Album Review: Linkin Park - The Hunting Party

24 June 2014 | 1:02 pm | Ash Goldberg

Guilty All The Same and Until It’s Gone are accessible, unsurprising choices for singles, but, much like this record, neither holds a candle to anything on Hybrid Theory or Meteora.

More Linkin Park More Linkin Park

Linkin Park come full circle. Having digressed into electro-rock for their last two records, the Californians return to their nu metal roots. If you're expecting some of those light harmonies heard on Minutes To Midnight, do yourself a favour – lower the volume when you put this on. As Chester Bennington begins with screaming vocals on opener Keys To The Kingdom, Linkin Park proclaim their heavy-sound homecoming. Guilty All The Same and Until It's Gone are accessible, unsurprising choices for singles, but, much like this record, neither holds a candle to anything on Hybrid Theory or Meteora.
