How much longer will LP last?

[FireHawk]

few bands can stay together that long without killing each other and booting some members, thing with lp is, unlike G&R and ACDC its not just 1 person that makes the band

ACDC is not by any means just a one person band

[GraDoN]

ACDC is not by any means just a one person band

yes they are, they can all die cept the singer and it will all sound the same

[Jeezy]

Nothing lasts forever

 

let's be honest

 

I mean LP are not the stones

[FireHawk]

yes they are, they can all die cept the singer and it will all sound the same

 

that is a very, very ignorant statement if you know the history of ACDC

[GraDoN]

that is a very, very ignorant statement if you know the history of ACDC

i dont.

[FireHawk]

They have had two singers already and the Young Brothers (two guitar players) are the biggest contributers to there music

[Friðbjörn]

bands can stay the same even if the main man quits. look at sepultura. they aren't the same soundwise, but they're still sepultura. they changed their sound when max left

[O_o1730760741]

The more i listened to M2M the more i warmed to its new sound even though a lot of songs were borderline. I just hope they dont go too soft. Im new around here by the way nice to meet you all

yeh they need to keep some heavy stuff imo, and welcome:)

i think the better question is "How long will this bitching about MTM last?"

 

Look, linkin park came out greak with Hybrid Theory, classic nu-metal ablum. then like a year later they came out with meteora. that album was very boring, almost every lyric sounded the same, the only songs that are worth listening to are Easier To Run, Hit The Floor, and From the Inside. that album was complete trash, it was cool and fun to listen to when it first came out, but it does not age well at all.

 

MTM is CLASSIC album, boo fucking hoo that there are "soft" songs on that album...um i hate to break it to you guys but Shadow of The Day was a huge hit, it did so much better then Bleed It Out, and that song is like there old stuff, so what does that tell you??? That RAP ROCK IS DEAD!!! had they done an album like Meteora it would have sounded terrible, that time of music is now gone. MTM has hard stuff and has more meaningful stuff.

 

You fans are dumbfucks, the majority of the album sales came from Shadow Of The Day, if they hadn't have released that and just left it as What I've Done and Bleed It Out as singles, they would have only stayed at 1 million records sold, Shadow of the day did great, it took them to 2 mill, and now given up has been getting played alot. so instead of asking how long are they going to last the question should be how will they die.

 

MTM was given great reviews, the only people who don't like it are the ones who can't grow with an artist and there music.

you're a bit misguided if you think HT was soooo much better than Meteora. they're very similar in almost every way. hence Meteora being called the follow-up.

sure, they have evolved with MTM, and they have good moments, but just because they evolved doesn't mean that they automatically rock now.

and one thing, you can't judge bands solely on money they make, sold records and chart positions.

nowadays being played a lot means that you're making music that's bland enough for the big radios and tv stations to think it's gonna get them big money if they play it.

 

people should let them grow, but we shouldn't automatically swallow MTM as some Messiah-album just because they changed their style. blind faith is never a good thing.

A follow up means its the album after the album they just released, genius. that has nothing to do with the albums sounding the same or not.

 

LOL i misguided because HT is better then Meteora???? lets look at this

 

Papercut/there is nothing on Meteora remotely like this.

 

One Step Closer/ Don't stay, also known as One step closer pt2. they tried to remake that song, and as fun don't stay is to rock out to in a concert its a very boring track anywhere else because it doesn't age well.

 

With You/Lying From You/Faint/Figure .09. all three of those tracks from meteora were part two's to With You and none of them held up when it came to lyrical content, emotion wise they were subpar to With You, again linkin park tried to do the same thing and it failed.

 

Crawling/Easier To Run/Numb, those two tracks again were failed attempts of remaking Crawling, as much as i love easier to run i can see that there is the flaw they couldn't out do the tracks they already made from HT.

 

as much as i'd like to keep going im not going to cuz i proved my point. Meteora was a failed attempt at that trying to recreate HT.

 

Yes i know album sales don't mean anything, i was just saying that there biggest hit was a song that was complete change from HT and Meteora.

 

MTM has given them more fans, i see guys in there forty's buying that cd, and buying hoodies specifically saying Minutes To Midnight on the back, so obviously its just fans who like to whine just to whine who don't like the album, but this album has given them more fans, whether or not they lost some im sure they feel bad but at the sametime when you create a masterpiece your not going to feel too bad knowing you gained some new fans.

[Stenners]

To the 40yr olds, mid life crisis

 

Why are you deffending a band that just re-programmed pro-tools to make Meteora, thats lack of imagination there and possibly their biggest flaw pointed out, their formulatic attitude to music.. its lazy.

 

And M2M wasnt given great reviews its been pretty much slated by every publication as a band trying to trick the listener with

false maturity, I applaud the bands attempt at softer rock and trying to stray from the norm of their sound.... but it just hasnt

been done well at all... it got a very low score on the metacritic score chart which is scored off of various publications and isnt

the opinion of one. The critics hated it, the lp fans hated it... the only people that liked it are the kind of people that think Gorrilaz

is an experimental band and that Kerrang is a creditable publication.

wow great response.

alright I can agree that it's not as good as HT, but other than that you ignored the big point here. they didn't exactly make an album free of clichés or rich in continent

 

gaining fans...they're just gaining fans cause MTM is more mellow and more like easy listening elevator music than the numetal they used to play, for the most part.

 

sure, they did change, cause they were getting nowhere with the old style, but it's not like they went animal collective in trying new things. they just went from a subgenre that although full of clichés was only being played (their style anyway) by a handful of bands, to styles and sounds that are all over mainstream media already, being played by 10 times more bands...

Albums represent the artist. Therefore, MTM was the most offensive album there could be to me. IT'S BLASPHEMY TO ME. And that's me putting it lightly for ya'll.

LP ain't gonna last with this attitude. Take a step back from the mirror and see what Chester and the band has done to LP's image. They look like another fucking MCR. Their songs are the same, there's no variation as demonstrated by such songs like "What I've Done" and "Shadow of the Day". Go back to the real LP for a second and comapare variations like "Sessions" to "Crawling". They were the good songs. LP has given into popularism. LP is dead.

So don't say I'm a dumb fuck when you obviously can't smell popularism even if it came and hit you in the ass.

[Stenners]

So the way u say it LP never were into the mainstream marketing thing despite setting out to sound like a genre in peak popularity and then do it again in 2007

 

Just becaus people had long hair, were greasy and represented skulls, wrestling and Xtreme sports doesnt make them any more alternative then the skinny jeaned whineo's of today, u were just to young to see it.

[woodyloveslinkin]

Not saying that at all. Just pointing out how popularism nowadays has effected LP and their attitude more now then ever.

In other words.... LINKIN PARK IS OVER COMMERCIALISED AND SOLD OUT...

Excuse me Matt, I'm only like a year younger than you...if that was pointed to me.

[Stenners]

Nooo im including myself in this argument

[woodyloveslinkin]

C'mon Matt. I dare you to get all revved up about it.

[Stenners]

I mean I included myself into the argument as in I meant I was too young to see it as well, the only reasson why we classed old LP as alternative is cause Kerrang and MTV told us, now MTV and Kerrang are telling us the same now but we are old enough to see it for what it is.... do u remember when boy bands were COOL in ur eyes?

[woodyloveslinkin]

Yeah when I was 11 and I was in love with the Backstreet Boys. Linkin Park is just gonna go down in history as the band that ULTIMATELY lost the plot. I'm starting to wonder if M Shadows just only joined to argue his/her point over MTM.

[Stenners]

Nah they wont go down as the band that lost the plot, they were never credible enough in the first place. Orchestra Manouvers In The Dark... now that a band that lost the plot
