LINKIN PARK Reassure You Their New Album Doesn't Sound Like MESHUGGAH or BOTCH

The band let you know what their new record sounds like.

The band let you know what their new record sounds like.

You know, I didn't think the most recent new Linkin Park song was bad at all. No, I'm not exactly going to put it on myself but I wouldn't feel extreme sympathy for my ears if it were on at a public place I was at like a restroom or something.

Linkin Park have a certain sound, and they have built a career off that sound, so you can't really blame them. And they get it too. Frontman Mike Shinoda recently told Rolling Stone:

“We didn’t make a Botch record. We didn’t make a Meshuggah record. We made a really loud and aggressive Linkin Park record, maybe the loudest we’ve made.”

A bunch of sites are making a big deal out of Shinoda name dropping Botch and Meshuggah but really, it's not that big of a deal, as my buddy Sgt. D notes on Stuff You Will Hate: "[A] 30-something guy from Southern California who plays in a heavy alternative band listens to several popular hardcore/metal bands that have been around for like 25 years?? No way!" Way!
