Customer Reviews Linkin Park/Heavy Metal or Hard Rock? Honestly take a listen to Linkin Park or Hawthorn Heights granted they have hard driving beats and heavy gutar riffs and some "Screaming" but the also use alot of Electronica in their music. Rascal Flatts is closer to "Real" Hard or Metal then the likes of Linkin Park or Hawthorn Heights. The fact every song they do has the very same theme as the last "No One Understands Me" or "Lifes not fair" and sometimes "You did me wrong I hate you" these guys have nothing original or socialy conscience to say outside their own little box. They sound less like the origins of Heavy Metal such as "AC/DC" or "Iron Maden" or Even "Motely crue" but more like crying teenagers moaning over rock beats and calling it Heavy Metal. Todys music world is pressed for sucess before the age of 25, without real life expereince to write lyrics and vocal maturity these band fall flat of the true greatness they have the potential to own. Without that "Life Experience" and "Edge" this may as well be the next effort of the Backstreet Boys going rock. Don't Mistake Me Linkin Park rules. Don't mistake me. While all the additional songs are great, is it really worth [the money]? What the hell?!?! I bought it for [less](okay, I bought it in Asia). 5 extra tracks (Papercut live, Points of Authority live, A Place for My Head Live, My December, and High Voltage) may be worth an additional [amount] for the rich hard-core Linkin Park fan, but downloading it off the net would be a lot cheaper. My December is somewhat like a very slow In the End, but gets tedious if you listen to it everyday. High Voltage is the black sheep of the album, totally unrock like, but very catchy and fast pace. The live tracks are basiclly distorted versions of the original that is either annoying or else refreashing. Overall, this is an excellent album that is way over-priced. Money Great CD I love the 2 xtra tracks but is it really worth about $50 for 2 track I mean seriously go buy the My December single for $7. .
