Editorial Review: Product Description: No Description Available Media Type: CD Artist: LINKIN PARK Title: HYBRID THEORY Street Release Date: 10/24/2000 Genre: ROCK/POP Amazon.com: It may be too cynical to assume Hybrid Theory changed its name to Linkin Park in order to appear right next to Limp Bizkit in your local record bin. But rock-rap workouts like "One Step Closer" and "Papercut" do make Linkin Park a comfortable fit with Fred Durst and his ilk. Producer Don Gilmore (Pearl Jam, Lit, Eve 6) and twin vocal threats Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda serve up industrial-strength rap and rock melodicism with equal aplomb on this woulda-been-self-titled debut effort. "Points of Authority" aims to sound like Trent Reznor wanking it up with Lars and company, whereas guitarist Brad Delson's Edge-y harmonics help "In the End" and "Pushing Me Away" evoke a dark romanticism akin to A Perfect Circle. Curiously, the band gets by with no bass player, while sample-happy DJ Joseph Hahn's step into the spotlight on the instrumental "Cure for the Itch" suggests a potential for eclecticism that could help Linkin Park outlive its seemingly transient genre. --Bill Forman Customer Reviews

 Rating:  - well i was out a toilet paperhad nothing else! they deserved one star for the hard to reach places.....listen to pantera Rating:  - Refreshing Blend of Rap and MetalI am not among the many people that pretend to be cool and hate the popular bands. I just listen to whatever sounds good in my opinion. Linkin Park is a band that I love and can't get enough of. Hybrid Theory offers a great mix of rap and metal that gives a great harmonic sound. Unlike other bands that have mixed rap and metal(Limp Bizkit), this music is not about stupid things like nookie. The songs generally talk about our complicated lives that we all live every day. Songs like "I'm about to Break" focus on the fact that life is hard. Most of their songs focus on that. I will go as far as saying that there is not one bad song on here. If you are the type of person that feels stressed out a lot, this is the CD for ... Read More: Rating: - Undeniably catchySo nearly eight years after its release, Hybrid Theory is still going strong. It is true that some of the lyrics may seem immature or generic, a good example being 'One Step Closer.' This album was directed towards teenagers so we'll ignore that flaw. But, the really special thing about this album is that you can listen to the whole thing without having to skip any song. Each song is catchy and listenable and this is one of the only albums I know that I don't have to skip any songs. Now I am a big LP fan. A breakdown of all the songs: Papercut: 10/10. Love the rhythm of this song. It talks about someone who is paranoid. Excellent start for the album. One Step Closer: 7/10. Bad choice for the second song. It's listenable, ... Read More: Rating: - a great CD with the dumbest first single!"One Step Closer" was a bad choice for a 1st single, artistically speaking; it sounded (and still sounds, IMO) generic as heck, to put it simply. I didn't feel a great desire to own this CD until I heard "Crawling" for the first time on the radio. After school I went to my local CD store and got it. Just about every song on this CD is great except for the one song. The CD opens with a harrowing melody and blasts off from there (then takes a very short break...). Very dramatic and melodic stuff, with interesting sonic touches.
