People?s opinions of Linkin Park are bound to be divided. After Limp Bizkit opened nu-metal to a wider commercial market, Linkin Park were certainly one of the first bands to capitalise. Some see them as a sell out (boy band with nu-metal trappings), while others no doubt like them for much the same reason!
I think Hybrid Theory was a great debut album, setting Linkin Park ahead of their peers and deservedly selling bucket loads. My cynical side says they?re milking it a little though. Over six million sales of the long awaited follow-up Meteora, yet they?ve still felt the need for a remix album and now live CD/DVD package in that time? Still LiveInTexas coincides with a UK tour and comes just in time for Christmas, so maybe it?s to be expected.
Life InTexas is technically a CD with bonus DVD I believe. It comes in a special 2CD ...

My eyes didn't leave the TV screen for one single second throughout the film, as I was totally and utterly engrossed.
Travis is a man who has somehow estranged himself from his family. A doctor at a desert outpost clinic discovers Travis when he collapses after entering the place and had fainted whilst attempting to eat piles of ice cubes. The doctor manages to contact ...

Advantages: Ry Cooder soundtrack. Disadvantages: A bit too long.
***INTRO***
This film produced and directed by Wim Wenders' is probably one of most well known, critically acclaimed, and successful movie, winning a number of international prizes including the Cannes Palm D'or (1984), Bafta, Berlin Silver Bear, French Film Critic's prize). Screen play by playwright Sam Sheppard soundtrack by Ry Cooder. I saw a promotional copy that at 147 minutes was a little on the long side. The film is suitable only for person's 15 years and over.
***THE STORY***
This haunting story turned road movie tells the tale of Travis, a man lost in his own in his own private hell. I quote from the cover.
" Presumed dead for four years, he reappears from the desert on the Mexican border, world - weary and an amnesiac. He traces his brother Wait who is bringing up Hunter, his seven - year - old son, his ex - wife ...
