Whole Album is 🔥 From start to finish..

You should totally react to the whole album Hybrid Theory in order, it was one of those rare perfect albums, not a skip on it, and I listened to the whole thing front to back on the school bus when I was struggling the most. Then listen to Reanimation. Its a strings remake of Hybrid Theory. Its beautiful. Probably their most clubby stuff is their remix album with Jay-Z and then they just mashed their songs up with Jay songs.

Also in re your discussion about fighting your dark thoughts-- I'd suggest looking into what's called Shadow work. We all have light and dark in us, as Ren talks about. Its a balance inside us and the more we refuse to acknowledge and understand our dark, the harder it becomes to ignore or repress, the more chaotic power it has. It doesn't mean becoming a bad person or doing dark things, but just accepting that is a reality in all of us and it helps to understand your why and where it comes from, what feelings trigger it, what you may even be gaining from it beyond just the surface level.

This entire album plays as one song in my head honestly

“Papercut” is what anxiety feels like put into words.

There are ZERO skips on the Hybrid Theory album. Every song in it is 🔥🔥🔥

The entire first album has no skippable tracks. Banger. After. Banger. Beginning to end.

‘One Step Closer’ was their breakout track but honestly, their whole album ’Hybrid Theory’ is absolute fire from start to finish.

Imma need someone to get A Place for My Head on his react list. More specifically, the one Live from Texas!

This was my introduction to Linkin Park 26 years ago. I was 16, in high school and finally coming out of my shell. This shaped my late teens, and eventually my life. Now I'm 42, and still listening religiously to them. And yes, Emily is fucking awesome!

Linkin park on Spotify still has 55m monthly listeners, multiple songs with over a billion streams. No matter how much time has passed this is still one of the most influencial bands that shaped music. Both hybrid theory and meteora are massive albums and def need a full listen to each

Chester gave a voice to all our pain. To this day, every time I hear "Numb", it makes me want to cry.

I get what you are saying.  I'm 52 and I only recently discovered Linkin Park really for the first time.  Yeah, I heard their songs on the the radio but didn't really give it the time of day at the time.  When I finally started listening to their music, I found my voice.  All of the pain and hell that I had been dealing with my entire life was not my imagination as I had been told my entire life.  i was told that I was paranoid and making things up.  Chester allowed me to be say, "Yes, I feel those things." and now I can find people who can help me.  Chester saved me from the world.  I understand now.  Thank you Chester, RIP my man.  You gave a voice to the voiceless.

Can you imagine never hearing anything from this band before, putting this album on and this is track ONE? Like most people, you would never be the same again. This whole album is an experience, it's next level.

Mike Shinoda IS Linkin Park. He writes all the guitars and bass. He writes all the lyrics, and he also produces. On top of rapping and singing.

I can recite every album, start to finish, by heart. Hybrid theory is legendary

The live in Texas version of this, and the ad libs that they add to the song when they sing it live is hands-down the best version you’ve got to check it out at some point. The whole concert is amazing live in Texas.❤❤❤

This song transitions into Crawling and this video was done PERFECTLY with the surrealism effects around the room. And notice everything is done within this room. There is so much symbolism in this. Their creativity is absolutely INSANE!!!! I actually never watched this video. Gives a whole new respect to the song itself!! Man! Thank you for reacting to this one!! Holy!!

Chester said in an interview that this is his 2nd favorite LINKIN PARK song to perform! BREAKING THE HABIT was his favorite. ❤

One of THE greatest albums ever made in my opinion

Lifetime metal head here.  Never really listened to other genres aside from rock and metal.  When this album came out I had never heard anything like it.  It opened up my mind to listening to other types of music. Great album from beginning to end.
