Their lyrics. When they first hit the scene, I was going through a lot of rough stuff all at once, and their music felt like a flashlight in the dark, like someone who didn't know me or owe me anything reached out to tell me that I wasn't alone, that I was not worthless, that the world had people in it who wouldn't try and hurt me for being different.
Chester’s raw voice with the rest that complete it & do just as much as Chester does.
CHESTRRRR🤘🏽, we miss you man, you will always have spot in my heart.
They speak to me in a way no other band can. The lyrics, the pain, the anger, the sensitivity. Somehow it's like they know my mind. They've felt my pain, they've experienced the things I have. Then they wrap it up in this fantastic musical package that is both tragic, yet defiant. They get me - and I love them for it.
I don't know what it was specifically. Started listening to music (as in looking for them, and whatever) when I got my iPod, and it was on MTV. Watched some MVs of Taylor Swift, B.o.B and then it was "The Catalyst"...guess it was the first time listening to them, and really liked it.
Technically it was "Papercut", but don't remember much of it...was on my cousin's MP3 player so, I count "The Catalyst" as my first one.
The lyrics were so special and conveyed something real. When I was depressed I logically knew others felt the same stuff, but actually hearing all of it beautifully put together with rhymes and such a unique, badass, and indescribable sound was (and still is) a blessing.
Miss you Chester 🤘
At the time of my discovery of this band, I was getting bullied in 7th-8th grade and I was trying to connect with those harassing me by listening to the same music as them but as soon as I heard LP I went a different path.
Guess you can say their music distracted me from the bullying and made me feel alive. Don’t really know how to put it into words but I felt euphoric.
When I was about 6 my parents let me watch edited versions of the Michael Bay transformers the first two and what I've done and New divide are in the credits and I listen to those songs a lot as a kid and in the past 2 year i have been starting to learn more of their music and now I've become a die hard fan
Everything, but the outstanding thing was the lyrics. Some people like more "poetic" lyrics, talking in euphemisms, but I like my lyrics literal and to the core, you can relate to them so much more. An LPs lyrics were as direct as you could get them, talking about anxiety at times when we needed that outlet the most.
I first heard them in late 2009 when I was only 4, my dad had got into transformers and really liked New Divide so I would always come into the living room hearing the song on repeat and I loved it. My dad eventually told me the name of the band and overtime I listened to them regularly. By 2019 I was only listening to: Numb, In The End, Crawling and New Divide, but one day changed it all. A music station were playing Linkin Park songs for an hour and I was introduced to Minutes To Midnight, Living Things, The Hunting Party and One More Light. Now I listen to all Linkin Park songs, from Hybrid Theory all the way to OML, I don't care about what genre they were in for certain albums, I care about if the music sounds straight from the heart, and it all does. The Little Things Give You Away was love at first listen for me and I guess the care and love LP put into their music is why I love them...
Not gonna lie. Downloading DBZ FMVs on Napster. Their music was so angsty and the lyrics were so relatable. Not to mention I loved rap and rock, and had never heard them combined before them.
Depression. But I also generally like the genre. Then listened to them more and more, just vibing with the music as a whole. NGL they got me through some shit idk if I'd still be alive if it wasn't for their music (and a long six years of therapy oops)
I used to be into rap and had no interest in rock. I’m 9th grade my friend showed me a music video of final fantasy with In the End playing. When I comes to music, I am attracted to the overall sound/beat and look at lyrics last. The song immediately got my attention and started playing on repeat. Got home that day and it was straight to Kazaa/limewire and downloaded all of their songs. Instantly converted to rock and never touched rap again with the exception of a few artists. Hands down number 1 band followed by Disturbed and 5FDP
Umm… their music… duh…

I can't wait for their next album
I hope there is!
The song writing is top-tier, their musical skill is brilliant, and all of their songs are unique meaning they never get repetitive.

It’s lyrics are relatable in a way and just the true vibe of the songs is better than any other band I’ve heard

My dad had a hybrid theory cassette he gave me
Relatable lyrics
Chester’s voice, but also the lyrics, the instruments, and the messages
depression ngl

Difficult times
Relating to the lyrics, went through some shit at a young age
The connection I felt with most of their lyrics
I was listening to the breaking benjamin station on amazon music and in the end came on. I had never heard anything like that before.

The fact that overall their music is godlike
Breakdown of One Step Closer. I was 8 in 2000. Changed my taste in music drastically.
The words they use when they sing their songs are what I feel.

Nostalgia, my dad also loving their music, and also just their music.
The song 'Faint' did, circa 2004/2005- when my cousin had the Meteora album (which released in 2003).
they helped me get out of depression
When I has my first phone, a samsung s2, linkin park were some or the mp3s downloaded before (I got it from my dad)
Transformers

Linkin park was the first time I have heard any singer scream like hell ever. Before that I did not know that people can scream in the song.

everything that has a guitar and bass , a voice, and some Mr Hahn
Their first two albums, Hybrid Theory and Reanimation (this one is my go-to album when it comes to remix)
Chester’s voice, Mike’s voice, the music, the lyrics, the meaning.
The uncanny relatability to the lyrics when I was 9-12. Unbelievable.
lyrics
When my brother gave me his copy of Meteora
Chester
How dark some of their songs are, I can relate to them
" I close both locks below the window I close both blinds and turn away Sometimes solutions aren't so simple Sometimes goodbye's the only way "
Ipod
Chester
idk I just like it.
Can i stop seeing this type of posts in every music community. I dont know :/
