View More By Linkin Park Our ReviewWith their third album in seven years, Linkin Park has started to move beyond the rap-metal template that made the band icons in the first half of the 2000s. Lead single “Shadow of the Day” features strings and an unusually tender vocal from Chester Bennington. Of course, one can’t discount the bleak refrain lying just under the song’s sweet surface: “The shadow of the day / Will embrace the world in grey.” “Valentine’s Day” and “Leave Out All the Rest” follow the blueprint of “Shadow of the Day,” and at first it seems that Linkin Park might now have more in common with Coldplay than Korn. But “Given Up,” “Bleed It Out,” and “No More Sorrow” are furious performances that match, and perhaps even outdo, classic Linkin Park songs like “Numb” and “Crawling.” Producer Rick Rubin has brought out the best in the band, and with Minutes to Midnight they manage to incorporate new sounds and attitudes without abandoning the aggressive rock that made them a household name..

Instead, they present a slow, short intro track with a synth-heavy melody and a nice building ambiance, which gradually increases in volume. 4/5 2. Given Up The smoothness is soon thrown out the window however when the scratchy turntable sound of this second track Linkin Park Breaks the Habit (2 stars) Now, trust me when I say that I’ve been listening to Linkin Park since Hybrid Theory seven years ago (I was nine-years-old back then) and I’ve been through almost every passing phase of LP fandom since then. Yeah, you know what I’m talking about…like, enjoyment every once and a while, directly followed by obsession, even more obsession, and then some serious regression as the obsession starts to take its toll, only to rekindled by a BiographyFormed: 1996 in Los Angeles, CAGenre: Rock Years Active: '90s, '00s, '10s Although rooted in alternative metal, Linkin Park became one of the most successful acts of the early 2000s by welcoming elements of hip-hop, modern rock, and atmospheric electronica into their music. The band's rise was indebted to the aggressive rap-rock movement made popular by the likes of Korn and Limp Bizkit, a movement that paired grunge's alienation with a bold, buzzing soundtrack. Linkin Park added a unique spin to that formula, however, focusing as much on the vocal interplay between singer...
