It being only a half hour gives me a little bit of hope. At least it will be over fast if it’s bad

Album Rating: 3.5

Yea this flies by

that album cover is nasty

i think the album title was supposed to reference where you start your rating score from, and then you can add a point each time there's a good song

unfortunately that still leaves us at 0 and i have yet to discover a way to gain access to that particular rating so in the end it doesn't even matter

Album Rating: 2.5

Heavy is the Crown is good but this just doesn't really feel like LP at all.



They shoulda just made a side project called The Emptiness Machine and this might be a 3. Let the Linkin Park name rest with Chester.

"i think the album title was supposed to reference where you start your rating score from, and then you can add a point each time there's a good song"

That’s what I did, looks like I was more generous though

Just listened to the four singles for the first time aside from Emptiness Machine, and I gotta say if the rest of the record is around the same quality it will literally be their third best record… which isn’t a high bar to clear but eh

The album is great, people just suffer from nostalgia and being full time haters (hence the review bombing of an album 2 months before its release).

Album Rating: 2.0

Probably hard for some to move past the whole “cult” and “supporting a r@pist” thing

How is the production so goddamn uninspired for a band with a budget of this magnitude
