All Linkin Park songs sound alike and look alike!? Well, that's the idea unfolded in this blog:
I don't see this as a critique of LP. This same formula appears in Nirvana and other bands. I'm not really interested in arguing about the "sameness" of a band's songs. It seems to me that since the invention of popular music, one pitfall was that in order to be or remain "popular" you have to get a very large number of fans to hang with you. I usually see bands stretching out only to loose their audience (I love bands like Jethro Tull who can make several significant changes, including genre, and flourish).
What I am interested is in those clean compression lines the author reveals. I want my sound design students to get used to reading the compression in sound-waves visually. So, thanks for the images; nice work.
