Album Reviews
That's not all. Bennington is not going over old-girlfriend ground when he promises, "Your time is borrowed," in the hammering thrash of "No More Sorrow." And Mike Shinoda's state-of-disbelief rap "Hands Held High" comes with military-funeral drums and an "amen" chorus. This would be as much fun as a filibuster if Linkin Park did not pay equal attention to the punch and detail in the gritty stomp "Bleed It Out" and the balled-fist guilt of "What I've Done." "Shadow of the Day" is a too-literal echo of Joshua Tree-era U2, but most of Minutes is honed, metallic pop with a hip-hop stride and a wake-up kick. "What the fuck is wrong with me?" Bennington barks over the jingle bells and distortion in "Given Up." The answer all over this record: nothing that getting off your ass can't fix.

This album is GREAT! I think it has a little bit of old LP sound as well as new LP. They as individuals are maturing so their music should too. They will be around for a long time!! LINKIN PARK IS GREAT!

Ok...I'm really sick and tired of people complaining about this CD. Seriously if you were an actual fan or if you were waiting for this CD to come out then you would have known about the change up in there sound. Linkin Park advertised there new sound. It wasn't a secret. So if you're a true metal fan...then why did u go buy it? You don't deserve your money back. Nor do you deserve to bash how awful you may think it is. If Linkin Park had stayed the same to there original sound everyone would still be whining. They would say something like "This cd sounds exactly like the last one." Because no matter what happens to any new album someone will love it and someone will hate it. If you didn't like the M2M album then i don't care, but you don't go up on the internet and rant on how much it sucks. Thats just dumb. I personally loved the cd. Obviously it wasn't as good as Meteora or Hybrid Theory because it was new back then they were fresh. Bands just get old after awhile especially if they have the exact same sound as before. There are only a few exceptions to that. The album was really good. Not there best I admit.

This album is like none of their other albums. The sound, the tone, the rythm it's all different from their other albums. I like the fact this band is maturing in their sound and music. what I really like is, Linkin Park is looking at politics and the wars in Irag and such. "Hand Held High" talks about the war in Iraq and how that war is ruining the American citizens' lives, I love that song. I also love "No More Sorrow", "What I've Done", and "Given Up". Just the fact they're looking at how the world is right now and I just love the sound and the lyrics and everything.
Oh and to you LP haters, stop writing hate reviews on Lp, find somethin better to do. Oh and again I love the new sound. I can't till their next album comes out

F*** you LP haters! if u cant stand the lyrics and the screaming and stuff. go into ur little world of pretend pop music and bullshit. i personally love M2M. the songs are good. meteora was my favourite album but M2M was so different it rocked! the thing is though that chester hates pop music but a lot of their songs are pop hits which is weird.like shadow of the day was really popular but theres something about that song thats different. and given up is really good!! i have no idea why it didnt chart anywhere. and they barely play it on the radio even after they got a lot of feedback to play that song over and over again cuz all LP fans love it! but i do think they did tak a chance and do whatever they wanted to. my fav tracks are definitely what ive done, leave out all the rest, in pieces, no more sorrow, no roads left, etc.!!!
i hope ur new album surprises us totally aain! but next time try to do a lot more rock cuz pop is boring!

Linkin Park is a terrible band. With their annoying, whining, and pessimistic lyrics, they are just a shallow. I lose all respect for Rolling Stone. Popular music and good music are rarely the same. The ear-piercing, seizure-like cymbal crash in "Bleed It Out" to the laughable lyrics to "Shadow of a Day," Linkin Park cements themselves into a category of shallow, lameness that people unbelievably buy into. Linkin Park is done after this album and it shows.

Linkin Park sounds pretty good in this ablum. The music isb't as heavy as pass albums, but her it isn't a bad thing. The softer tone of this album is seen through tracks like "In Between" and "Shadows Of the Day" which aren't bad at all. Not worry Linkin Park fans they still brought over that metal feel. "Given Up" is a amazing track with plenty of screaming from chester. "Bleeding Out" and the political "Hands Held High" gives you the Hip Hop from Mike Shinoda. One of my favorites "in Peices" and "What I've Done" are tracks with show the change in the band and their some what new sound. 4 stars for M2M.
