Hybrid Theory: The record that would change the lives of the band and the legions of new fans that would follow in the wake of the album's incredible success.
"We're all out of time, this is how we find how it all unwinds..."
[From the LPA band bio:]
With a well-deserved record contract signed and in their back pockets, the band turned to writing their first album. Debut albums are often a band's only chance to show their label they're worth the money being invested in them, and the pressure is paramount. The music industry isn't prone to give second chances. Linkin Park knew they had to write an impressive album, and their first step was to find the right producer for their debut. At first, the label and band had troubles finding a producer willing to take the helm for a new band. Many newly signed acts lack the focus and skill to be successful, and present a challenge for producers. Blue proposed the project to numerous producers but many declined, not willing to give the band a chance. Finally, they found Don Gilmore. With Don at the helm, Linkin Park wrote and recorded their debut album 'Hybrid Theory' in four weeks. Many of the songs were rewritten versions of the previous demos they had sent out to record labels. It was a huge risk. These were slightly modified and polished versions of the songs that had gotten them rejected by virtually every record label on numerous occasions. The band had taken a risk, and waited to see if it would pay off.
October 24th, 2000: The most important date of their careers. 'Hybrid Theory' was released to the public. The lead single 'One Step Closer' was starting to get serious airplay on radio and television networks. The band themselves were seeing increased media attention. Tour dates were selling out. Within five weeks of 'Hybrid Theory's release, the album had been certified Gold by the RIAA, signifying 500,000 units sold. The band had officially made it after five years of hard work."
"Do you feel cold and lost in desperation? You build up hope, but failure's all you've known. Remember all the sadness and frustration, and let it go..."
Many of us can remember how we discovered Linkin Park. To many fans, the initial experience of listening to "Hybrid Theory" from start to finish would prove to be life altering, and would steer many lives in completely unexpected directions. "Hybrid Theory" can fondly be looked back upon as a soundtrack to many of our lives in the early twenty-first century. For some, listening to the album would bring them back from the brink of despair, while others would meet lifelong friends and companions through shared love of the same band and its music.
This video is our way of giving back to the band that has changed our lives in such a positive way, and who have given us the strength to make it through.
Created via the use of over 100 submissions sent over a two week period by fans from over 20 different countries, this video slide-show is a heartfelt look into the impact Linkin Park's music has had on all of our lives.
On behalf of the entire Linkin Park fan community, LPAssociation.com, the LPU, the LPMB and the Linkin Park street team, we would like to express our deepest thanks and gratitude to the band for the life-changing music they have given us, and for their unwavering dedication to their fans.
Here's to another 10 years.
Thanks Mike, Chester, Brad, Rob, Phoenix and Joe!
-LPA Staff (Derek, Joe, Keaton, Todd, Louis, Andrea, Mark and Luke)
