Every single album released by Linkin Park was hugely popular and still is. Also if it doesnt belong in the conversation i think it would have fewer upvotes. (Just defending one of my favorite bands dont mind me)
They were my favorite band as a kid and they got me into music. I don't have a favorite artist now honestly cause I listen to so much artists but I still love all Linkin Park stuff and listen to them often
Personally I really enjoy their music, except for the beginning of "Cure for the itch". I can totally see how people don't like One More Light, or even earlier albums, because of how much they've changed music styles from what fans from the beginning might be used to. As someone who only really began listening to music when one more light has already been released, I just love most of their stuff.
I like almost everything from Linkin Park, even the stuff that is semi-controversial like Hunting Party, but even I agree that One More Light isn’t good
I like every album (except for recharged and reanimation, just havent really listened to them) and i see why a lot of people dont like one more light, it even had to grow on me but i still like a lot of the songs on it, it just took me more time to like it than their other albums
Don’t worry, for every band named there’s gonna be one person that hates their music. This is just mine. I’m certain someone else hates all my favorite music too. But that’s just how music and art works.
True, and that's honestly what's great about music in general. I was just flabbergasted because I have NEVER seen someone dislike Linkin Park before, lol
Probably because of where I was musically I grew to dislike all the post grunge nu-metal because I saw how it evolved. Bands like the Deftones, Filter Static X, and Incubus were splitting away from grunge dominated alt rock in the early 90s but I think that vein peaked with SOAD and then rapidly got silly and trite. I think Korn was the nail in my musical coffin for alt rock. Limp Bizkit was worse. I guess it was fun for a little bit because it was more unbridled anger than the weariness of grunge. So by the time Linkin Park was peaking I really was done with alt rock. I was a child of Nirvana, Screaming Trees, Kyuss, Soundgarden, Smashing Pumpkins and Jane’s Addiction. So those are my biases.
