I like LINKIN PARK. That's nice. I loved LINKIN PARK. That was better. Oddly enough, I've lost interest after "Minutes To Midnight". Strange because the songs were bursting out in front of melodies. Since I usually find great, I have my first sniff itself does not get it. Maybe I was irritated by the sudden closeness to U2 or by the distance from your sound. When I think about it to me quite likely both. The downside of progress ... Previously, I had absolutely no urge me the following, reportedly smooth arg number-Safe-productions "A Thousand Suns" and "Living Things" to listen. The is now reawakened. Even for that I can not name a reason; the new, sixth album "The Hunting Party" I wanted to hear anyway ABSOLUTELY. Could be on the cover: Armor which draws the bow; ready to hunt you his arrow in the ass. And around you go hunting apparently because ... Or no, command returns: In the booklet is: ".. Now is the time to charge forward into the unknown The Hunting Party" Sounds politically, is not it? But what matters is the music. And the offers finally melodies and muscles. After extensive enjoyment of the 12 songs I'd "The Hunting Party" summarized as follows: Homogeneous linking "Hybrid Theory" and "Meteora" with the knowledge of today. 2014 plays Brad Delson several (!) Although short, but good and effective guitar solos, for example, in-thrashy punk "War". In this sense, Delson has also produced and together with Mike Shinoda created a sound that, although aggressive - the word appeared in any review of "The Hunting Party" on - is, but lets the nuances nevertheless emerge clearly. The focus is stronger than ever on guitar and drums, because Shinoda, dissatisfied with the streamlined stuff he heard on the radio, remembered what it hailed as teenagers on a plate. And even if I the sense of the instrumental piece "Drawbar" (with Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine as a guest) and the one-minute sound sequence "The Summoning" so far has not developed: In the remaining pieces LINKIN PARK have packed everything they currently have on the pan. One can not stop marveling how naturally everything is including guest posts linked together, as if it could only be otherwise so and. Some numbers pack a best in "Easier To Run" style immediately, while others must be earned only - to wonder then why was not immediately enthusiastic about it. Much is taken initially not true. No, no title at this point. It's much more fun to find out yourself! And exactly that is what boils: The fun is back - with the band and their fans. I did not expect, but it is fun again to hear LINKIN PARK. They actually sound as exciting as on their first two drives. That's why I'm sure that you will talk about "The Hunting Party" in a few years a lot more positive than his two predecessors. It is enjoying a very different appreciation. Hey, I love LINKIN PARK again! This is soooo cool !!! Really cool is the DVD that contains a gig from 12.9.2012 in Monterrey. The Mexican fans raging, the band is in top form and bubbling with enthusiasm (What an interaction!). Especially Mike Shinoda all the time grinning like a schoolboy on a successful match. "All the time" but does not take as given 50 minutes. There are actually only 43! Meanness !! Smiling-Shark.com
