Talk about contradicting yourself.

dude like half of linkin parks shit is the work of their dj...if you listen to their stuff theres always scratching or sampling or something in the background...on every album they have atleast 1 track just by him...at every concert they give him like a 5 minute solo...the guy is probably the 2nd best part of the group behind mike shinoda.

Yeah exactly. The only reason they have a DJ is to try and get some hiphop credibility by having all that stuff in there songs.

lol you need to listen to more linkin park man...the main reason that (I) consider them partly hip hop is because of mike shinoda
On The Edge of Insanity:
Like I said in my first post, I had their first album and it was horrible, One Step Closer was the only decent track on the whole album. Mike Shinoda is ok, but he's just a rapper in a rock group, not the leader of some brilliant rock/hiphop hybrid. The blonde dude who sings is awful, I can't stand his voice at all, and he for me ruins any chance of the group making a consistantly dope album. The DJ is pretty tight, I'm not saying that he isn't, but I feel the whole group is trying to pretend to be something they really aren't to make themselves appeal to a larger audience. They have been very cleverly marketed, which I think gives the perception that they put more thought into their output they most other similar bands. When I hear them talking in interviews they do say some thoughful and cleaver stuff, but when you listen to their actual songs you wonder if its the same people that you heard speaking in the interview.
I only hold them in slightly higher esteem than the group i'm guessing that DJ line was aimed at (Limp Bizkit), and that is not very high at all.
Don Breezio:
see if you've only heard their first album then you havent heard any of what i would consider hip hop...mr. hahn didn't have nearly as much to do on their first album as he did on reanimation & meteora...i can gauruntee you'd like reanimation...its nothing but hip hop...all those guests i mentioned earlier...came from that 1 album...those lines i mentioned earlier were all from straight hip hop songs that dropped before hybrid theory (it was from the hybrid theory EP) and also the song w/ the x-ecutioners.
i dont think they have anything to do with marketing...yeah one step closer came out and it blew but they've had fans since long before that (including myself)...i'd say 90% of their fanbase is people who don't give a flying fuck how popular they are or how well marketed they are...its people who enjoy their music straight up...i hate most things that are popular...i'll admit it im a hater. but i love linkin park and unless they start making wack ass tracks and becoming the snoop dogg of rock then i'll still love them until i die.
