Album Info

  • Release Date: July 23, 2012
  • Label: Warner

Theoretically, with brostep and aggressive US stadium dance tracing a line of descent back to the dark days of new metal, this should be a prime moment for Linkin Park to seize their respect-dues. Theory, though, runs in horror from this radio-friendly videogame metal, dragged down by the horrifically overwrought vocals and clunky raps. “Check the rep, yeah, you know mine well”. Indeed.
