Let's Discuss Linkin Park!

As FaSho says above, In The End was one of the first rock songs that I heard that I can really remember bonding with friends over.

I was raised on a cocktail of Deep Purple, Black Sabbath, Nazareth, Al Green and Ella Fitzgerald so I was always open, and still am, to listening to anything at least once. Music is there to be enjoyed regardless of genre, someone is going to like it and that might be me.

Linkin Park to me came at a time where I was finding my own feet in terms of music taste. Granted it eventually turned out to be as ****ed as my dad's taste in music but it worked for me and a lot of Linkin Park songs were part of that time.

I think quite a few people try to distance themselves from bands when bands try to experiment with different styles and it maybe doesn't connect as well as other albums did with those people. I respect bands like that. They are artists after all and should be remembered as such.
