As a mega Linkin Park fan I couldn't wait for the release of this long awaited album. I've owned a copy now for a couple of months, and after a confused first impression (couldn't work out if I liked it or not), and having listened to it 100's of times now... I ABSOLUTELY LOVE IT TO BITS!!!!!!!! It's a new direction for the guys, with softer tracks included, and a new style of harder stuff, mainly due to influence of producer Rick Rubin who worked with U2 for years. This is evident at its foremost in the track SHADOW OF THE DAY. I know you'll read other reviews which say it is weaker than past albums, well to defend it, I say to make your own minds up like I did by listening to it a few times. I'm sure like me you'll find it an inspirational album to say the least!
