Another day and it would be exactly 2 months since my last blog post. I’ve started working at a new company and I just haven’t got the time to blog. So what brings me out of this “blogging comatose”? First, a little about my new office. It is roughly about 15 kilometers from my house. Abnormally it would take me 15 minutes to get there, but normally in the fucking jam it takes me around an hour. So everyday, I need fresh music to keep me company in the jam.
So far my favorite has been Ozzy Osbourne. Listened David Guetta’s One Love yesterday and it was alright. However today, it was Linkin Park’s A Thousand Suns that was supposed to keep me calm and focused on the road. Instead, I almost ripped out my CD player and threw it at the Bangla that was sweeping the road.
What the fuck happened to Linkin Park? A Thousand Suns sucked so bad. Seriously they have been making pretty bad music recently. My all time favorite Linkin Park album would have to be Hybrid Theory. And my all time Linkin Park favorite song would have to be One Step Closer. Meteora (2nd album) was pretty good too with tracks like Faint and Numb. Then one day Linkin Park woke up and decided, “Hey lets be Linkin Suck for a change eh?” and made Minutes to Midnight.
When I listen to Linkin Park I expect an adrenaline rush, it is like almost making you angry, but in a nice way. But when I listened to A Thousand Suns this morning, it made me angry alright. It fucking pissed me off and I wanted to punch somebody in the fucking face. Its like you get into a Lamborghini, it makes you want to drive fast, because you know it can. When I put in the Linkin Park cd this morning, I expected to get rocked out. Instead, some bastard took the fucking engine out of the Lamborghini!
There is only 1 good track in A Thousand Suns called Waiting For The End. By good I mean you could listen to it but if nobody told you it was a Linkin Park song you would have thought it was by 311. Excessive use of electronic drums in A Thousand Suns totally fucked the album up.
I’m starting to believe that Hybrid Theory and Meteora was a fluke. Maybe their true style is electronic music with shitty rap and senseless shouting. If Mike Shinoda wants to rap, he should start his own fucking rap band or something. I’m sorry but I’m not much of a rap fan. Yo yo, wassup my shizzle fosizzle. That just doesn’t work for me.
I am totally fucking disappointed with their latest album. If you thought Minutes to Midnight was bad, this is even worse. I would liken this album to watching Gossip Girls without the girls.
Some say Linkin Park wanted to try something new. But I believe if its not broken, dont fucking fix it. Not everyone is as good as Greenday. We all remember the good old Basket Case and When I Come Around days. Greenday’s transformation from that to Boulevard of Broken Dreams and 21 Guns was simply amazing.
Linkin Park, start listening to your first 2 albums, this new shit you guys are doing, its pure garbage. It’s no wonder why I find myself listening to Katy Perry and Kelly Clarkson so much nowadays.
