Hybrid Theory (the album) was from 2000. the Hybrid Theory EP from when the band were still calling themselves Hybrid Theory, was from the '90s, and then rereleased through the LP Underground fan club some time a few years back.

but yeah i liked that album too, and Meteora, and to a lesser extent, Reanimation. But i hated Minutes To Midnight, and pretty much everything post Collision Course.

it might not even need to be in the same key or timing potentially, you can do amazing things with music editing software.

part of me really wants to make a fan mix using a guitar track i got for Life Is Beautiful by Sixx:A.M. along with one of those guitarless mixes of a ChiDem song. but i dno what would work with it, it would be quite a challenging thing to do. i might have a play in Audition later.

if it makes you feel better, i like it too

my top 20 would have to be (in no particular order):

Avenged Sevenfold - City Of Evil
Metallica - Death Magnetic
Slipknot - All Hope Is Gone
Trivium - Shogun
Bullet For My Valentine - The Poison
Guns N' Roses - Chinese Democracy
Cradle Of Filth - Godspeed On The Devils Thunder
Fall Out Boy - Folie A Deux
Dropkick Murphys - The Meanest Of Times
Dream Theater - Systematic Chaos
Dethklok - The Dethalbum
Dragonforce - Ultra Beatdown (Japanese import, just for E.P.M., such a good song)
Hollywood Undead - Swan Songs
Hadouken! - Music For An Accelerated Culture
Pendulum - In Silico
Machine Head - The Blackening
Mastodon - Crack The Skye
Mindless Self Indulgence - You'll Rebel To Anything (As Long As It's Not Challenging)
