Linkin Park hope to have the follow up to
their best selling debut, Hybrid Theory, out in March. Hybrid Theory
was an unexpected smash hit and became the best-selling album of 2001.
Members of the band has told the press
that fans should expect the new album to be heavier but still retain
the melodic qualities of their debut. Does this mean that the band
views the declining popularity of rap-rock as an excuse to go more rock?
Its hard to judge by the information available but the bands rehashing
of their debut album into hip-hop remixes didnt sit well with a lot of
fans who viewed the remix album as a sellout or gimmick.
The band has reportedly recorded over 50
songs for the album and have narrowed the list down to 15 tracks. One track
in particular, "Breaking the Habit," will feature an orchestra accompanying
the band and their samples.
A title and track listing are expected
to surface soon.
