I get it Meteora was a good album, although they lost a lot of fans by that time, who just wanted metal/rock.
Yeah, which is unfortunate. Sure, the first two albums are the ones I've listened to the most (hell, I even have to 20 year anniversary vinyl edition of Hybrid Theory), but I honestly enjoy every single album they've made. Sure, their last one is completely different, but it still had some solid tracks. I wholeheartedly LOVE A Thousand Suns and there are even times where I could put that album in my top 10 if I'm in the mood for it.

Btw., mad respect for getting that Limp Bizkit album right, haha

Compilations that I can still remember (I've forgotten a lot its been a long time):
Tiesto - Magik 6
' - In Search of Sunrise 2 (includes salt tank - Eugina, which is probably my favorite song)
Oakenfold - Tranceport
JOOF - The Best Trance Anthems ...Ever! (cringey title I know, but its good)
S&D - Northern Exposure Expeditions
Digweed - GU006 Sydney (seriously listen to disc 2 where it climaxes into stargazer, that is special)
PvD - Politics of Dancing 1
Solarstone - Pure Trance 1
John B - Trance n Bass
There's another one that I have in the back of my head that I cant recall the name of and its driving me crazy, it had Delirium Silence as the first track on the 1st disc and the name escapes me argh

totally get it. Hybrid Theory to me makes more sense as an album, but Meteora was very much an art piece, and you can tell just from the album art. I feel like Hybrid Theory is the more polished of the two, while Meteora is more raw and exposed.
No Reanimation? Thats probably my favourite one now and what I always return too. So mature sounding and so many styles, it was a massive influence to me. Really electronic and experiemental. Love the first 3 albums so much though.

Well, I haven't listened to much of their later stuff. I'll have to give that a try.

Reanimation is the 2nd album, remixing all the hybrid theory tracks and b-sides with electronic/hip-hop/industrial styles.

Haha, funny. I also use to love Hybrid Theory/reanimation. It was a magical record for me when i was 14.

Place for My Head was "my" track back then.

And I was crazy for the 5th track on Reanimation. My friends were so annoyned when i had this on replay. :p

Currently re-visiting my all time top 10; I might have to change a couple of albums in the non-electronic section!
