Hybrid Theory (2000)
Like many perfectly reasonable and intelligent people, I happen to get a fair amount of enjoyment out of this album. I don’t care how you characterize their sound or their influences, what we have here is some catchy hard rock/pop. And when I say some, it’s with a bit of disappointment. I was looking forward to more after the first five tracks, but the quality definitely dips a bit. Some good songs here, though, and definitely worth a listen.
(“One Step Closer”)
Grade: B-
The song I really like from them is “In The End” because it touched me and I know what it’s like to do everything for one person but, in the end, it didn’t matter.
