Californian sextet Linkin Park simultaneously took inspiration from and expanded upon the hybrid of heavy rock, hip-hop, and electronics that made such bands as Korn and Limp Bizkit so successful at the tail end of the 1990s. This DVD/CD combo marks the rap-rock heavyweight's triumphant return after a four-year absence. Super producers Rick Rubin and Mike Shinoda join the band in crafting MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT, a full-length album that features the single "What I've Done." The DVD also includes downloadable MP3s for each of the songs, plus it takes fans behind the scenes of the album's creation.
Reviews
Fantastic!
If the ambition is to provide two hours of instantly forgettable, popcorn-munching escapism, it succeeds.
It is neither dumb nor smart enough to be fun, and spends way too much time with its boring human characters.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
