Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory

Linkin Park - Hybrid Theory Track Listings
Papercut
A great song, powerful intro begins with an almost danceable, rapped throughout,electronic beat , before the guitars hit the scene. This song has the album's biggest guitar riffs. Intense start, emotional finish.
One Step Closer
The hardest song on the CD. Free of rapping. Very intense; the second best on the CD
With You
Very rythmatic, with a lot of beats and scratching in the background. Nice song.
Points Of Authority
No raps except the beginning and has the guitarist playing crunchy riffs over a catchy, DJ driven beat. My favorite part of this song is the end, when the DJ mixes things up and changes the beat three times.
Crawling
Awesome work this song very popular in my country.
Runaway
Not very good for their standard, but still a good song; all about betrayal
By Myself
mixes throbbing guitars and a spacey beat. A sleepy rap, nice job, with what seems like a crash in the background.The song eventually gains momentum off itself and has big choruses.
In the End
begins with what sounds like a piano (making a "ding dong" sound) and swift rap. By the end, however, it's the same old Linkin Park One of the best nu-metal songs ever. Rapped and rocked in various spots morphs into a rock song with normal, elongated singing.
A Place for My Head
Mostly rapped, very rapid fire style, about being used by people
Forgotten
includes throbbing riffs with catchy DJ scratching thrown in between. A hard rap about tough times.Chester begins by almost whispering and ends by almost yelling.
Cure for the Itch
Record sampling all about rhythms and beats. No singing, just the DJ at work is an instrumental which shows how talented DJ Hahn , if you didn't already know. He makes all kinds of different and very catchy beats.
Pushing Me Away
Lighter rock, only a little rapping

Hybrid Theory plays as a complete album, there are no throw away tracks here.Linkin Park are a great new band who do what they do as good or better than anybody else.Linkin Park uses two vocalists, one singing and one rapping along with a dj and the results are spectacular Mike Shinoda handles the rapping while Chester Bennington does the singing/crooning and yelling over the hard choruses. That's another reason why this album is so good.
