Free Music Notes for Meteora
Free Music Review: GARBAGE
Hit: 1 Stars
joe fleckenstein here to give you my opion about this posotively awful album. first of all im not a linkin park fan THANK GOD! just someone who had to endure the pain of listening to his friend eugene talk about how great this band is. well theyre not. The singer is whiny and irritating. the guitar work is atricious and nothing else is of special intrest either. Absolutely terrible and if you think otherwise youve never heard good music. might i suggest metalica. led zepplin. pantera. slayer. queen etc. Free Music Review: If you rated this below 5 stars, you're obviously missing the point...

I've been a Linkin Park fan for about 6 years and I admit, wasn't expecting much when I picked up this CD in early '03. Boy was I wrong, every song on this CD could most definitely be a single. While I absolutely despise radio and all it represents (except for Howard Stern...), I understand why a band would want their album to be radio-friendly (it sells a lot more records...). When I heard "Somewhere I Belong", like most people, I admit, I didn't like it. But I thought, hell, I loved Hybrid Theory, and it's Linkin Park, I should pick it up. (I know there are a lot of Reanimation fans, sorry guys, wasn't into it, if I wanted to listen to techno I would go to a dance club...) I was aching for new Linkin Park when this came out, I wasn't disappointed, I own over 300 CDs and I still listen to this one. If you haven't picked it up, and you are Linkin Park fan, you're insane, it is soooooooo much better than Hybrid Theory.Free Music Review: An amalgam of styles that works

My music taste runs from deep house, techno and chill-out to rock (like 311, Helmut and Paw), Brit pop and some recent bands like Mutemath. And yet I seem to always return to Linkin Park, loving their blend of musical styles (heavy, electronic, hip-hop) and the band's raw energy. That energy is embodied in lead singer Chester Bennington, whose vocals range from liquid sweetness to soaring power. LP guitars, while sometimes dismissed as repetitive power chords, are highly appropriate for this music and VERY well done (It's also about the sound that guitarist Brad Delson gets; he's one cool dude). Moreover, LP are gifted songwriters and have very good ideas of melody; they have my full respect! Free Music Review: Slightly Emo-esque, but still an awesome CD
Hit: 5 Stars
Yes, most of "Meteora's" lyrics seem like they were written by an angst-filled teenage girl rebelling against her parents who "just don't get her". And no, there is really not much variety in the themes of the songs. But the CD is still a 5-star listen. It truly is one of the few CDs I own where I won't skip a single track. Usually I despise any form of rap / hip hop, but Linkin Park is able to successfully blend it in with their rock music in a way acceptable to even the biggest Young Jeezy haters. Vastly superior to Hybrid Theory, Meteora is an excellent CD from what has become one of my favorite bands. Now, if you're into hard metal, this is probably not for you - it seems many of the negative reviews are from Slayer fans who can't stand "Nu metal". But really, Linkin Park is not metal - more of a blend of rock and rap, with some funky electronics thrown in courtesy of Mr. Han.
Overall: highly reccommended, even if you're only a modest Linkin Park fan. It is definitely their best CD to date. And there's just some much intensity behind those angsty screams!
Free Music Review: Very deep songs

I'm a writer, and I find this CD perfect to listen to when writing. It's very deep and emotional, and has a pretty dark backbeat mixed with lyrics that make you feel like your life is perfect compared to theirs. It's also good to put on when you feel like laying in your bed, hating the world.
