i got to say i am a little disappointed in LP. They said that they want to go for a more mature sound.... i'm afraid they are going to turn into cold play. Not one song on OTS really got my blood moving.

Maybe Chester cant scream like he could 5 years ago. they cancel the concert in Cincinnati because Chester wasn’t up to it. (just a theory)

I just hope the next album is explosive or it could be their downfall

People hate the new LP, because they want another Hybrid Theory. People hate the new Green Day, because they want another Dookie. People hate the new Metallica, because they want another Black album. People hate the new Pearl Jam, because they want another Ten. People hate the new Radiohead, because they want another Pablo Honey, and the same complaint goes on and on. If you don't like their new stuff, you can always listen to their old albums.

How exactly did they "sell out"?  Try an original constructive criticism if you dont like it instead of what lazy people say as a cop out.  Seriously, every fan or critic of a band's music uses "sell out" as a reason to not like it and it is way overused.  I think everyone has their own context when using this and I'd like to read yours.  Thanks.

There is a point  of what you are saying.

I needed to listen the album several times before i loved it, its hard to get used to it especially after Hybrid Theory and Meteora but the full songs like Waiting for the End, The Catalyst, Iredecsent, ect.... are very good  and i love to listen them and sometimes(depend on my mood) even more than the older stuff.

Now for the negative part, its hard to critisize them because they can be very stubborn, and don't give a fuck about constructive critism. What was most frusstrating is: when you see the track list you think there are actually 15 songs, but a great part of it its just noises. The noises are for the theatratical part of the album, but in my opinion the should not replace any song for noises, if they want to give a message, fine, but its realy upset that you get less "full songs" from any other album. Thy made me feel that they have become lazy and make less songs than in  the past. I hope the next album will have the same abount of songs(not tracks) just like the first 3 albums.
