What did you think about the album ?
At first, I saw Linkin park perform at the VMA's the song Catalyst, and heart it on the radio. I was really pissed off and dissapointed about the new sound.
Then, I got curious, took a listen to the whole album, and then I realized that I really judged them too fast. This is one of the best album I've heard so far.
Mainly for that reason that it IS an album. It's not only a bunch of songs put together. It has this continuity, this unifying message that is at the root of every song.
Even their sampling of speeches are, to my eyes, full of signification. Their rendition of Martin Luther King's speech "Wisdom, Justice and Love" fading out to a robotized voice is so telling...
My favorite tracks are : Robot boy, Wretches and King, Iridescent and Waiting for the End.
Now let me hear your opinion !
