Album of the Day

Alternative metal band Linkin Park shot out of the gate in 2000 with HYBRID THEORY, which sold over 10 million copies. Following a remix album, the band's hybrid of hard rock and rap returned in full force three years after their debut with METEORA. Led by the intense interplay of vocalists Chester Bennington and Mike Shineda, the album's 13 tightly wound tracks include such MTV and radio favorites as “Somewhere I Belong,” “Breaking The Habit” and “Numb,” all of which crossed over to pop chart success. Linkin Park's Rob Bourden was born on this day in 1979, and we'll wish the drummer a happy birthday with another spin of the 7x platinum METEORA.
