    Maybe minus Over Again and Promises 

    What?? There were a few good tunes on Post Traumatic actually, maybe. Running From My Shadow had potential but the grandson feature is kind of meh. I like Place To Start kind of because it's weird and mellow.

    I get what you say, as you can see, I gave a lot of “good but not great” ratings, because I feel the same way 

     

    Yeah, One More Light is a much better record than Post Traumatic IMO. Even if One More Light isn't my absolute favorite, it still holds a special place in my heart. 

  3. Was never a big fan of the album or era. One More Light was the last album that I somewhat enjoy, which I know is different since it's Linkin Park, not Mike Shinoda, but yeah. After Chester passed, the entire Linkin Park discography helped me, especially One More Light, actually, I had no problem listening to it after Chester passed like a lot of fans did, I used it to help me heal from the loss. I've never been a huge fan of the side projects of band members except for the earlier ones back in the day, but even then, Linkin Park is my actual shit that I love. I'm not knocking Post Traumatic by any of this, though. I know it massively helped a lot of fans heal, and I believe that the Post Traumatic era as a whole helped Mike heal, too. I don't know what I could say my favorite song off of the album is, as I kind of would give them all the same rating.

    Yeah definitely, the relevancy of the MTV Awards is due to the fact that it’s an MTV product lol. But yeah LP was never that kind of band. The problem with MTV and that kind of media is that they treat every artist the same, as if Katy Perry was bothered for her album to flop the same way LP was bothered by THP not hitting #1. I remember the title “new Linkin park flops and lands #3 on Billboard” 😂. I mean of course artists aim to success, I think there’s no artist that wishes his record to flop lol, but some of them see things differently and take artistry into consideration (like LP not making “some WID shit” working on ATS or not phoning in another LT in 2014). 
    As Mike said on that Fantano interview a few months ago, they always tried to balance between commercially appealing stuff and more experimental/risky stuff 


    Mike never meant ‘’some What I’ve Done shit’’ in that way. He meant he wasn’t on some What I’ve Done shit because he literally wrote that song in one night after friends of the band felt like Minutes To Midnight was missing one final piece. The band talked about how incredible is was of Mike to do that in the span of a night, they talk about it in the Making Of Minutes To Midnight, the version shown in theaters with the Webster Hall show back in 2007. They’ve also mentioned it elsewhere. He was saying he couldn’t go home and write a massive song in one night because he was talking about how some members of the band felt like they didn’t have a strong choice for the first single. Watch it again and you’ll see what he means. But all other points you’ve made, fully agreed.
