Yep, That sounds right.

Spoon fed rock that's unoriginal and I can find anywhere. Too poppy for me.

theyre poor musicians, song writers, lyricists... nothing good about them.

And they could get a new song topic...or emotion...or chord.

I find their songs to be too similar, they all seem to have the same tune and the same type of lyrics.

But I guess it is unfair for me to judge as I have only heard their chart stuff.

I don't like the vocals, they lame guitar play, the melodies and the lyrics. It is so sloppy and un-original.

I agree with this statement.

I remember reading somewhere in a trade magazine a couple of years ago that the record company invested so much money in them on promotion & advertising that they needed to sell 12 million copies of their debut album just to break even. It only sold around 8 or 9 million and so they put out a cheaply made remix album just to try and recoup some of that money.

I`d say they`re the epitomy of a corporate pop band.

I agree with this. They're just an average Nu-metal mainstream band for young teenagers in my opinion. I don't hate them, but i don't like them either. To be honest, I haven't heard much of their music though.

I think Chester Bennington screams just a lil too much when he sings, (it's a wonder how he never has a soar throat)...
