Review title: Not original, NOT the LP that we knew....
Product review: The cutting edge heavy hybrid rock sound that uniquely defined Linkin Park only exists in a few songs such as "What I've Done" and "No More Sorrow". Most of the other songs are a re-hash of a more familiar rock style that is neither original nor cutting edge. The pace of the songs is slower, monotonous and disconnected compared to their previous albums.No matter what your political slant is the political preaching in this album's songs is disappointing, boring and unoriginal. Those types of songs should be left to Green Day, The Dixie Chicks and aging hippie folk music groups.I agree with many of the disappointed fans who felt that LP has essentially tried to re-invent itself with "Minutes to Midnight" by embracing more common musical themes, styles and lyrics. I found that the more I listened to this album the less I liked it which is contrary to what I felt about their previous albums.
