Hybrid Theory is an absolute masterpiece that I think anyone who has good taste in music can enjoy. Track by Track Rating and Review: Papercut - 7/1. Papercut starts Hybrid Theory with a very unique style and sound. This track is a good opener because it represents very well what the rest of the album is about. The song is heavy, with catchy verses and a powerful chorus. One Step Closer - 7/1.įor me this song is quite different from papercut.
This song is faster and has a more heavier section before the final chorus. This song is crafted very well, but I think if the song had been longer it would have improved it slightly. Linkin Park performed the album in it's entirety for the first time at the Download Festival on June 14, 2014.0 - For me this is where the album really starts to kick off. Hybrid Theory has sold 27 million copies worldwide, which makes it the best selling debut album of the 21st century. It was ranked #11 on Billboard's Hot 200 Albums of the Decade.A special edition of Hybrid Theory was released March 11, 2002, a year and a half after it's original pressing. The album is listed in the book 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die. At the 2002 Grammy Awards, Hybrid Theory was nominated for Best Rock Album. Although "Runaway", "Points of Authority", and "My December" from the special edition bonus disc album were not released as singles, they were minor hits on alternative rock radio stations thanks to the success of all of the band's singles and the album. While "In the End" was the most successful of the four, all of the singles in the album remain some of the band's most successful songs to date. Four singles were released from the album: "One Step Closer", "Crawling", "Paper cut", and "In the End", all of them being responsible for launching Linkin Park into mainstream popularity. Hybrid Theory takes it's title from the previous name of the band as well as the concept of music theory and combining different styles.
Recorded at NRG Recordings in North Hollywood, California, and produced by Don Gilmore, the album's lyrical themes deal with problems lead vocalist Chester Bennington experienced during his adolescence, including drug abuse and the constant fighting and divorce of his parents.
