    Maybe the band are just starved for creativity. They wrote 'Hybrid Theory' and the older stuff when they weren't successful, and they were encountering all kinds of hardships. But now, with the success comes a more comfortable and happy living, meaning they can't write lyrics that parallel to those of 'Hybrid Theory' and earlier material.

    And mine.

    EDIT: And the second part of Kevin's statement is not an opinion.

    Try to find a song (other than Session) that isn't depressive in some way or another, or takes advantage of teen angst.

    Yes it was an opinion, just like it's my opinion that's their best album...having opinions are what makes us unique, the tone that was used sounded like he was stating a fact, just like you. I respect your/his opinions, just think others can do the same.

    And you're right about that second part (in my opinion) but I challenge you to find a song on Hybrid Theory that's not guilty of what you just accused Meteora's songs of being (expect Cure For The Itch); I can find depressive lyrics and teen angst in all of HT's lyrics also, that's their lyrical style, in my opinion ;)

    Yeah, but they express it intelligently lyrics-wise on 'Hybrid Theory'. :lol:

    Good point, Minus.

    I'm trying to remember...which song has ignore in it?

    Is it OSC? It has ignorance...

    No, wait, it's By Myself. Right?

    OSC has ignorance, but ignorance has more syllables(sp?) than ignore, so it doesn't count.

    You can throw around "pain" as the only noun that describes so called teen angst and "ignore" as the only verb too but there's plenty of other words that prove my point about HT's lyrics. I agree with Mark that Meteora may not do as well a job of expressing those emotions as HT might but you can't go counting words to prove your opinion that Meteora was marketed just to satisfy teen angst emotions. I see nothing positive in Hybrid Theory's lyrics either except that the lyric expression may have worked better than Meteora; but they aren't at all that different word wise.

    I'm not saying it DOESN'T have these emotions, I was just proving Mark's point that it expresses them in a simpler and not-so-great way.

    It's my favorite linkin park record. I like it even more than Hybrid Theory. I think it sounds more evolved than Ht. It's sound turned out 100% perfect.

    It dosent matter what you say more ppl are going to say HT over Meteora because it sold more albums, even though Meteora is obviously slighty better than HT. Hybrid Theory is still excellent though.

    It's not OBVIOUSLY better than Hybrid Theory, as 1) Hybrid has sold more albums and 2) if it was OBVIOUSLY better, then we wouldn't be arguing about it.

    And 3) DON'T DOUBLE POST. OBVIOUSLY.

    I think that Meteora is the better record. For sure, the lyrics aren't as good as the HT ones, but it's easier to relate to them and the whole sound is nearly perfect.

    I didnt double post, I posted two different comments thank you very much.

    You know if Meteora was lp's first record it would have sold exactly the same as HT. HT onlyl sold more because it was released first.

    Forum rules clearly state that one is not allowed to post twice in a row, even if the comments are different.
