Legit question. If 9/11 never happened and everyone remained

all that shit started in the early 90s because people had the luxury of whining before the bottom fell out on enforced geopolitical stasis

if 9/11 never happened they would've been popular for even longer

also fuck you tripfag

If it wasn't for 9/11 they may have been even more successful. Not long after the attack some record labels pulled their artists from world tours for security reasons. I don't know if Linkin Park were directly affected but it would have had some effect on festivals around the world that they may have been going to.

You must have been born sometime around 1999. Anyone who can remember the 90s knows that popular culture was far more mopey and angsty then than it is now (fuck knows why though).

Linkin Park was far more in tone with the culture before 9/11 than it was after it. Even when Linkin Park was at their most popular they felt like somewhat of an anachronism

I doubt Linkin Park was suddenly about to make it any big on the international scene. Not even Germany has such bad taste.

first of all, linkin park were already huge before 9/11, as hybrid theory had been out for an entire year at that point

second, edgy nu-metal shit had been cool for nearly a decade before 9/11'

fucking underage shitters

These movies all came out in 1999
-Matrix
-Fight Club
-Dogma
-Boondock Saints
-The Sixth Sense

If anything, peak angst occurred right at the end of the 1990s'

Ah fuck; good point. I hadn't really considered that they were still unknown at that point.
Still though, OP is a faggot for linking their mediocre music to 9/11.

forgot American Beauty

>Hybrid Theory came out 200
>9/11 was 2001

Not to mention bands like Korn predate them

Post tits and feet or gtfo cunt

Things were edgier before 9/11 then people became easily offended.

Was Hybrid Theory the greatest album of the 3rd century? I think so

No, fuck YOU, newfag

9/11 triggered nostalgia based music.
