I don't love Reanimation like I used to, but I still say it's completely unmatched among remix albums. It's been 22 years, and still nothing has come close
Slightly off topic, but watch the first 10-20 seconds. Posting because the first time I heard Two Faced I immediately thought of Paramore's Caught In The Middle, and how similarly the same phrase was sung. Seems to be a trend.
I actually can spot some sort of link between Reanimation and A Thousand Suns, especially with their experimental electronic side of both albums.
I think the quasi-concept album way in which the sequencing plays out, and the sheer variety of sounds among the tracks, are things both albums have in common as well. Reanimation had an overture-style intro and some recurring motifs, and "Pts.Of.Athrty", "FRGT/10" and "My<DSMBR" are examples of three wildly-different songs all together on the one album. In this light, A Thousand Suns is a Reanimation successor, except, this time, Linkin Park accomplished it with basically no outside help.
For me it's Krwling, and I don't even like the original song that much Also, I fucking hate trying to remember how to spell the album's track titles
I agree, the live version is even better. The way the bridge builds into the final chorus, chills guaranteed.
