LPLive Members Favorite Album

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

Before the next album is released I want to know which is the absolute favorite album of the LPL members?

 

The recent discussion about ATS being the favorite album made me curious.

For me, it's A Thousand Suns, with LIVING THINGS and Minutes to Midnight close behind.

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

For me the best album is Hybrid Theory is the only one that I can listen from beggining to end

 

in the others album I constantly skip Hit The Floor, Nobody's Listening, What I've Done, In Between, All the interludes, The Messenger and about LT I don't even listen to it.

[MONDREUS240]

ATS for me. Not every song on the album is my favorite LP song, but as a whole it is their strongest album IMO. Listening to it the first time was just an overall great musical experience for me

[LinkinParkHotspur]

I used to think that "best album" and "favorite album" were basically the same thing. Most of the time, I would say that most people's favorite album is also the one they think is the best. I guess it's not always like that though, depending on how you determine what makes something "best".

 

Anyway, since this question is asking what my favorite album is and not what I think the best is...I'm going with...Minutes to Midnight. At this current point in time, MTM is probably my favorite album from them. And it may remain that way for a long time.

At the moment mine is LIVING THINGS.

[GlassCastles]

It's a pretty even split currently. Kind of surprising to me.

Best Album: A Thousand Suns. LP mastered a concept album start-to-finish, even with the interludes. Creatively a genius record. Lots of different sounding songs all combined into one awesome album.

 

Favorite Album: Meteora. Straight jams start to finish. In particular after that common phrase I use often, I mean that the samples the band has taken and compiled into these 3-4 minute rock songs are A+. From the intro to Lying From You to the samples on From The Inside, etc....the band got really creative with that stuff and mastered the creation of some truly awesome, rockin' songs. I think I read somewhere that there are 6-8 layers of guitars on some songs. Don Gilmore truly nailed it with his "kid in Cleveland" statement, meaning that a song still rocks the first or five millionth time you've heard it and that's the case on Meteora. From The Inside, Lying From You, Don't Stay, Figure.09, etc are all filthy to me.

[LinkinMark]

A Thousand Suns for me. Didn't even have to think about it. Everything that has come after that has left me slightly disappointed.

[RiderSSPU]

Living Things

[gorast]

ATS, definitely. That album is the best cover-to-cover album they've ever done, and I loved the direction it took.

[HybridThe0ry97]

Definitely MTM. As a recent article labeled it, it is their "secret classic."

[Andros]

Best album: A Thousand Suns, in every way. And Minutes To Midnight [12.50%] / A Thousand Suns [43.75%]...in your face Geki

Hybrid Theory. I know i'm old school bla bla. It's the only album i enjoy from beginning to end. ATS, the worst, no doubt.

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

Who the fuck choose LT? lol

Living Things

[GlassCastles]

Søuł and Bliss did. LT is actually my second favorite, seeing as I've come to tolerate BID and LGM. The only song I dislike on LT is UIB

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

lol I didn't read the rest of the thread lol

[spraypaintninkpens]

Meteora

[hahninator]

The only song I can handle on Living Things is Powerless, and that would have been the one outlying slow song on the record. Castle Of Glass is alright. Fuck the rest. Primo should have been on A Thousand Suns and not reworked into I'll Be Gone. I actually have listened to Primo probably 20-30x versus the 5-6x I've listened to Living Things.

[Twiilite]

Definitely A Thousand Suns. Minutes To Midnight in a distant second place.

[MONDREUS240]

Even though I chose ATS as my favorite, I do enjoy LT as well. I think LITE and COG are some of the best songs LP has produced. The three minute "firecracker" songs were a great contrast to the atmospheric tracks of ATS. It was a great direction to take at that time and if they continued to do more of an abstract type of music like ATS, then I think it would've been a little too much.

[JZLP-Benningstrong]

Holy crap, this is very surprising, HT is doing so bad.

[nikolajlaulp]

ATS for me, that album is just amazing! Defienetly the best music the band has crafted. I stille listen to it pretty much everyday. MTM is a close second. At the moment meteora is my least favorite, i still like it, but at the moment it bores me.

[FearOfTheDuck]

Hybrid Theory.

 

Every single song is A+ standard, it's just over half an hour of utterly perfect rock music. One of my top three favourite albums of all time, by any artist.

 

I love A Thousand Suns as a well, as a whole thing, but when many of the tracks are taken out and heard individually they don't stand up quite as well, and because HT is perfect both as a whole and based on any one song you pull out of it, it remains my favourite to this day.
