in by the TRL crowd. I tried to not pay attention to that. Then they released Reanimation/Reanimator/The Rap album... and I suddenly started to develop a stomach virus that made me nauseous whenever that album was played. Kinda wierd.

Then Meteora was released...for the 1st few months I ignored it.
But slowly through radio and other friends I heard a little of it.
To my surprise it didn't sound ghetto or very TRL-ish.
Time has passed, and I caught their recent making the video for Breaking the Habit.
They seem to be working away from the pop-ish ways...prepackaged or not.
I won't go out and spend money on their next effort right away, but I may purchase it eventually if they keep evolving the right way.

The correct title is "Numb"

And you're just asking to get bashed, seeing as a LOT of people here think Linkin Park stink. Personally, they're one of my favorite bands.

Yea, the lyrics are good, but if you check, the basic concept of the song has been done before

I agree alot of their songs sound alot like that.

The Catalyst

I MIGHT like LP...


if they learned to play more than five-six chords on their guitars.


Seriously, all the songs are far too repetitive. There is a fine line between having a unique sound and sounding the same over and over... and LP is on the wrong side of that line. AFI almost suffered a similar fate with their "Black Sails in the Sunset" album, but fortunately "Sing the Sorrow" changed that.

Not to mention the lyrics. Can they get any more generic? That's the thing about LP... you can delude yourself that there is some real meaning behind the songs... but the reality is that they are little more than randomly generated angry words. Korn still suffers from this... the only meaningful song I've heard from them is "Y'all Want a Single," and it's not too deep of a meaning, as you can imagine. From what I've noticed, LP is essentially pop music with a rap-style in vocals and some electric guitars. Yep, that's about it. Listen to one LP song, and you aren't missing much by skipping the rest.

Unfortunately, the quality of the music really doesn't matter. Sales do. Without a couple of bands that are actually good, Rock would be completely dead. As things stand, it's only a matter of time. And I'm speaking as a fan of rock music. When money becomes the primary motivation, it is rock music no more.

This said, it should be mentioned that I do own Hybrid Theory and Meteora... but I regret purchasing the latter. With HT, I had hoped that the faults were because the band was new, and still testing the waters. Alas, Meteora proved me wrong. They only have a slight amount of talent in songwriting, and less than that in playing their instruments. I think this is evident from whoever mentioned that their live concerts are terrible. I have one word: Computers. That's how it's done nowadays: you don't even need to know how to play an instrument, as you can produce it entirely off a computer. At least Techno music doesn't fake the fact they use computers, and uses that to create something that actually sounds good.

I'd conclude with something along the lines of "long live rock," but frankly, it won't live for much longer, and bands like LP aren't helping.

SnapeIsHot
06-18-2004, 08:09 PM
I agree with the fact that a lot of their music sounds the same but I love them all the same. In fact, I just redecorated my livejournal with a background that says "The Very Worst Part Of Me." I love the song "Lying From You." It's a great song. I could listen to it forever. I also really like one of their earlier ones, "In the End." That song fits my voice so perfectly it's unreal. I love Linkin Park.

Yeah I saw the Video with the people putting up the Devil Horns (Or w/e you call them) While Jay-Z was Rapping, it was hilarious.

But Anywho, maybe it's me. I just don't like Rock with Rap, It sounds.....awkward and diffrent. Anybody agree?

Well, it has some keyboard parts, which IMO are really cool. I dunno, this is the first time that I have heard this and it really was refreshing. I like how people can put a spin on other people's music, and not eff it up entirely.

btw, it's Linkin not Likin. LOL.

After doing a quick forum search and coming back with no results, I s'pose it's safe to post this.

Linkin Park's new album, titles "Minutes to Midnight", is slated for release on May 15 of this year.

I don't know about you guys, but I personally am very excited. It's been four long and musically almost painful years without some new stuff (that doesn't involve Jay-Z) from them, and I've been watching the LP blogs looking for info for the past couple of years.

The first new single "What I've done hits radio stations across the country today :-D. I've listened to it on YouTube, and while it's definitely Linkin Park, it sounds a little different. The band members say it's more "raw", but I'm not entirely sure on what that means. Any insight?

Also, if you have heard the single, post what you think.

Their new single is hella tight. I have it on my ringtone

Anyways, it seems they changed their musical taste. They no longer keep the Raw grunge edge you'd hear on One Step Closer or Faint. I think they're taking more of a Soul/Hip Hop approach

Will it do good? I hope so

I'm a tad disappointed. The many songs they made that are supposed to go into M2M, is left behind. Has anyone heard of the song "No Holding Back"? That was a contender for a Track slot but it's ditched for slower blues/tunes. It'll prolly be on LPU 7.0

Anyways, there are 2 Hidden Tracks in M2M. One of them I believe is Screaming At Space, which isn't as stellar as I've hoped it to be

Record sales prove nothing. You don't know who's buying that CD. It may be some punk wannabe, or some sort of poser. Sales don't prove whether or not the band is good. It just proves how many people like them and how popular they are. I like a few non-popular bands, but I can assure you that they have ten times the talent of Linkin Park. You can't just say that because an album sells a lot, means it's a talented band.

Well, since this thread was made in 04, Meteora has been out a lonnnnng time. Anyway, I've been fans of LP since 4th grade (I'm now a freshmen). They arent my favorite band, but I like them a lot. Hybrid Theory is their best album IMO, but I hate Crawling. I also hate Breaking the Habit, everyone loves that song, I just dont like it much.

I'd say my favorite song by them is either Forgotten or Place For My Head.

I hope their new album doesnt suck. They may "conform to the norm" like Metallica did.... I heard LP's new song and honestly, it doesnt sit with me very well...

This is why I hate Illegal downloading. It's not a new Linkin Park song, it's an old Grey Daze song that someone re-named. All of thoes tracks that sound grunge-y/southern/blues-y/arena rockish are all just renamed Grey Daze tracks. Which is, for you people that don't know, Chester's old band before Linkin Park.

Sales don't prove whether or not the band is good. It just proves how many people like them and how popular they are.

...What? Out of any statement you've tried to make this is by far the most uneducated. You're trying to argue that because they are successful, have fans, and have sold millions of records they must be a bad bad.

They had a sold out tour in Japan.


I like a few non-popular bands, but I can assure you that they have ten times the talent of Linkin Park. You can't just say that because an album sells a lot, means it's a talented band.

This just tops it off, and makes anything you've tried to argue invalid. You're playing the Underground > Mainstream rock card, a biased against mainstream rock groups just because they manage to break out into the music industry. Linkin Park invented something new and interesting, and something very worthwhile. If you don't like them, why bother to post here when you know comments like these wouldn't settle over well. This is why music threads shouldn't be alloud, someone always comes in and tries to start problems.

I'm afraid they'll do the same thing that MCR did with their new album (I love MCR, love the Black Parade, but I think Three Cheers is better, because it sounds more like them).
Eh, change can be good or bad, but it’s all opinionated. System of a Down, for example. Their new albums were very different from the older ones, and some people didn’t like it while other did (personally I loved them). And personally, I liked The Black Parade better than Three Cheers For Sweet Revenge, but that was great too. I don’t know what to expect from Linkin Park’s new album, but as I stated before, I like the “What I’ve Done” song. It sounds to be the nice melodic song they always put out on one of their albums.

Well, it's not my fault that your little rap sensation sucks. I know I can't rap Papercut and I don't want to, I don't know who would. Point being, I think his rapping is amateur, and he doesn't need to start having a rap festival during a thoughtful, deep, rock song, and Chester is stupid to have allowed that two-bit rapper into their little band. Shinoda obviously can't make it as a rapper due to his upsetting supposeively "hit single" "Where'd You Go". The song has a good message that I totally agree with but it's disgraceful to perform it with such awful rapping. And since he can't make it as a actual rapper, he clings to Linkin Park like some sort of safeguard. If he wants to rap, he should take some tips from Ludacris, B.I.G (who's dead but he could study his records), Lil' Wayne, etc., rappers that actually have something to talk about (an awful childhood like Lil' Wayne or exposed to violence like B.I.G.). If you think Papercut is hardcore, God knows what you'll think about any Death Metal band.

On another note, don't tell me to shut up. I'll say what I want to say about a band/"singer", and you can't do anything about it. So stop being immature and stop attacking me with your keyboard and just say you disagree with my opinion, here's mine: blah, blah, blah....

If I wanted better rap, I'd listen to Eminem. He blows the artists you said out of the water. Bad Childhood, check. Abusive Violence in life, check, more touching things to rap about, check. I can't stand death metal. Half the time you can't understand what they're screaming.

I do admit that 99.9% of rap is all that you just said, but I don't care about half the songs rappers have. I only like a few of them that aren't totally about having sex and gang bangin'. Besides I am so far away from a total rap fan it's not even funny. And who said I watch BET? It's called that Black Entertainment for a reason, only black people watch it and a smaller number of white people. I have that channel blocked because it's so ridiculous and monotonous.

First of all, how long have you been listening to death metal? I don't think that a lot of people are going to listen to something that takes years to understand.

Second, how does Shinoda suck when he raps about things that you say the majority of rap doesn't? The reason I like to listen to Fort Minor and LP is because not only can Mike rap fast, he's the driving force behind both bands. Thus, he must have some skill, because he writes their songs. LP would no be here without him, because without the rap, they'd be just another cookie-cutter metal band. Obviously he must be doing something right.

Third, why post about a band you don't like? Saying Shinoda is a retard is basically dissing the whole band. I don't go over to your threads and say Dani Filth is a retard because I can't understand him when he screams.

Fourth, LP should come to Kansas, again.

If I may interject...you're a completely close minded moron that only knows stereotypes. That may have been that case a couple DECADES ago but rap's evolved since then. Granted the lyrics are still kinda pointless but for the most part since lately rap has been getting dominate by southern rappers it all about dances. Granted, its not much better but I just wanted to school a moronic ninny such as yourself on how its changed.

I dont give a rats ass if you dont listen to it or if you have it blocked or whatever, Im just letting you know now, dont talk about what you dont know. Trust me, it doesnt hurt them if you have it blocked. I mean thats kinda stupid in itself, if you dont watch it then dont watch the channel.

Okay that's fine, you hate rap. Just because you hate it, doesn't mean that it sucks. You talk about some southern rappers being real, because Lil Pain (Wayne) sang a song about Katrina. Woo-hoo. Easiest way to be a "real" rapper is to sing something about a national tragedy. So you're saying the southern rappers are good because they sing things that the mainstream wants to hear? Well, I wouldn't call them good, I'd call them greedy. You want real? Go and listen to Eminem; Mockingbird, Hailie's Song, When I'm Gone, and Like Toy Soldiers all kick that southern rap's asses.

Back to Shinoda, and what Blayze Ciddy was saying. I didn't ask him to defend me, and I'm pretty sure he didn't want to defend me. You're just trying to twist our words, so it looks like you won the argument. Shinoda doesn't suck. If he did, you'd think that Linkin Park would be gone by now. And with Where'd You Go. where do you think the theme of the song came from? Letters written by Shinoda's wife. There's nothing wrong with the song. His flow in it is remarkable. What'd you want, some club beat?

And if you want real from him, listen to Kenji, off the Fort Minor Rising Tied CD. The fact that his name, plus Eminem's might not be mentioned at the top (to quote Eminem, from the song We're back: Not even in the same league as Jay-Z, Nas, Pac, Biggie...)is because of what you said. The majority of people in this country really don't know about rap, these are the same people that say 50 Cent writes his own lines, and G-Unit are geniuses.

Sure sounds like you hate it to me. If you're so much smarter, then why does Shinoda's rap suck? Frankly, I'm trying to understand. His flow is great, he raps about something other than cars, money, women, and drugs, and in those raps, you hear words that you wouldn't even think you would hear listening to rap music. So, how does he suck? Yes, I am on the opposite of the end of the intelligence spectrum compared to you, because I actually use evidence to back up my opinion. The reason I told you to shut up was because you came on here and flamed Shinoda, and called him a retard. You said his rapping sucks, but have not brought up any evidence.

Wow, a rap debate lol. Anyway, whoever said Mike Shinoda is retarded, there would be no LP without him. Let's see you play all the instruments Mike knows how to, successfully produce several albums, and write lyrics as good as Breaking the Habit.

Also, I am against the current state of rap. All the mainstream rappers only talk about "woman", money, drugs, and guns. And the lyrics are not well thought out, and the choruses of most songs are stupid and repetitive. Anyone can be a rapper these days in terms of lyrics and ability, it's just all about image.

Sme here. Got it when I was in 5th grade and have loved them ever since. While I like others more, they continually release a steady stream of good songs (although the wait this time was a bit, but il be fine with that if the rest of the album is as good as what has been released)

For those who are arguing about rap, there is a reason why different music exists, different people like different things.

Wasn't really about rap, just about a rapper. Back on topic, I've realized why they took so long to get back. They had Soooo many tours going on between Meteora and M2M. The meteora tour itself, Projekt Revolution, and others. Luckily for me, it gave me enough time to get caught up with them, lol, I only rally liked them after I heard about fort minor.

They were okay. All I could make out was screaming, though.

I think you're mistaking them for another band.

:D One of my fave LP songs. Although I love every song on that album, my faves are probably Pushing Me Away and With You, also Runaway.

BTW, is anyone else seeing them in Jersey Sunday?

Linkin Park is awesome, but they have slipped down in the band ranks for me because they had a pretty large gap between Meteora and the new songs they keep releasing. Either way, Linkin Park is a great band. Faint is a great song as well.

Also, next Saturday Night, LP will be the musical guest on SNL. Hopefully, they'll do What I've Done, and something else. Have they released any other new singles/videos?

Their new cd is a huge change, anyone who listens will notice that. Rick Ruben really stripped their sound away from them a little bit, brought them all back to earth some, too. But other then that, I can say that the new cd is pretty decent. The intro might be one of the best tracks on the cd, along with The Little Things Give You Away, Bleed it Out, and Shadow of The Day. They show what potential Linkin Park has as a band. I have a feeling that LP's 5th cd will be their best. Minutues to Midnight should be taken as Linkin Park's experiment with raw emotion and instruments. They put their first ever 6 minute song on the cd (TLTGYA) and it really shows that they can keep you interested for over 3 minutes when they want to.


So here's to hoping that the 5th album will tower over everything else they've released, and that they learn how to even out their style.

The official release date is May 15, but it leaked on the 4th. Mike commented on this saying that even if we download it, we should buy the cd for the visuals of the booklet/dvd to get the whole experience and to at least listen to the songs in order.

Bleed it Out (my favorite M2M song right now) has the rap verse/sing chorus and Hands Held High is pure rapping. That's it. Speaking of which, I listened to Bleed it Out all day today lol. That song alone makes up for pretty much the rest of the album.

Correct, but it's the song that's most similar to the old style while giving a new vibe. Given Up is great as well, and No More Sorrow is pretty good, but I'm just stuck on BIO and I like Mike's flow on the song. Given Up would probably top it for me if the bridge wasn't the way it is. It's like ok, Chester we get it; you hate your life and want to die.

Leave Out All the Rest and another song sound like they should be heard in the end credits of a movie.

With You is the best remix IMO. Anyway, I'm in love with M2M now lol. The only songs I don't like that I remember are Hands Held High and the one where Mike sings the whole time. No More Sorrow reminds me of AFI for some reason lol. Does anyone else think In Peices could be about Chester's divorce?

I know that it was pretty different from what they've ever done, but I loved it.

Well, LP is on SNL tonight. I hope they perform What I've Done and Hands Held High, because those are my two favorites from M2M
