5.0 out of 5 stars It's all good, April 5, 2001

By	Edward S FLores "sheila589" (Everett, WA United States) - See all my reviews

Anything by Linkin Park is good. This is no exception. Has the first single song from their debut CD Hybrid Theory, plus two unreleased tracks that are every bit as great as LP's other songs. "My December" is my favorite, as it is somber, moody, and deep. "High Voltage" dictates their mission and let's you know they're the real thing. Is mostly rap, but clever and fun. And if you pop this CD into your computer, you get to see their single "One Step Closer" video in pretty good quality. Worth it if you ask me. I enjoy this little import very much

5.0 out of 5 stars LP kicks ...!, December 30, 2001

By	Katie (OR) - See all my reviews

I'd buy this single just for "My December," which showcases the band's softer side and definately should've made it on to Hybrid Theory. "High Voltage" also shows that they're not limited to just rock-oriented music, but that they can skillfully cut a hip-hop track too. And of course, there's "One Step Closer," the loud, hard metal track that has talented lead singer Chester Bennington shouting "Shut up when I'm talking to you!" as it's bridge.
This is a great single... it doesn't have one track of just the band talking to you saying, "Oh, thanks for buying our single. Now go buy our cd." Linkin Park is the best band out their and I'm one of their biggest fans!! (But if you don't wanna go buy the single just for three songs, you could get Hybrid Theory and download "My December" and "High Voltage") And just as a note, there's two versions of "High Voltage": the remix and the original. The original doesn't have Chester on it, just MC Mike Shinonda because it was recorded before Chester joined the band.
