Hybrid Theory is the debut album by the American rock band Linkin Park, released on October 24, 2000 through Warner Bros. Records. The album was a huge commercial success, selling over 10 million units in the United States alone and peaking at number two on the Billboard 200 while also reaching high positions on other charts worldwide, despite receiving mixed reviews from publications. It has also sold 24 million copies worldwide as of 2009, including over 10 million in the U.S. which makes it the band's best-selling album, the second best-selling album of the 21st century so far, and the second best selling debut album. It is also one of the few albums to be certified Diamond in the U.S. that was released in this century. Recorded at NRG Recordings in North Hollywood, California, and produced by Don Gilmore, the album's lyrical themes deal with problems lead vocalist Chester Bennington experienced during his adolescence, including drug abuse and the constant fighting and divorce of his parents. Hybrid Theory takes its title from the previous name of the band. Four singles were released from the album: "One Step Closer", "Papercut", "In the End", and the Grammy Award-winning "Crawling", which along with "In the End" was responsible for launching Linkin Park into mainstream popularity. At the 2002 Grammy Awards, Hybrid Theory was nominated for Best Rock Album. Hybrid Theory was released in the United States on October 24, 2000 following the debut of "One Step Closer" on the radio. It entered the U.S. Billboard 200 charts at #16 in late 2000, and was certified gold by the RIAA five weeks after its release. In 2001, Hybrid Theory sold 4.8 million copies in the United States, making it the best-selling album of the year, and it was estimated that the album continued selling 100,000 copies per week in early 2002. Throughout the following years, the album continued to sell at a fast pace and was certified diamond by the RIAA in 2005 for selling 10 million copies in the U.S. In 2007, it has sold over 10 million copies in the U.S. alone. It has also sold 24 million copies worldwide as of 2009, including over 10 million in the U.S. which makes it the band's best-selling album and the best-selling debut album of the 21st century. Critical opinion for Hybrid Theory was mixed. Some critics gave the album positive reviews; Stephanie Dickison of PopMatters commented that the band was a "far more complex and talented group than the hard rock boy bands of late", and claimed that "they will continue to fascinate and challenge music's standard sounds." Q magazine gave Hybrid Theory four out of five stars. Robert Christgau of The Village Voice wrote that “the men don't know what the angry boys understand”, and gave the album a "two-star honorable mention rating", citing "Papercut" and "Points of Authority" as highlights of the album. Jenny Eliscu of Rolling Stone commented that Hybrid Theory had "as much potency as albums by Limp Bizkit or Korn" and called it an album that "reflects the frustration of life". Other critics, however, dismissed the album. Allmusic writer William Ruhlmann said that "Linkin Park sounds like a Johnny-come-lately to an already overdone musical style" and called "One Step Closer" "a typical effort", referring to the lyrics of the song's chorus. NME's Noel Gardner commented that "otherwise damn fine soaring emo-crunchers like 'With You' and 'A Place for My Head' are pointlessly jazzed up with tokenistic scratching," giving the album a score of six out of ten. Despite initially mixed reviews, Hybrid Theory found itself in several “must have” lists that were compiled by various music publications, networks, and other media. Some of the more prominent of these lists to feature Hybrid Theory are shown below: Publication Accolade Rank The Village Voice Pazz & Jop 159 Classic Rock The 100 Greatest Rock Albums of All-Time 72 Rock and Roll Hall of Fame The Definitive 200 64 Esli Jacinth 1001 Albums You Must Hear Before You Die* Record Collector Best of 2001* Rock Sound Les 150 Albums De La Génération (Top 150 Albums of Our Lifetime)58 ℗ 2000 Warner Records Inc.

Great album. Cool classic album R.I.P Chester Bennington

I. Hi I have

A Perfect Album.. Linkin Park at its best. The last two songs are the weakest but there’s a reason why this album is the best-selling rock album of the 21st century. Shinoda, Bennington, and Hahn flawlessly play to their strengths in an album that gets you going from the very first song “Papercut”.

Yassss. Linkin park: 10000000000000000 times better than other bands!!! Place for my head is actually better as the Amp version in Reanimation when they remake all their songs!! By myself is my ultimate favorite, even know Burn it Down is a whole lot better. Most of their music is in movie’s like Transformers or Little Nicky. I LOVE YOUR GUYS MUSIC!! ROCK ON LINKIN PARK!! Random Reviewer Oof

These guys are good. Chester does the singing Mike does the rapping some guitar or piano too Brad does guitar Dave does guitar Rob does drums Joe does dj

Rick. This is an influential album, Hybrid Theory is the perfect name for a album infused with rock, rap, with some of the best written lyrics performed with passion. Every song on this album is high powered rush. This album got me through my deployment. Great piece of art.

Great. Classic album

Woo. Crawling is a vine :3

Still incredible. It’s crazy to think this album is now 21 years old. It’s old enough to vote and drink. It’s still a mind blowing album that makes me happy to this day.

Memories🖤. 👌🏼

Rip Chester. Rip Chester I love this album

Stop ruining this album!!!. Linkin Park! Please stop manipulating the originally recorded and mixed songs! You’re ruining them! Especially Crawling! That song is perfect! And you keep adding echo and lowering the intensity of the rhythm guitar! STOP!!!!!

Their best album. Hands down the greatest Linkin Park album. Had it on cassette when I was little haha. This is also one of the best albums of all time. From the first track to the last, every song is phenomenal.

2020. I remember when this song came out and this was the most use song for AMV=anime music videos this was yearsss ago youtube was just getting started and this anime naruto was out they use this song when he fought sasuke at the final vally

Classic. One of the dopest albums out there. RIP Chester Bennington.

Best hard rock. Cuz it is

dlakokolloydboy. halalkdradapote

😖😤😡😭. Why dam**t?!? I lived for this band. And then he did that.

RIP CHESTER. I hate how Chester is gone but if I could still meet him I would tell him and the rest of the band that this is the best album that they have ever produced.

Linkin. Such a great album

Y’all just. praise this guy because he killed him self, he wasn’t even relevant anymore until he took the easy way out.😒

Pretty Awesome. The first of LPs albums is definitely one of the best, and it’s a nicely flowing album. Here are my reviews for each song: 1. Papercut 9/10 It’s a very nice intro to the album and it displays a palate of LPs skills. 2. One Step Closer 8.5/10 It’s good to scream with if you’re angry. 3. With You 10/10 I personally love this song even though it’s less popular. 4. Points of Authority 8/10 Nice memorable tune. 5. Crawling 9.5/10 Brilliant. 6. Runaway 7/10 Slightly repetitive. 7. By Myself 9/10 Different sound effects. 8. In The End 8.5/10 One of the most popular LP songs but I enjoy other songs on the album more. 9. A Place For My Head 10/10 Great mix of rap and rock. 10. Forgotten 8/10 Nice start but sounds to familiar to other rock songs after. 11. Cure For The Itch 9.5/10 Something different and a creative instrumental. 12. Pushing Me Away 9.5/10 A great finish for this album. Other Thoughts: I wish this album had an intro like some of the others. Overall, I have loved listening to this and won’t stop soon!

LEGENDARY. GREATEST. ALBUM. EVER.

Yummy. Yum

Amazing. Amazing

Rap and rock Best mix. Will go down in history

The OG. Linking Park is hands down my favorite rock band of all time. I love most of their work, and even though “Minutes to Midnight” and “A Thousand Suns” are my favorite, this is what started it all. ‘In the end’ is their greatest song of all time. I don’t even think that’s up for debate.

Good. Good album

Eathan. I LOVE this album

I love all of the songs.. This album is one of the best albums I ever listened maybe even the best rock/rap album I have heard in my life the flow in the songs are unique, and amazing you have to listen to this album all of the songs are great no bad song.

Good.. Hybrid Theory is Linkin Park’s original sound. Many people worship this album like God, and it’s not hard to see why. Not my favorite, but very good nonetheless. My favorite songs are One Step Closer, A Place For My Head, and Forgotten. Definitely worth checking out if you’re into Nu Metal.

Papercut. It’s so catchy

This is so amazing. Love this album so much every song is great and the instruments are great to

Good buy. I love this album. In my opinion one of the best!

❤️. ❤️

just me?. am I the only one here because I saw that it was Bella Swan‘s favorite song🫠

Hmm. I heard such great things about Linkin Park for years without ever listening. Have to say, I’m pretty disappointed. The instrumentals are well done and the music all sounds pretty good, but, seriously, people have got to be kidding when they say his voice is so good and unique. I mean, yeah, it’s above average but not any better than plenty of other artists. The reason I finally checked LP out is because of a cover band called Wretches and Kings (one of the vocalists is from a band I’m a fan of, Righteous Vendetta) and their voices are just as good. In some cases I like them better.

Their best. Great album

A Respectable Rap Metal Album. Nü-Metal and Rap Rock were in full swing by the time this album came out. I feel like Linkin Park is the only band besides Rage Against The Machine to fuse hip hop and metal well enough to not make it sound gimmicky or corny. There are many aspects I like the guitars are heavy, some of the riffs are pretty catchy but other times they’re kinda rudimentary. Chester Bennington is certainly a talented vocalist, the most talented guy in the band as far as I’m concerned. My gripes with this album are Mike Shinoda. I’ve never thought he was great rapper and his pen game is pretty weak as well. Also the lyrics can be a little too “suburban white boy” angsty for me. Overall it’s still one of the better albums to come out of the nü-metal subgenre

Masterpiece. This review is 18.5 years past due. My favorite album ever. Even over any Metallica offering, which is hard to write. RIP Chester, you are an ICON.

Perfection! 💯. Greatest band of all time!!

TRULY revolutionized rock music. I really wish today’s music had more rock. With all the “revolutions” to electro-pop, modern music is (mostly) trash. This album is part of the last years real music was mainstream. And I’m eternally grateful.

Amazing. This album came out when I was in high school. Still listening today
