    yeah LP's strongest identity is their non swearing lyrics.....
    i dont think i would stay a fan if they would use swearing in their lyrics because its thats very low and cheap.....
    then you better listen to LB and papa roach.....
    got nothing against them but come on....what a huge diffrence...

    "X-Ecutioner Style"
    (feat. Black Thought)

    From the top
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up when I’m talking to you
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    I’m about to br—
    Wasn’t that fun?
    Let’s try something else

    Forty-five calibre killer from out of the filler
    Definitely going to show y’all brothers how you not a gorilla
    Smooth talking, fully automatic weapon concealer
    Taste thriller, break thriller
    Let’s hit ’em with the bounce filler
    Filthy stinking, standing on solid ground
    And still be sinking, submerging in the parks
    Still be linking, plucked beef when it starts
    To f**k your thinking, it’s not a mirage
    I’m in the motherf**king track, yo, from out the garage
    With an if, you to duck, but it’s hard to dodge
    In the back of the spine where my dawgs, they lie
    Going to flip it straight up, ripping apart your squad
    X-ecutioner style, cuts and blends like a syringe
    Hanging you from each of your limbs
    See me coming through the party hard without no bodyguard
    Smoking something, stomping on each of you Tims
    I’m the B-to-the-L, the A, the C, King
    And when it comes to planning
    The thought to keep thinking, man

    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up
    Shut up ^_^

    high voltage had swearing

    "High Voltage"

    Just do something to tell you who I am, ya know?

    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

    I've been taking into crates ever since I was livin in space
    Before the ratrace, before monkeys had human traits
    Mastered numerology and bigbang theology
    Performed lobotomies with telekinetic psychology
    Invented the mic so I could start blessin it
    And chincheckin kids to make my point like an impressionist
    Many men have tried to shake us
    But I twist mic cords to double helixes and show them what I'm made of
    I buckle knees like leg braces
    Cast the spell of instrumental-ness and all of the emcees that hate us
    So try on, leave you without a shoulder to cry on
    From now to infinity let icons be bygones
    I fire bomb ghostly notes haunt this
    I've tried threats but moved on to a promise
    I stomp #### with or without an accomplis
    (Mixed media)
    The stamp of approval is on this

    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out

    Akira, put a kink in the backbones of clones with microphones
    Never satisfy my rhyme jones
    Sprayin bright day over what you might say
    Blood type krylon
    Technicolor type A
    On highways right with road rage I'm patient to win
    The cage and the tin to bounce all around
    In surround sound devouring the scene
    Subliminal gangrene paintings
    Overall the same things sing songs karaoke copy :phoenix:
    Break bones verbally with sticks and stone tactics
    Fourth dimension, combat convention
    Write rhymes at ease while the tracks stand at attention (Attention)
    Meant to put you away with the pencil
    Pistol, official, 16 line rhyme missile
    While you risk it all, I pick out of your flaws
    Spin, blah blah blah blah
    You can say you saw

    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock
    Because nobody wants it to stop, check it out
    It's high voltage you cant shake the shock

    AFAIK, there's so much you can say before getting a sticker. One word won't get one.


    And, I think the PA stickers are optional, just something almost all record companies slap on

    I really like the fact that LP doesn't curse because unlike other artists that I listen to, I dont have to worry about listening to them in the car with my family or something. I always know that they're a clean band in their music. I might curse, but I think that if they can express their music without needing to curse then they should keep it that way. They dont need to curse to get fans.

    :angry: swearing makes songs have no meaning (all dissing and other hate music) and then linkin park will be like 50 cent, they may get fans but won't get creditablity, they'd be talentless ####. But some swearing is alright, ass, s###, hell,

    I don't swearing is necessary in music and I respect the fact that LP tries to express themselves in a more constructive way. I think it's a lot more difficult to express anger without swearing and it shows the effort they exert in order to be credible musicians.

    Tool is more constructive than Linkin Park, and they still cuss every now and then.

    That's why I love Tool, yo. The songs aren't just little 4 minute things. They take time to tell a story and make them sound beautiful.


    But that's an different topic. :shifty:

    I know for a fact that a lot of my friends like LP because of their "meaningful screaming" without cussing. It saves alot of trouble from the parents and they would definately lose some fans.

    I think s/he meant the fact that Chester screams his lungs out in anger but never swears.

    Yea thats what I meant. The screaming is actually about the frustrations of life instead of ripping out a bunch of meaningless cuss words just for the sake of it.
