Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park

Pros: Much better than you'd ever assume from their singles.
Cons: Ends too quickly and leaves you wanting way too much more; Bennington's fantastic voice isn't taken advantage of enough

Rarely does a band come along that really, honest-to-God surprises you. SR-71 (the extremely under-rated and over-looked group that appeared for about week on MTV, and disappeared; fantastic CD. Buy it now) & Alien Ant Farm (a...

Pros: Vocals, arrangements, influences nicely blended, sometimes lyrics
Cons: Jack of all trades...master of none?

Each aspect of the musical styles fused on this album have been done better BUT not all on one album. I don’t listen to the radio (only NPR) much as the repetition just irritates me and lack of fresh sound can drive you mad….so I have not been pounded...

Pros: Oddly beautiful rap-rock.
Cons: Could definately afford to tighten up the lyrics.

If you've been reading my stuff, you might remember that I already reviewed this CD once. Unfortunately, it also happened to be one of the worst reviews i've ever done for this site. In addition to many factual errors (I credited vocalist Mike...

Pros: Catchy song lyrics, a perfect mix of rapping and melody
Cons: "Cure for the Itch"? Uh...ok....

When I first started thinking of what I should write for the Linkin Park CD "Hybrid Theory" review, I was going to give them a thundering applause for what a talented CD they were able to create, but after hearing some rumours that they were creating a...

Pros: Chester's vocals. Great blending of styles. Guitars are great, as is Mr. Hahn. Great flow.
Cons: It's kinda short.

Linkin Park released Hybrid Theory back in late October of 2000, and although radio stations overplayed every single, and I have listened to the album countless times, I still find myself listening to this album and I am still amazed by the ...

Pros: Lyrics are well thought out, Great Rock Techniques, Every Song Is Good!
Cons: The Album Is To Short!

About a week ago, I was cruising through my local Music CD shop. I knew what I wanted, I wanted the album Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park.
I was flipping through the CD's in the L section and I finally found, Hybrid Theory.
The cover was artistic...

Pros: Great riffs, and no swears (how'd that happen?)
Cons: too short, some songs are similiar.

With "Hybrid Theory", most people either love or hate it. They love the haunting melodies, border-line-oppressive guitar riffs, and near-sing-a-long lyrics. They hate the stereotypical-ness (which is pretty much non-existent), the singer's (Chester...

Pros: Meaningful, honest lyrics- and interesting, infectious songs
Cons: Can hurt your ears, and I wish Chester would sing often instead of scream

I purchased Linkin Park's Hybrid Theory album after hearing the song "In The End", which is one of the singles they have released, and what I believe is one of the best songs on the album. Overall, I was pleasantly surprised. Typically I dislike...

Pros: Solid Lyrics, No cussing and dirty lyrical content, great mix of rap/rock.
Cons: Too short of an album-- 12 songs/37 minutes.

On October 24 of last year, Linkin Park dropped their debut album, "Hybrid Theory." The album was talked about all over MTV2 and rock radio stations around the country, and said to be one of the greatest albums in rock for the year. After hearing the...

Pros: No cussin' means kiddies can get it.. Its grown up enough for anyone else
Cons: Not a thing

I don't think I have ever heard a debut album that is so collectively solid as this one is. Although it may be due to the fact that Linkin Park has been together for a very long time.. I met Chester (one of the vocalists) here in Atlanta at one of the...

Pros: Two singers work well. Well written compared to most of the genre's artists.
Cons: With you and Cure for the itch are weak.

Last fall Linkin Park released their major lable debut "Hybrid Theory". On the strength of the singles "One Step Closer" and "Crawling", and the newly released "In the End" the album is pushing towards double platinum. The Album debuted at number...

Pros: They're taking a risk like Reese took with the peanut butter and chocolate.
Cons: They are a cute boy-band as well. (Peanut butter, chocolate, and honey!)

Stinkin Barf - My weird Theory: Silverchair was a grunge band. Then, after grunge disappeared from Popular Radio Formats, Silverchair resurfaced with a new sound that resembled classic rock. Now, with the popularity of...

Pros: The band shows a lot of potential for new material.
Cons: Lyrics are pretty weak. Nothing entirely great. Way to SHORT!!! The "other" singer

When I first bought this CD I really hated it. I listened to it all the way through once and then put it away to collect dust for a couple months. I found that the music was unoriginal and boring. The lyrics were not at all what I was expecting, but...

Pros: tight beats, tight rhymes, and hot singing.
Cons: not enough songs on the album to play with. But that's basically it nothing else.

Linkin Park is one if not the number 1 band in the year 2001. Their album is one of the best selling albums this year selling more than 3 million copies. Their videos are different and cool, and that's what I like about Linkin Park, they are different in...

Pros: great vocal harmony, incredible array of instruments and genres combined
Cons: lyrics are 7th grade quality, don't expect master guitar-work, some songs sound the same

I have pretty diverse tastes. I'll listen to punk, techno, rap, rock, mood music (alrigt I was younger then. you have to admit that return to innocence is incredible though) and on many occaisions I'll come up with a song in my head that sounds pretty...
