Hottest Record - Linkin Park - The Catalyst
Detractors will tell you that Linkin Park are just a nu-metal band. Some kind of manufactured group that walk the line between pop and rock efficiently. While it's true, Linkin Park have achieved great success with a focus and drive normally reserved for professional sports teams, they are also very good at what they do. Almost ten years of near perfect pop rock anthems have earnt them huge album sales but most importantly, huge loyalty. It is a dedication to their fans and a constant creative evolution that has helped keep this afloat. On that basis 'The Catalyst' is a triumphant return for this career band.

Even in their heavier older things they cared about the melody and how the lyrics weaved around it. In comparison, this song is a monotone chant.
Snooze.

Heard anything from lostprophets recently? A while back they said they were going to thrash things back up and try and find some middleground between their Shinobi Vs Dragon Ninja roots and their last effort's pithiness. Looking forward to it.
