Something unsettling about this that I can't place https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VhAgQMqVxiE The overdone drum track and piano flourishments? The weirdly clean mix? It sounds like something they'd put in the english dub of an old anime.

FilthyImp posted:In 2000, someone with an Eminem poster on their wall watched that MTV video at 2am where Aerosmith and RunDMC teamed up for Walk this Way. And they were all like "yeah those sick guitar riffs and heavy drums actually make this "raphop" thing good!" So they found guys who were terrible rock metal musicians and were worse rappers than Beck and told them "Look. Just wear some baggy pants, and flip your cap backwards. Tell everyone you were from The Streets and you lived Under a trailer home and the educational system and the jobs market have totally failed YOU, dispossessed angry white guy, and your anger is fueling this new cool thing that is totally not ICP". i wish i cared about anything as much as how much you care about rap metal and how it sucks

Nu-metal was literally a bunch of idiots who heard Epic by Faith No More (the worst song by the best band) and burned that poo poo into the ground.

I feel like Eminem's unusual presence on some alternative Rock stations at the time were a much bigger impact on creating nu metal. My Name Is and the Real Slim Shady both aired pretty regularly I assume because he was a white guy. Oh yeah, Everlast and occasionally House of Pain too.

Most people seem to forget DJ Lethal of Limp Bizkit was also in House of Pain. Between HoP and acts like the Beastie Boys playing with live bands and relying less on samples I think nu-metal was natural progression. In the spirit of the thread and House of Pain: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qA1nGPM9yHA

The Kins posted:IT'S BEEN A WHILE SINCE I COULD... HURGLE GURGLE They gave Guitar Hero a working mix of Death Magnetic, and then on the album they (they likely being the producer Rick Rubin) essentially hard-locked the album's volume to a certain level. http://recordinghacks.com/2008/12/20/metallica-wins-the-loudness-wars/ The result is a record that is actually physically irritating to listen to... Unless you have the mix from the video game, which is all over YouTube. This is probably the one with the most noticeable difference: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=U62YLJ1iw4A https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=emeaPhylCV8 Setting aside what you think of the song, that effect in the first one where it sounds like your speakers/headphones are broken is real. bad. mixin'.

Was it true Hybrid Theory changed their band name to Linkin Park so they could be alphabetically next to Limp Bizkit? I heard that as a kid. I'm sure some bands have done strategic alphabetizations like that.

I'm sure some bands have done strategic alphabetizations like that. no but they did change the spelling to linkin park because lincolnpark.com was already taken, a truly visionary example of early SEO that will cement them in the pantheon of 21st century online marketing disruptors. All these startups misspelling their names on purpose? They owe it all to linkin park.

FilthyImp posted:I talked mad poo poo about LP in high school and, as a band, I was really impressed with how they grew and kept producing good music. it's weird, hybrid theory does have the guitar amplifier set to "butt" and the lyrical content is adolescent and self-pitying and mike shinoda's rapping is... not like bad, but you can see why he was seen less as "a rapper" and more as "the rap guy from linkin park" but, at the same time, they were obviously interested in finding artistic ways to express these strongly held feelings (even if those feelings were "I feel bad" and they were 23 years old and shut the gently caress up you god drat 23 year olds) even Crawling, which is like synonymous with whiny white dude raprock, the lyrics are way better than I gave them credit for. they're clearly trying to capture the state of mind of a person whose lack of self-control has left them terrified of losing their sense of identity quote:Against my will, I stand beside my own reflection. It's haunting, how I can't seem to find myself again. My walls are closing in. Without a sense of confidence, I'm convinced that there's just too much pressure to take. I've felt this way before- so insecure. it's not deep but putting them in the same bucket as limp bizkit almost seems mean if limp bizkit wrote crawling it would be called "chew dirt" and the lyrics would go "I feel bad (what?) yeah said i motherfucking feel bad (c'mon!) [guitar breakdown] back the gently caress up"

Cubone posted:it's not deep but putting them in the same bucket as limp bizkit almost seems mean  I agree they stand apart from that era's offerings. You noted that their lyricism improved, but overall I felt their music production actually changed and experimented with their sound. Hybrid Theory has that rough sound, their later work was a little more digital and grand. Even if their Transformers songs sound a little alike, they're loads different that their first stuff. I dunno, I just appreciate a band that can do that. There was also the issue of their lead singer literally needing to change his singing due to vocal chord damage.

Cubone posted:man, remember the grey album? That JayZ/Linkin Park album is forever linked with a friend's brother in law's bachelor party around 2000. A friend had hired strippers to come to his place and for some reason the only music available on hand was the JayZ/Linkin album. That album is maybe twenty minutes long, so several of us sat around while these girls shoved their business in his face and the album looped like 8 times. It felt like I was stuck in some kind of white trash time loop. You may be wondering if this all took place in a high class hotel, and to that I would answer NO YOU FOOL OF COURSE IT WAS IN A DIRTY MOBILE HOME.
