That transformers 2 song has the same chords as What I've done. What a bunch of shit.

O RLY? I didn't know there was any kind of connection between that movie and the band.

Honestly I was expecting to not like MTM at all, but everything before Valentine's Day is pretty damn good.

Valentine's Day lyrics are really bad but the music is great.

You must be joking. They did the main theme for that movie.

And it sucks.

MTM was horrible except for 2-3 songs.

Meteora was pretty good. 3/5 maybe

Hybrid theory is 5/5

Yeah, I really dont like New Divide at all; just sounds liek MTM 2.

But Meteora is my fave LP album, with Hybrid Theory right behind it (I also like Reanimation)

Okay, new discussion topic: Rank the albums.  I'm gonna include the Hybrid Theory EP, if only because I feel it encompasses a unique sound that allows it to be a separate entity in the LP discography.

1. Meteora - I thought this album was the most "interesting," and very experimental compared to HT's moshfest.
2. Hybrid Theory EP - Same as Meteora, this album strikes me as the most "different" of the early era.
3. Hybrid Theory - Let's face it; most of us wouldn't be fans of LP if it weren't for this album.  The songs are very solid, well-constructed, and in many cases quite catchy.
4. Reanimation - This is definitely the less desirable half.  The remixes are cool, but honestly, they could never have stood alone without the release of HT.
5. Minutes to Midnight - It's pretty bad, but there are a couple of nice songs, like What I've Done and No More Sorrow.
6. Collision Course - The worst thing LP could ever have done was mash-ups with Jay-Z, simple as that.  That's not a comment about either artist; they just don't jive well.

My ranking:

1. Meteora
2. Hybrid Theory
3. Hybrid Theory EP
4. Reanimation
5. Minutes To Midnight
6. Collision Course

Well, the reason Meteora is over Hybrid Theory is that Meteora is a BIT more varied imo.
They're both really awesome, but Meteora has 2 of my favorite LP tracks. (Breaking the habit and figure 09)

Back when I was in 7th-9th grade I remember being a hardcore LP fan and listened to Meteora/Hybrid Theory almost every day. Then Minutes to Midnight hit the stores and I rocked out with "No More Sorrow" and "Given Up", but then I heard Valentine's Day and In Pieces and I was dissappointed. First time a band I liked dissappointed me. I started to like it less and less as time went by and I got into real metal (I still dig one song of them, however... "Easier to Run"), and I started to dislike them when "New Divide" came out. I was like "Really? Two years and the only thing that they could pull off was "What I've Done, Part II"? Last thing I heard from them was "Not Alone" which was a really good ballad and I actually liked it. I know that now they just won't come back to their HT-era, but I don't care much from them anymore :lol

Mine is a similar story.  From the beginning of 7th till halfway through 9th grade LP was the band, until I discovered Sevendust, which was a band I was obsessed with like no band before it or since (seriously that shit was unhealthy).  I eventually stopped listening to Sevendust and in 11th grade was getting totally stoked about Minutes to Midnight until I heard it and it was downright awful.  I literally hated every single track, and my hatred of the album increased with every new song.  Just like you, Linkin Park was the first band that I ever felt let me down.  And as with you, my favorite song has been and always will be Easier to Run.  I've got some hope that the new album will at least be better than Minutes to Midnight, but honestly I wish they'd at least get back to that pseudo-experimental metal thing they were trying with Meteora; it was halfway between Hybrid Theory and Minutes to Midnight: the perfect balance of old and new sounds.

Look for the missing letters in the poem.  The spell out "The Catalyst," which is either the name of the new album or the new single.

This exactly.

Meteora is my favorite LP album, and Hybrid Theory is also pretty awesome. But MTM...ugh. Ever since I heard New Divide, I lost a little hope, since it sounds like MTM2, which I definately do not want. I maintain a sliver of hope for the other songs though.
