The band states that Living Things combines elements from their previous four studio albums to create a new sound. They stated they finally felt they were in "familiar territory" and "comfortable in [their] own skin" after years of experimentation that resulted in their two previous studio albums, Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns.[1][2][3] Living Things was chosen as the album's title because of the numerous personal topics on the album.[4]

The lead single for the album, "Burn It Down", was sent to radio and released to digital music retailers on April 16, 2012. Living Things debuted at number one on Billboard 200 with sales of 223,000 copies in the United States in its opening week. The second single for the album, "Lost in the Echo", was released on October 5, 2012. The third single "Powerless" was released on October 31, 2012. The fourth and final single for the album, "Castle of Glass", was released in its physical format on February 1, 2013. The album was certified Platinum by the RIAA in August 2017.

Background and recording

The recording of Living Things started in March 2011 and ended in April 2012.[5] In June 2011, lead singer Chester Bennington revealed to Kerrang! that Linkin Park had begun working on new material for their fifth album. He explained, "We've been working on a new record for the past two months. The music is great and we're well ahead of where we're expecting to be. There aren't a whole lot of noises going on, but there are a lot of good songs."[6]

The band's co-lead vocalist and rapper, Mike Shinoda, and Rick Rubin served as producers for the album. "Typically we'll have a once-a-week meeting to go listen to the songs that they're coming up with and talk about them. For so early in the project, they are much further along than they have been on the last two albums we did. On A Thousand Suns there were still a lot of irons in the fire. We knew, 'OK, we can't do this forever. Let's leave this batch and we'll come back and address it when we start up again'", Rubin said.[7] Bennington explained that Rubin "gives us spaces to just be ourselves and to work on our own...He gives us a clear and concise description of what he likes...He would like us to push ourselves into a more fresh take on that particular sound."[8] He also stated that Shinoda guides the band through the process of each song, and called the team-up of Shinoda and Rubin "our golden ticket."[8]

In July 2011, Bennington told Rolling Stone that Linkin Park aims to produce a new album every eighteen months, and that he would be shocked if a new album did not come out in 2012. The band continues to record and produce new material even while touring. Bennington commented on Linkin Park's schedule, stating, "Touring for two years is excruciating. When we would tour for two years even the most resilient person in the band, at the end of that, was fucking miserable."[9] He further elaborated on their ideas in an interview with MTV saying, "We do have a really great head start. We've got some great music, some good ideas. The creativity has continued to flow for us for the last few years, consistently."[10] He later revealed in another interview in September 2011 that the band was still in the beginning phases of the next album, saying "We just kind of began. We like to keep the creative juices flowing, so we try to keep that going all the time...we like the direction that we're going in."[11] Shinoda told Complex that they spent a year in making the album,[12] as well as elaborating on the album's sound, saying that "It doesn't lose any of the creativity of the newer stuff and it brings in the energy of the older stuff. It's kind of a comprehensive sound. I feel like we've been able to take all the stuff we've learned on the way and put it all together in each song and still keep it fresh and forward-thinking."[12] Shinoda told HitFix that the process of the album "felt like a drug trip...we were looking to redefine everything."[13]

Shinoda spoke to Co.Create about the album's art, saying that it will "blow [the fans] away...the average person is not going to be able to look at it and go, I understand that that's completely new, like not just the image but the way they made the image is totally new. So there's going to be that."[14] The band underwent 360 degree body scans for numerous lyric videos and artwork for the album.[15] The album's art was released on April 16, 2012, along with the album's first single, "Burn It Down".[16]

Composition

In an interview featured in the March 21, 2012 issue of Kerrang! magazine, Bennington stated that the band has returned to more "familiar" territory on their new record, saying "with this [new] album, we've incorporated a lot of guitar work with big choruses and the heavier electronic stuff to give it that really big wall of sound feeling without getting too metal. This will be more familiar to people than A Thousand Suns was, where we were like 'Fuck it, we're just going to go bonkers." Bennington also said that the new album's lyrics would be personal and avoid being political, adding "We've been writing a lot about relationships."[2][17] Bennington and Shinoda echoed similar statements during an interview with Spin, with the former commenting that "We now know we have the skills and the tools to take those ideas and make them into what we're actually looking for, as opposed to getting into it and discovering that it just sounds really nü-metal. That's always going to be gross to us, but we can take elements of that and reinvent the vibe, make it new and fresh."[1] The two previewed five songs from the album, as well as announced that they had collaborated with Canadian musician Owen Pallett.[1] The vocalists also stated that they have adopted numerous influences and topics for the album, particularly about people.[1]

Bennington told Live 105 that the band is "embracing everything that [they] have done in the past," taking the "best pieces" of their previous four albums and "smash[ing] them together into this new record."[8] Shinoda explained in an interview with NME that the album would not return to their nu metal sound, however he assured that the record "gets back to our roots and it's captured a feeling that we haven't gone after in many years."[18] He also spoke similar statements to Bennington about combining elements of all four albums, saying, "We've learned so much from all the albums we've done, so we've taken everything we've learned and mixed it all into one."[3] Shinoda stated that the album is more "rap-centric" compared to their previous two albums.[19] Shinoda told Musique Mag that the band wanted the album to be "more energetic [and] song-based", as opposed to their previous album, A Thousand Suns, which was more of a concept record.[20]

The band had numerous influences and inspirations for Living Things. Shinoda told Rolling Stone that "Castle of Glass", "Skin to Bone" and "Roads Untraveled" contained folk music influenced by the works of Bob Dylan, as well as the inspirations of Dylan.[21] In the seventh track "Victimized", which Rolling Stone described as "the band's most aggressive track in years",[22] was influenced by punk rock bands such as Pennywise and Dirty Rotten Imbeciles.[20] Shinoda noted the minimal content of numerous punk rock songs attributed to the short length of "Victimized"; bassist Dave "Phoenix" Farrell noted that the song's working title, "Battle Axe", "which to me is..what that song is; it's just this big 'crack' and then you're out."[20] Like the band's first two albums, the penultimate track ("Tinfoil") is an instrumental.[23] Brad Delson, the band's guitarist, has vocals in the tenth track "Until It Breaks", which was Delson's idea.[20] The album explores the genres alternative rock, electronic rock and rap rock.[24][25]

Upon its release, the album was met with mixed to positive reviews from critics. According to the aggregate review website Metacritic, Living Things holds a score of 60 out of 100 based on 15 collected reviews, indicating "mixed to average reviews."[65]

Chad Childers of Loudwire stated that "the album as a whole continues to expand their world-view writing like what listeners got with A Thousand Suns, but it also adds more of the anger that was prevalent in their earliest work, Hybrid Theory."[70] Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic declared that "there is definition to their structure, some of the choruses catch hold without too much effort -- but this album remains one of sustained mood, not individual moments" and concludes that the album is "a fitting soundtrack for aging rap-rockers who are comfortable in their skin but restless at heart".[66] The Guardian writer Dave Simpson observed that "Living Things is more personal than A Thousand Suns, with underlying themes of recovery from traumatic experiences. The exception, Burn It Down, delivers an antiwar sentiment via Depeche Mode-y electro-bounce, while the similarly standout Roads Untraveled is an eerie confessional ballad", and concluded that "Living Things would have benefited from more of such adventure, but they still sound like a band enjoying an unexpected second life".[69] Johan Wippsson of Melodic wrote that the album is "too little too pop-oriented and made for the charts than before. The synthesizers are a bit too intent to Coldplay mode, but assume that the band felt it was time to conquer the charts again."[75] PopMatters' Jordan Blum concluded that “Living Things is a very good entry that’s simply not as special as its precursor."[73] Phil Mongredien from The Observer comments on their refusal to play it safe and praises their boldness.[72]

Tim Grierson at About.com stated that Living Things is "a straightforward collection that plays to their rap-rock strengths, and while it’s often musically engaging, these 12 songs don’t have enough cumulative impact. As a result, the record ends up being a diverting experience rather than an arresting one."[25] At The A.V. Club, Evan Rytlewski commented that the band "can dial down (or turn back up) the heaviness all it wants, recruit the most Grammy-proven producers, and keep current with the latest electronic textures, but those moves can only take Linkin Park so far when its songs have all the emotional range of an MMA bout".[67] Another mixed review from Hamish MacBain at NME stated that "...their foray into said genre here is restricted to the three minutes of ‘Castle of Glass’. The rest is... well, to be fair, they've obviously been listening to a bit of Skrillex, and thus the heavy guitar thud of yore has been replaced by a new, heavy electronic thud, but that aside it's largely the usual semi-hilarious histrionica to which we’ve become accustomed." MacBain also added that, in the sub-description of the review, the album is "A predictable earache".[71]

ReferencesBackground and recording EditThe recording of Living Things started in March 2011 and ended in April 2012 5 In June 2011 lead singer Chester Bennington revealed to Kerrang that Linkin Park had begun working on new material for their fifth album He explained We ve been working on a new record for the past two months The music is great and we re well ahead of where we re expecting to be There aren t a whole lot of noises going on but there are a lot of good songs 6 The band s co lead vocalist and rapper Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin served as producers for the album Typically we ll have a once a week meeting to go listen to the songs that they re coming up with and talk about them For so early in the project they are much further along than they have been on the last two albums we did On A Thousand Suns there were still a lot of irons in the fire We knew OK we can t do this forever Let s leave this batch and we ll come back and address it when we start up again Rubin said 7 Bennington explained that Rubin gives us spaces to just be ourselves and to work on our own He gives us a clear and concise description of what he likes He would like us to push ourselves into a more fresh take on that particular sound 8 He also stated that Shinoda guides the band through the process of each song and called the team up of Shinoda and Rubin our golden ticket 8 In July 2011 Bennington told Rolling Stone that Linkin Park aims to produce a new album every eighteen months and that he would be shocked if a new album did not come out in 2012 The band continues to record and produce new material even while touring Bennington commented on Linkin Park s schedule stating Touring for two years is excruciating When we would tour for two years even the most resilient person in the band at the end of that was fucking miserable 9 He further elaborated on their ideas in an interview with MTV saying We do have a really great head start We ve got some great music some good ideas The creativity has continued to flow for us for the last few years consistently 10 He later revealed in another interview in September 2011 that the band was still in the beginning phases of the next album saying We just kind of began We like to keep the creative juices flowing so we try to keep that going all the time we like the direction that we re going in 11 Shinoda told Complex that they spent a year in making the album 12 as well as elaborating on the album s sound saying that It doesn t lose any of the creativity of the newer stuff and it brings in the energy of the older stuff It s kind of a comprehensive sound I feel like we ve been able to take all the stuff we ve learned on the way and put it all together in each song and still keep it fresh and forward thinking 12 Shinoda told HitFix that the process of the album felt like a drug trip we were looking to redefine everything 13 Shinoda spoke to Co Create about the album s art saying that it will blow the fans away the average person is not going to be able to look at it and go I understand that that s completely new like not just the image but the way they made the image is totally new So there s going to be that 14 The band underwent 360 degree body scans for numerous lyric videos and artwork for the album 15 The album s art was released on April 16 2012 along with the album s first single Burn It Down 16 Composition EditIn an interview featured in the March 21 2012 issue of Kerrang magazine Bennington stated that the band has returned to more familiar territory on their new record saying with this new album we ve incorporated a lot of guitar work with big choruses and the heavier electronic stuff to give it that really big wall of sound feeling without getting too metal This will be more familiar to people than A Thousand Suns was where we were like Fuck it we re just going to go bonkers Bennington also said that the new album s lyrics would be personal and avoid being political adding We ve been writing a lot about relationships 2 17 Bennington and Shinoda echoed similar statements during an interview with Spin with the former commenting that We now know we have the skills and the tools to take those ideas and make them into what we re actually looking for as opposed to getting into it and discovering that it just sounds really nu metal That s always going to be gross to us but we can take elements of that and reinvent the vibe make it new and fresh 1 The two previewed five songs from the album as well as announced that they had collaborated with Canadian musician Owen Pallett 1 The vocalists also stated that they have adopted numerous influences and topics for the album particularly about people 1 Bennington told Live 105 that the band is embracing everything that they have done in the past taking the best pieces of their previous four albums and smash ing them together into this new record 8 Shinoda explained in an interview with NME that the album would not return to their nu metal sound however he assured that the record gets back to our roots and it s captured a feeling that we haven t gone after in many years 18 He also spoke similar statements to Bennington about combining elements of all four albums saying We ve learned so much from all the albums we ve done so we ve taken everything we ve learned and mixed it all into one 3 Shinoda stated that the album is more rap centric compared to their previous two albums 19 Shinoda told Musique Mag that the band wanted the album to be more energetic and song based as opposed to their previous album A Thousand Suns which was more of a concept record 20 The band had numerous influences and inspirations for Living Things Shinoda told Rolling Stone that Castle of Glass Skin to Bone and Roads Untraveled contained folk music influenced by the works of Bob Dylan as well as the inspirations of Dylan 21 In the seventh track Victimized which Rolling Stone described as the band s most aggressive track in years 22 was influenced by punk rock bands such as Pennywise and Dirty Rotten Imbeciles 20 Shinoda noted the minimal content of numerous punk rock songs attributed to the short length of Victimized bassist Dave Phoenix Farrell noted that the song s working title Battle Axe which to me is what that song is it s just this big crack and then you re out 20 Like the band s first two albums the penultimate track Tinfoil is an instrumental 23 Brad Delson the band s guitarist has vocals in the tenth track Until It Breaks which was Delson s idea 20 The album explores the genres alternative rock electronic rock and rap rock 24 25 Release and promotion Edit Linkin Park embarked with American rock band Incubus pictured and Mutemath on the 2012 Honda Civic Tour The band toured with Incubus

67 Entertainment WeeklyB 68 The Guardian 69 Loudwire 70 NME5 10 71 The Observer 72 PopMatters6 10 73 Rolling Stone 74 Upon its release the album was met with mixed to positive reviews from critics According to the aggregate review website Metacritic Living Things holds a score of 60 out of 100 based on 15 collected reviews indicating mixed to average reviews 65 Chad Childers of Loudwire stated that the album as a whole continues to expand their world view writing like what listeners got with A Thousand Suns but it also adds more of the anger that was prevalent in their earliest work Hybrid Theory 70 Stephen Thomas Erlewine from AllMusic declared that there is definition to their structure some of the choruses catch hold without too much effort but this album remains one of sustained mood not individual moments and concludes that the album is a fitting soundtrack for aging rap rockers who are comfortable in their skin but restless at heart 66 The Guardian writer Dave Simpson observed that Living Things is more personal than A Thousand Suns with underlying themes of recovery from traumatic experiences The exception Burn It Down delivers an antiwar sentiment via Depeche Mode y electro bounce while the similarly standout Roads Untraveled is an eerie confessional ballad and concluded that Living Things would have benefited from more of such adventure but they still sound like a band enjoying an unexpected second life 69 Johan Wippsson of Melodic wrote that the album is too little too pop oriented and made for the charts than before The synthesizers are a bit too intent to Coldplay mode but assume that the band felt it was time to conquer the charts again 75 PopMatters Jordan Blum concluded that Living Things is a very good entry that s simply not as special as its precursor 73 Phil Mongredien from The Observer comments on their refusal to play it safe and praises their boldness 72 Tim Grierson at About com stated that Living Things is a straightforward collection that plays to their rap rock strengths and while it s often musically engaging these 12 songs don t have enough cumulative impact As a result the record ends up being a diverting experience rather than an arresting one 25 At The A V Club Evan Rytlewski commented that the band can dial down or turn back up the heaviness all it wants recruit the most Grammy proven producers and keep current with the latest electronic textures but those moves can only take Linkin Park so far when its songs have all the emotional range of an MMA bout 67 Another mixed review from Hamish MacBain at NME stated that their foray into said genre here is restricted to the three minutes of Castle of Glass The rest is well to be fair they ve obviously been listening to a bit of Skrillex and thus the heavy guitar thud of yore has been replaced by a new heavy electronic thud but that aside it s largely the usual semi hilarious histrionica to which we ve become accustomed MacBain also added that in the sub description of the review the album is A predictable earache 71 Track listing EditAll lyrics are written by Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda all music is composed by Linkin Park No
