Greatest Hits Compilation on Double LP!
Includes Rare Track "QWERTY" + the Previously Unreleased "Friendly Fire"!
Tracking Angle Rated 9/10 Music, 9/10 Sound!
Papercuts is the first singles collection from innovative musical force Linkin Park. The career-spanning 20-track album compiles 18 essential anthems, plus the never-before-released track "Friendly Fire" recorded during the 2017 sessions for their seventh album One More Light and fan-favorite rarity "QWERTY."
Linkin Park were inspired to thoughtfully curate Papercuts by their fans' passionate reception of the 20th Anniversary Editions of Hybrid Theory in 2020 and Meteora in 2023. That enthusiasm led to this comprehensive retrospective of the band's journey so far in the span of one album.
Thoughtfully curated and sequenced...Across 20 tracks and nearly as many years, Linkin Park's emotional and stylistic evolution is succinctly captured, igniting nostalgia and long-dormant feelings through the band's enduring power and Bennington's immortal voice.
Chris Bellman manages to make all these tracks from different albums sound bold together, with plenty of warm bass and no EQ setting to make one track sound dull from another. Stellar sound quality aside, Papercuts is a firm assessment for fans to get rekindled with this music. Being an adolescent when these tracks first came out, I couldn't help but smile as they reminded me of a simpler time in life. This compilation 100% serves its purpose for any Linkin Park fan, old and new.
