why won't chester bennington just die already?
Deadpan:
As far as I know, Chester Bennington doesn't actually do anything in Linkin Park except "sing". I think it's Mike Shinoda who writes the music and lyrics, so if you want to blame anyone, blame him.
I used to be all over LP when I was 14-15. Upon hitting 16, I realised that there are probably 10 year olds more literate than the lyricist, and the music was just plain dull.

--- Quote from: Shaft ---If something isn't catchy, has godawful chord progressions, and sounds like it was recorded in a large tin shed with a fisher-price karaoke machine it's unlikely to be great.

"God-awful chord progressions" is an opinion, and there's nothing wrong with LoFi.
Listen to Iron and Wine's first album and tell me that the rather bootleg production hinders it. In a way, it actually helps it. XP
heretic:
TO: everyone saying this topic sucks
From: your friendly nieghborhood heretic
Content: i started this thread because i was uber bored at work and had bullshit linkin park running through my head "LIKE IT OR NOT RIGHT NOOOOOOOOW!!!!oneoneone" since i am not allowed music at work (even headphones) all i could do was jam pointy things in my ears in an attempt to get the bad out and relieve the pain. this did not work. so i started this thread to get my mind off it and to bitch about linkin park. i never expected it to actually get replys other than, yeah, what's your point? and this was a dumb topic and then people would forget about it. i think it'sd kinda funny this got to two pages when it is obviously a pretty shallow topic. typing for the sake of typing? fine by me :)
a pack of wolves:
--- Quote from: ForteBass ---That's an interesting outlook, but I'm afraid I have a problem right here:
--- Quote from: maxusy3k ---ultimately, an artist or group is invariably releasing records to make money.
--- End quote ---
To say that all artists everywhere are releasing records simply for the sake of making money is a tad off base. It's like saying the great painters of the world are just whores. Yes, there are plenty of people making albums simply for the money, but not anywhere near all of them.

I totally agree with that. I've got a lot of friends who operate on a strict DIY ethic with their music, which in a very condensed form is about completely resisting the idea of making music for money, which is also the way I'm planning to approach things with a few musical projects I have in the pipeline.

--- Quote from: KharBevNor ---But Europe and Poison totally SMOKE Nirvana! Bon Jovi I'm more indifferent to, but I'd kill (or at least injure) to have stuff like 'The Final Countdown' on the radio rather than the alt-rock and faux-indie garbage I hear today.

ok whoa, holdup. this is where i get off.
