As much as I hate to admit it, this is true. The people who state their opinion about this band politely get a pass.

But then, you've got people either shaming fans for liking Linkin Park or just stating their opinion about the band in a rude way, leading to comment flame wars.

I'm going to try and say this in the most polite way possible: Not all bands and songs are for everyone. If you don't like it, that's okay, but there are better ways to state your opinion rather than bashing others for liking certain genres, bands, or artists.

I mean, it doesn't bother me if someone doesn't like them. What bothers me are the negative comparisons. Why can't both bands be considered talented? It doesn't have to be one or the other. Oh well. Haters gonna hate.

However, they were a leading figure in rock, investing it in new ways to make it what it is today. But yes, they DID invent metal. They were the first people to experiment with heavy guitar and scream singing (not to be confused with the shouting in 1950s music, that's just inbetween their singing)
