>Don't understand how anyone could actually consider them a talented band.

Nobody ever did except for the 13-year olds and white trash too dumb and/or too young to know better. They've always been one the biggest whipping boy jokes in a genre which was in itself a whipping boy joke.

I was speaking on the first two albums that everyone is now constantly referring to after Chester's death.

>a band member dying is literally the best thing to ever happen to them.

>They relied on being catchy like Katy Perry & Taylor Swift
There's nothing wrong with being catchy. I never considered them nu-metal either. They were a good band for when I was lonely in elementary in middle school and I think that's a valid niche to fill.

Shinoda and Hahn should have done more solo stuff together.

music doesnt have to be complex to be good
their first 2 albums are objectively GOAT nu-metal and they hold up 15+ years later
dont like their other albums because i didnt like the musical direction they took though

>There's nothing wrong with being catchy

Correct, although there is also nothing wrong for criticizing a band for relying on being catchy to carry their songs due to the fact they can't provide talent.
