Recenzja Reanimation z Jam! // www.Canoe.ca/jam

Obviously, rap-metallions Linkin Park have been busy.

It's been less than two years since they released their debut album Hybrid Theory, and they've already had a handful of hits, played an insane amount of shows -- over 300 last year alone -- and copped a Grammy for best hard rock performance for Crawling.

Trouble is, when you spend all that time striking while the iron is hot, you never get a chance to put any new irons in the fire. So, presumably as a stopgap release, we now have the remix album Reanimation.

Yes, that's right -- a rap-rock remix record. Perhaps, if you're a stone Linkin Park fan, you'll want these reworked versions of Crawling (featuring Staind's Aaron Lewis) and One Step Closer (with Korn's Jonathan Davis). As for the rest of it, well, let's just say we spent two weeks listening to this CD one night.

Time to reanimate your songwriting chops, guys.
