Why /mu/ hates Linkin Park?, even the elders love it.

They're dumb and have zero taste in music.

Also I'm surprised you didn't bring up John Kasich.

ITS LIKE A

It's lame, generic, commercial, and extremely accessible. As compared to your favorite underground black metal or Goth band where only their specific little edgy teen subculture will "get" it.

There's only two types of people who listened to Linkin Park.


Numetal kids who got into their debut album.

Normie radio rockers who got into any of their other albums.


I've never seen any other metal/hard rock group go so soft so fast in just the span of one album, other than possibly Babymetal.

Smash Mouth

wut

What about them?

Was their debut album some heavy metal type alt rock?


but speaking of 90s alt rock, No Doubt ditched their ska punk as soon as they went mainstream even if they had a good chunk of early albums.

I've seen that video but I don't really understand why the guy was surprised he liked Linkin Park. Saying an adult shouldn't like Linkin Park because only 15 year olds can relate to the lyrics is like saying a white person can't like to pimp a butterfly because they can't relate to the lyrics

Ska punk. It took all of one album for them to turn into the Wiggles.

Not that I necessarily agree with the other anon about Smash Mouth being heavy but

As I said, buttrock is exactly what it is. Designed to be as completely generic and appealing to as many normalfags as possible.

>the Wiggles

Christ why did I laugh so hard at that

>>68283563
oh wow yeah this would the type of song that would labelled as Less Than Jake during the Kazaa/Limewire days.

They went full pop even faster than No Doubt after all.

WHIRLWIND INSIDE OF MA HEAD

Their debut album was somewhat off the beaten path, but yeah even by numetal standards it was fairly seen as watered down.

damn this is good
