Since The Hunting Party cycle has ended, I've been receiving a few suggestions to revive the session thread. Just wondered what the general consensus is right now. We could continue now or wait until a possible THP demo surfaces on LPU XV?
I'll leave the decision up to you, but do consider that once LP announces a new album, the amount of people here daily will double up, and you're undoubtedly gonna have more responses.
I think one of the big problems LT had is that it followed ATS, and that exacerbated how formulaic and samey the first half of the album felt. It's a good album, especially the second half, but it had its problems.
I've always have had a love / hate relationship with Linkin Park. After all this time, I've come to accept that LP was the band that made me an avid fan of music. They'll always hold a special place with me, even if I don't really listen to them anymore. Hell, I even find Meteora enjoyable from time-to-time.
It sounds like the song was filtered in order to highlight the vocals, resulting in the rest sounding like - well, crap. But I'm probably wrong.
YES! -- Who thinks that Aubrey One might as well be a demo from 2002? Excluding intro and outro, every other element sounds exactly like in the Meteora demos, imo. Even the guitars have the same tone.
As of writing this, Hybrid Theory has just turned 15 years old. I wonder what the band will do in celebration of the anniversary.
