Music reviews of Meteora

Music Review: Pure Awesome!
Rating: 5 Stars

Foreword - Great song to start this album, though its only instrumental, it has a great melody. Violins are used to make this. Then it gets more technoish towards the middle of the song. They did a good job putting this song together. I'll give this song a 4/5

Don't Stay - Great song, very emotional, this is one of the "Metal" tracks on the CD, this is actually one of my favorite ones. Love the chours in this "Don't stay, forget our memorys, forget our possibilities, what you were changing me into, just give me myself back and don't stay, forget our memorys, forget our possibilities, take all your faithlessness with you, give me myself back and don't stay." I'll give this song a 4.5/5

Somewhere I Belong - Of course, you've all heard it before, but I actually find it to be a let down to this album... Dunno why, maybe I've heard it too much or something, Chesters voice isn't that good in this song either. I dunno, but I'd give it a 2.5/5

Lying From You - Pretty weird intro, sounds like an intro to a rap song, but then all of a sudden the guitars and drums come on and it gets heavy. Then it goes into Mike w/ his raps and Chester w/ his great vocals. I also love the beat of this song. The chorus goes "And now you really think this person is me, and I'm trying to bend the truth, but the more I push the more I'm pulled in the wake, because I'm lying away from you, no, no turning back now, I wanna be pushed aside, so let me go, no, no turning back now, let me take back my life, I'd reather be all alone, no turning back now, anywhere on my own, cuz I can say, no, no turning back now, the very worst part of you is me." I really like how they collaberate on this track 4/5

Hit The Floor - Starts off slow, like most of the songs, but then gets into the heavy guitar/drums. Then here comes Mike again w/ his fast rhyming and you can hear the work of Mr Hahn(SP?). I dunno, but this is one of my least favorite song on this album... I'd give it a 2/5

Easier to Run - This is one the mellow track on the album, love the beginning of this. Also, like Crawling on the other album, this song goes strait into the chorus which goes "Its easier to run, replacing this pain with someing wrong, its so much easier to go, than to face all this pain all alone" I love the lyrics of this song, all the way through Chesters voice... Dunno, but I love his voice... and Mikes Raps aren't as heavy in this. But this is probley my favorite track on this album thats why it gets a 5/5

Faint - THE BEGINNNING FRIGGIN ROCKS! Nice Techno beat then the Gutiars/Drums put on a good melody, showing what Linkin Park can really do! Then Mike doing his thing w/ this track too. Very catchy tune and LOVE the chorus! "I can't feel, the way I did before! don't turn your back on me! I won't be ignored! Time won't tell, this damage any more! Don't turn your back on me! I won't be ignored!" Great song, 4.5/5

Figure.09 - You can tell this is going to be a good song right from the start! The heavy instruments are at it again! But yet again, Mike starts the song, LoL, oh well. But the Chorus again is great "And now, you become a part of me, you'll always be right here, you become a part of me, you'll always be my fear, I can't seperate, myself from all I've done, giving up a part of me, I've let myself become you" but, I only give this song a 3/5

Breaking The Habit - Again, love the beginnin of this song w/ its guitar, and Chester sings this song! Which is great! This is one of my favorite songs, not heavy, but melodic, love these lyrics! "I don't know whats worth fighting for, or why I have to scream, I don't know why I instagate, and say what I don't mean, I don't know how I got this way, I know its not alright, so I'm breaking the habit, I'm breaking the habit, tonight" the instruments, how they're put together, kicks azz! I dunno, but this gets a 5/5

From the inside - Heavy right from the start (As you can tell, this album is a lot heavier from their last) But then it gets quiet, the first line is "I don't know who to trust" which can relate to lots of people, the chorus goes "Take everything from the inside, and throw it all away, because I sware for the last time, I won't trust myself with you" this album gets better and better, I love how he screams in this song! (Head banging right now) Great from start to finish! 5/5

Nobody's Listening - Rap, Rap, Rap... if you've heard High Voltage by them, thats what its like... I really don't like this song, but though, I do like the lyrics without the music... eh.. the music ruins it... 2/5

Session - Slow and quiet at first, then the drums start and it gets a little heavier... and then Mr Hahn's part comes into play... and it stays like that through the whole song, no words, just scratching, its an okay song, but could've been replaced w/ a better song 3/5

Numb - The final song and I can't STRESS enough on how great this song is! I love the beginning, great melody! Hell, I'll just give you all the lyrics to this song!

Tired of what you want me to be
Feeling so faithless, lost under the surface
Don't know what you're expecting of me
Put under the pressure of walking in your shoes
(Caught in the undertoe, just caught in the undertoe)
Every step that I take is another mistake to you
(Caught in the undertoe, just caught in the undertoe)
I've become so wrong, I can't feel you there
Become so numb, so much more aware
I'm becomeing this, all I want to do
Is be more like me, and be less like you

and thats where I'm going to stop for that song, let you listen to the rest, don't want to ruin it, but I'd give this song 6/5

The whole album is great, you gotta get this album!

Overall raiting: 5/5
