Review - Music

Linkin Park is one of the best known in alternative metal music groups. They began the first album in the name of ‘’Hybrid Theory‘’ at 2000. Three years later, the second album called ‘’Meteora’’ was released. And now the third album called ‘’Minute to Midnight’’ has been sold in every music stores. Linkin Park is one of my best music groups as well as their first album was my best of all.

Hybrid Theory is the album that opened my mind to enjoying alternative metal music. At that time, I have never heard a lot of melodic mixture music before. I like rap and rock music. I usually listen to only rap songs or only rock songs. Since I had listen to this album, Linkin Park can arrange rap and hard rock in each music with suitable blending. It is original and individual from other bands that made me wonder and interested so much. This album was released when I was at high school student and I did not study English so I did not understand the meaning of the lyrics. I just enjoyed the sound, the beat and the melody. However, that is enough for me. When I had a party with my friends, we often listen to this album which made us dance and jump. Each track on this album is fascination on its own. My favorite song is “In the end”, this song include all of the sounds of Linkin Park, electronic guitar, hardcore drum, electronic vibes, scratching and rapping-roaring from two vocalists, are all present precisely. The powerful melody from the music instruments make me feel great emotion and happiness.

In addition, the band members seem professional of each music instrument. They were in their earlier twenties at that time but their album is the higher quality one in the world so that is my reason to memorize this album. In my opinion, “Hybrid Theory” has great band members and great music, so it is the great album as well.
