[kj] Thank You, Linkin Park

[Paul Wady]

I just listened to Linkin Park for the first time.  There is this template now, standard issue soft american rock against the corporation system that produces stuff like that music?  Er...

I am sure they are all nice boys.  Well done Karen!

        Without a doubt. Their place is reserved in Hell.

          They are a truly 
          horrific concoction though.

                  Linkin Park are quite obviously not a Killing Joke 
                  rip-off. I can't see much of the Joke in their bland 
                  nu-metal.
                   
                  Jim.

                    How does it go?  Imitation is the sincerest form of 
                    flattery?  Now all them little Linkin Park consumers 
                    will find out on the global grapevine web, about Killing 
                    Joke.  Heavens Mummy!  Who are they?  Are 
                    there trees and animals in the Ladbroke Grove?  
                    What kind of computer does this Geordie programme to get 
                    that sound?

Viral conquest.  The Joke are so 
                    significant they end up getting ripped off like this.  
                    Like the Beatles, the Stones... 
                      
                      
                      
                    Here is the real joke: 
                      
                    What do 
                    you call a good Linkin Park album? 
                      
                    == A 
                    Killing Joke rip off!

                    people. I guess the state of popular music is worse than I 
                    thought.

                    the noxious Nokia theatre on Times Square. In doing my 
                    research, I learn that the band has a new album slated for 
                    release. Not exactly shocking. The title? A THOUSAND SUNS. 
                    Sound a bit familiar.
