Linkin Park: Minutes to Midnight

, , ,

Great Stuff - Linkin Park's Best Album so far
You know what it is that made the music of the late 60's and even some parts of the 70's so great? it wasn't all about talent although that, of course, played a huge part. It was because music was so creative and bands/artists such as The Beatles, Pink Floyd, and Bob Dylan weren't afraid to go out on limbs and take risks w/ their music. Would The Beatles and Pink Floyd have the same awesome/wow, incredible! factor today if they hadn't ventured from the style of their initial albums? The answer is no, their music wouldn't have been so fantastic if they hadn't taken so many risks and been so daring and creative. For example, the critics mostly hated "Sgt. Pepper's Lonely Heart Club Band" by The Beatles when it first came out because it was too different from their previous albums. But now it's regarded by many music buffs as being one of the greatest albums of all time. So why is it that today when a band/artist does something new and different people are so quick to think that they're "selling out" or that their music is bad just because it's not like their previous efforts? I only hope that people will look back on this album and see how much more mature and beautiful it is than Linkin Park's two previous albums. It's an imperfect album but one that is fantastic nonetheless. Haunting, powerful, great melodies and thoughtful, reflective lyrics. I wish that more LP fans would just appreciate this album for what it is and not compare it so much to their other albums. Because I love it and hope that others will too. Or they can hate it; I'd just like to see more fans be more open-minded about it and not simply trash it 'cause it's new and different, that's all.

Sony Ericsson W850i Precious Black Phone


Pretty good phone if I can say myself
This is an excellent Cellphone/walkman

If you're looking for look, don't look any further. If you like technology, with good functionality and an excellent walkman then this is it.

Pros:
*Has pretty much everything you can possibly (Bluetooth 2.0, 2mp camera, Infrared port,back light, video calling,usb connection)

*Great screen with an outstanding resolution

Cons:
*At the beginning you can sometimes press the walkman button by mistake, but after a while you get used to it.

*If you want to press the power button sometimes you may slide the phone down by mistake since the slider doesn't present much resistance.

This is a great cell phone with a lot of good features, but its a little too wide for my taste. If you can look past those little design mistakes, then you'll have a cellphone in your hands.
