Bought this CD fresh out of highschool on 2010. At first I was confused, it didn't sound like the linkin park that I thought I knew. But then I realized that there was something about the album that just struck a cord with me. I can easily say, that it's probably the most I've ever listened to any album. There's a genius to the whole album, that at first listen you might not realize. They were years ahead of the music industry.
