Rating metrics:
Outliers can be removed when calculating a mean average to dampen the effects of ratings outside the normal distribution. This figure is provided as the trimmed mean. A high standard deviation can be legitimate, but can sometimes indicate 'gaming' is occurring. Consider a simplified example* of an item receiving ratings of 100, 50, & 0. The mean average rating would be 50. However, ratings of 55, 50 & 45 could also result in the same average. The second average might be more trusted because there is more consensus around a particular rating (a lower deviation).
(*In practice, some albums can have several thousand ratings)
This album has a Bayesian average rating of 68.3/100, a mean average of 68.2/100, and a trimmed mean (excluding outliers) of 68.3/100. The standard deviation for this album is 22.6.

A classic follow-up album that proved that Linkin Park was no fluke has been on the US Billboard 200 albums charts for a total of 194 weeks.
Definitely the best Linkin Park album and my favorite of theirs. I have this 8x certified platinum album on vinyl and it sounds incredible on vinyl format.
This is the first Linkin Park I've gotten. Took a few listens but it's growing on me more every time. The genre blending and dual vocals they do well. The formula of their song structure is similar on many tracks though. But that's easy to overlook. Decent album. I like it.
It's not quite up to the level of Hybrid Theory, but it's a very good follow-up. Linkin Park proved they are not just a one-hit wonder with this album. My highlights are Faint, Lying From You and Breaking The Habit. There are no weak links on the album - consistently very good.
I'm one of those people who much prefers Meteora over Hybrid Theory. Hybrid Theory is a great album, but it has a few skippable tracks for me especially in the second half. Every track on this album however is at least good if not great. The album took all the best elements from Hybrid Theory and packaged it into a great less-than-40-minute album. "Don't Stay" is an awesome opener. "Somewhere I Belong" has a great chorus. "Lying From You" is one of their heaviest songs and I love Chester's screams. "Hit the Floor" has some heavy guitar work on it. "Easier to Run" is a pretty decent song, but nowhere near my favourite. "Faint" is more akin to standard hard rock/rap rock than nu metal, but I love the song. "Figure.09" is my least favourite song on the album, but it's still a solid track.
"Breaking the Habit" is a goddamn masterpiece. My favourite Linkin Park song and one of my all-time favourite songs. The lyrics paint a beautiful picture on the struggles of depression and addiction, and Chester gives his best vocal performance on this song. "From the Inside" is a good track though I'm surprised they chose this as a single. "Nobody's Listening" is a fun hip-hip flavoured song, which is a reprieve from all the angst. "Session" is another great showcase for Mr. Hahn and a good sequel to "A Cure for the Itch" from their debut. And while I wouldn't have ended the album with this song, "Numb" is a classic song for a reason.
People often call this the brother album to Hybrid Theory, but I feel it's a bigger progression than that. For me it has more soul than Hybrid Theory.. and the words come from Chester's heart across much of the record.
Breaking The Habit is a masterpiece.

Yep, I also think it is better than Hybrid theory. Still pretty meh, but both Breaking the habit and Numb are fantastic tracks.

Much better than Hybrid Theory.
This really gets a lot of flack. Just because it plays on the radio doesn't mean its bad. It's great!
