    I'm sure LP has some rationale for why they released that song first but I'm not gonna believe that BID wasn't written for the purpose of being a radio friendly single. There's a definite difference in quality in terms of song structures, lyrics and even bland samples and instruments. It feels just like their last two play it safe which were (WID and SIB) that share the same characteristics. EDIT: And if it were purely about a high energy song they could have released LITE. BID has "safe first single" written all over it.

    I've heard some pants-on-head silly things on this forum, but wow...

    Lost In The Echo? Yes, I'd agree there. The next 11 songs? Hell no.

    The closest thing Living Things would be is A Thousand Suns using Minutes to Midnight influences and minus the interludes. The energy resembles Hybrid Theory - that's all.



    Linkin "sold-out" with Meteora. Ever since Minutes to Midnight began recording they've never touched the concept since. Case closed.

    No they haven't. Don't be an idiot and recognise that times change and LP keeps up by constantly evolving.

    Fucks sake, close this stupid thread.

    Their debut was the highest selling album of 2001, and the 11th highest of the decade. The only way for them to sell out would be to do what they did with Meteora.

    Yes, this. This is why I'm fed up of these "What is better, song XY or song YZ?" threads.

    I think PT37 was trolling us the whole time. No-one except mainstream fans could possibly be that stupid.

    No, Linkin Park have not sold out and Living Things is NOT Hybrid Theory Part 3 at all.

    Also, this thread is going nowhere. Closed.
