Linkin Park, and their ilk, are the boybands of metal. Their music is generic, poorly written, no-talent crap. Sorry to burst your bubble, but this is the bottom of the barrel, talent-wise. Maybe if you took more than two seconds to educate yourself before making ignorant blanket statements. Take the music of Cradle Of Filth and their intelligent, well written lyrics, or Vim Patior with their blisteringly fast, technical riffs, or how about Old Man's Child and their split second precision and talent, Peccatum and it's bizarre time signatures, Damaged and their amazing drumming or Rhapsody and their unrivaled ability to combine technical metal and comedy. You've heard of all of those bands, right? You've listened to them all, right?
Oh, no wait, that would require an ounce of experimentation or the slightest of an open mind. You come in here and bark off cheap insults such as we are "closed-minded" and you just sit down and get spoon-fed your corporate rock and roll.
Next time you feel the need to make ridiculous, ignorant statements, don't.

...I couldn't understand any of the lyrics in the songs I listened to there. Is this the same band you're talking about? Cause if so, I couldn't understand the constant screaming lyrics. TBH, it sounded like the guy was dying and making noise at the same time- with a drum and guitar there too. I dare call it "music" thanks to the drums in the back, but even thats stretching it.
I'm trying to find things right now on Vim Patior, maybe a sample, but I'm having a hard time.
And frankly, despite what you say, I do experiment in music a lot. I don't like music that is all screaming. I don't like music without at least a faint rythem. Otherwise, I'm pretty much open to anything.
But frankly, I've yet to hear a band mix hip hop, rock, and what I'd guess as industrial(I haven't listened to enough of that to confirm yes/no), and do it so well. Personally, I think their lyrics are great- and the fact you disagree is just fine. But when you go as to downright insult someone for their taste in music, thats going a bit far, don't you think?
I'm willing to try just about anything. But that doesn't mean that I'll like it- trying is trying. So why don't some of you get me some samples of this "Better Music" and we'll see, because frankly, I do at least know I've got the posterity to admit when something beat me.
Edit: ...oh, and towards that "Spoon Fed Rock & Roll"- I'm guessing you've never heard of Jimmy Lang, have you? Or maybe the legendary(okay, he's blues, but has a few rock songs) B.B. King? Also my love for(what little) the rock songs on the Cowboy Bebop soundtrack? Or maybe we should go into Crystal Method? Reactor? I may listen to MTV or VH1 once in a while, and even once in a while Fuse(a newly started thing which used to be good but is now going the way of MTV), but I am by no means spoon fed my music. When I hear something I like, I find out about it, and learn about anything like them. Hence why I love Linkin Park- I still haven't found anyone with their unique sound, rythem, or beautifully deep lyrics. Or anything as downright artistic as them, never settling for a "normal" video, but always going for something no one's ever thought of doing or done- introducing the much needed innovation into the mainstream?

Quaunaut please tell me your not serious? their lyrics were made on a school playground
lyrics taken from linkin park - points of authority
Forfeit the game / Before somebody else Takes you out of the frame / Puts your name to shame Cover up your face / You can’t run the race The pace is too fast / You just won't last
You love the way I look at you While taking pleasure in the awful things you put me through You take away if I give in My life My pride is broken
You like to think you’re never wrong (You live what you’ve learned) You have to act like you’re someone (You live what you’ve learned) You want someone to hurt like you (You live what you’ve learned) You want to share what you’ve been through (You live what you’ve learned)
this is why me and esuna mention linkin park are the boy band of metal, they appeal to teenagers who have a very limit vocab of thier own so they need to be really simple lyrics like this
"Cover up your face / You can’t run the race The pace is too fast / You just won't last"
to me that sounds very very corny ^^^ and this type of stuff runs throughout thier songs
but of course its all down to taste, if you love linkin pop then so be it, just dont brag about them as if they are the gift to music because if u said that linkin park themselves would probably laugh at you, i even read somewhere maybe iam wrong or the publication was wrong that linkin park had thier lyrics made for them (my guess probably by a 13 yr old with a hormonial problem)
