3/15/2017 0 Comments Is following the trend bad?If you are born in the 90's or even the 80's, you might have heard the band called Linkin Park. They are an alternative rock band that is one of the first, if not the first, band to mix rock, heavy metal, and electronic all together. They're fan base is huge and I am a huge fan of them. I have been following them since their debut album. Their sound is so unique and was so new at the time, everyone was at least interested. In 2010 they came out with an album called A Thousand Suns. For three years they were silent. No new music, no new posts, or no new videos then they came out with an album called Recharged which was very electronic heavy album. Then after that the next year they came out with The Hunting Party. This was when their fans began to worry because they were sounding more like the trendy music instead of what they have created. Then all of a sudden, they announced that they are coming out with the album called One More Light. Everyone was so hyped and couldn't wait to listen to it. Linkin Park came out with a new music video of their new single called Heavy... Such disappointment... for the other fans at least. I personally liked the song and the sound but so many people were hating the song and hating on Linkin Park because it was such a pop sounding song. As a musician myself, I get it. I get why Linkin Park has decided to feature a pop singer and make a pop song because they have to follow the trend because that is how they make money. I do miss the old sound but I personally do like the song Heavy still. So is following the trend bad? Well, depends how you look at it. For the fans it is but for the band, they really have no other choice. Other artists such as, Eminem and Jay-Z has also followed the trend. Listen to it and you decide.
