the suckery of Linkin Park now is hitting overdrive.

Very true, to this day I never understood why people like this band.

I remember when Linkin Park was good -- kind of makes me wonder why I spent $25 on a special edition of this with a DVD and shit. Kinda sucks, as I wasn't expecting this crappy of an album.

New album is too 'abstract' to be a concept album, Mike Shinoda says.

Pile of shit that song is

[Bodhi]

This new album fucking blows...absolutely terrible.

[Axlfanatic]

This new album fucking blows...absolutely terrible.

 I believe it-haven't heard the whole thing, but from what I've heard not to excited bout the direction their going-nothing wrong with some experimental, but not sounding like Linkin Park much anymore

[Bodhi]

they actually recorded this album without choruses...you know, the best/ catchy part of any song...

[mrlee]

Linkin Park sucked on there third album, there was no way they were gonna do another good album after that.

Interesting.  A lot of the responses to this record remind me of responses to other albums where artists deviated from their traditional sound, like Metallica with Load/Reload, Megadeth with Risk, U2 with No Line On The Horizon and GN'R with Chinese Democracy.  Although, the latter was obviously colored with a lot of resentment for not having Slash on the record.

I guess a lot of people have a set idea of what a band should sound like and don't react well when that is not the sound they get on a new record. 

I'm not saying this is the case with ALL responses to this record, but certainly some.  And, I've seen this pattern with the aforementioned albums as well.

Yeah, but sometimes it's just shit

Note saying I think it's shit lol, I didn't even hear it.

I loved Minutes To Midnight, but what I've heard of this album hasn't impressed me. I think they've gone too left field and have lost a bit of what defines them.
