Listening to bands you loved when you were younger

Friday 8 April 2011
Listened to Hybrid Theory by Linkin Park for the first time in about 5 year's yesterday. Hybrid Theory was top notch, apart from that crappy little musical interlude track thing, and the Jay-Z stuff was brilliant too, but then the next album just seemed pretty much a whole lot of "meh". The song they did with the X-Ecutioners was pure quality mind!

When I got home I spent the next few hours listen to old songs that I loved





So far so good then I got to The Offspring..... Man what a load of fucking shite, That is when I stopped in fear of destroying any more memories. So has any attempted to recapture the sounds of your youth, how does it stand up today?

    The Offspring still rocks! At least Smash and Ixnay On The Hombre do.

    Oh man, sandstorm was the bomb back then when I listened to it. Good beat.

  1. I used to listen to linkin park, when they first started putting stuff out, and grew to hate their newer stuff like meteroa. Now I look back and just think it's all crap...

    The offspring? I still like them. Dexter's voice can be a bit annoying, but their old CDs were pretty good. Not their new one, Rise and Fall and Rage and Grace or whatever it's called :/

    My music tastes back then were horrible. In 5th grade I loved POD, Limp Bizkit, and Puddle of Mudd, now I can't stand any of them. Horibble horrible horrible.

  1. great background on this

  1. Insider33 said...:

    Sandstorm is the one I remember, but I also hate it because it always gets stuck in my head.

  1. This is the best type of nostalgia for me.

    Every time I play SR-71's Tomorrow album, I'm cussing 12 again. Haha.

  1. Unknown said...:

    The other day I listened to 'Rollin' by Limp Bizkit which was my fave song for a long time back in the day. God it sucked hard.

  1. Canon said...:

    hybrid theory was one of my favourite albums back in the day. I'm going to listen to them right now!

  1. dont know about you but i still love listening to them.

  1. I tried to listen to old Silverchair and Bush, which i really liked, when i was about 14. But nowadays i can't really enjoy them like i did back then.

    I remember that zombie nation track. It used to turn my brains into mush!

  1. John said...:

    Sandstorm is a classic. I actually heard a great dubstep remix for that song.

  1. -E- said...:

    weezer for me. still just as good as it ever was. the older albums i mean.

  1. I was into Hybrid Theory too but since then it's been all down hill for Linkin Park. Next big thing was Limb Bizkit and it still fucking rocks. Darude was classic too.

  1. Remi said...:

    Sandstorm never gets old

  1. Too many bands start off amazing, then become awful. I loved the original Gorillaz years ago, but they became worse and worse... they're completely unrecognisable now. :(
