Joel Derouin, Charlie Bisharat, Alyssa Park, Sara Parkins, Michelle Richards, Mark Robertson – violins It’s weird to make songs without an idea of what they’ll end up being,” he said. “If I were to write a Linkin Park Song, I’d be thinking, ‘This is a Linkin Park song that goes on a Linkin Park album’. If I were to write a song for Demi Lovato, I’m thinking I’ve got to do right by her. Right now, I’m just making the stuff I want to make. I don’t know what it’ll end up being and at this point, I don’t care about defining that. I just want to make songs.” Shinoda released his debut solo album ‘ Post Traumatic’ in 2018 and a handful of singles and EPs have followed but for the past couple of years, he’s been writing and producing for other artists – we asll ew writing more songs for himself. Writing for AllMusic, Stephen Thomas Erlewine described the album as "nothing more and nothing less than a Hybrid Theory part 2.", but added that the band "has discipline and editing skills, keeping this record at a tight 36 minutes and 41 seconds, a move that makes it considerably more listenable than its peers... since they know where to focus their energy, something that many nu-metal bands simply do not." [20] Sputnikmusic writer Damrod criticized the album as being too similar to Hybrid Theory, but praised the album's production quality and catchiness, stating "the songs just invade your brain".

Explaining to MTV, Bennington said: "We don't talk about situations, we talk about the emotions behind the situations. Mike and I are two different people, so we can't sing about the same things, but we both know about frustration and anger and loneliness and love and happiness, and we can relate on that level." In the same interview, Shinoda explained it as: "What we really wanted to do was just push ourselves and push each other to really find new ways to be creative." He continued: "We wanted each sample that was in each song to be something that might perk your ear – something that you might not have ever heard before." [13] He continued: “I don’t think we were nervous about ‘Meteora’ being good. We were just so bent on making it great, that if we heard anything that could possibly be made better, we would work as hard as we could to change it. It’s very rare that that’ll be as special as the best stuff though. I don’t know if there’s another ‘Lost’, but maybe there is.
