A Thousand Suns

I am a hardcore Linkin Park fan. I have all their albums and heard all their songs over and over. Now listening to their new album, “A Thousand Suns”, All I can say is AWESOME. I really appreciate their effort on doing something new. The name of the album, was said to be derived from a quote from bagawadh gita. There are a total of 15 tracks with 8 full length tracks and the rest of the 7 fall under intro and interludes. 

1. "The Requiem" 

      This is the opening track with lyrics from “The Catalyst” in a female voice

2. "The Radiance"                                     

     This is an interlude

3. "Burning in the Skies"                        

      The first full length track. Not too much screaming but still a good track. I give it 3.5/5

4. "Empty Spaces"                                    

      Another interlude

5. "When They Come for Me"            

      A good rap sung by Mike Shinoda. I especially like the start and the end.  3.5/5

6. "Robot Boy"                                           

      A pleasant one. At first you would even wonder if its LP. One of my favs.  4/5

     This one’s like the regular LP with Chester’s screaming. My fav. 5/5
