Formed in 1996, Linkin Park rose to international fame with their debut studio album, Hybrid Theory (2000), which became certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Released during the peak of the nu metal scene, the album's singles' heavy airplay on MTV led the singles "One Step Closer", "Crawling" and "In the End" all to chart highly on the US Mainstream Rock chart. The lattermost also crossed over to the nation's Billboard Hot 100. Their second album, Meteora (2003), continued the band's success. The band explored experimental sounds on their third album, Minutes to Midnight (2007). By the end of the decade, Linkin Park was among the most successful and popular rock acts.
The band continued to explore a wider variation of musical types on their fourth album, A Thousand Suns (2010), layering their music with more electronic sounds. The band's fifth album, Living Things (2012), combined musical elements from all of their previous records. Their sixth album, The Hunting Party (2014), returned to a heavier rock sound, and their seventh album, One More Light (2017), was a substantially more pop-oriented record. Linkin Park went on a hiatus when longtime lead vocalist Bennington died in July 2017. In April 2022, Shinoda revealed the band was neither working on new music nor planning on touring for the foreseeable future.
Linkin Park is among the best-selling bands of the 21st century and the world's best-selling music artists, having sold over 100 million records worldwide. They have won two Grammy Awards, six American Music Awards, two Billboard Music Awards, four MTV Video Music Awards, 10 MTV Europe Music Awards and three World Music Awards. In 2003, MTV2 named Linkin Park the sixth-greatest band of the music video era and the third-best of the new millennium. Billboard ranked Linkin Park No. 19 on the Best Artists of the Decade list. In 2012, the band was voted as the greatest artist of the 2000s in a Bracket Madness poll on VH1. In 2014, the band was declared as "The Biggest Rock Band in the World Right Now" by Kerrang!.

PB N' Jellyfish
Linkin Park Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Uh, this song's about jellyfish
And their bellyfish
Ain't no foolyfish
I don't droolyfish
Goes like this:
Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
Peanut butter jellyfish
Put me onto your sandwich
Said jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish
My friends are fish and they go to school
They think I'm crazy and they think I'm cool
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish
Jelly, jelly, jellyfish
When you squeeze me, I go squish
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish
Got no eyes, I got no head
I've got no house, I got no bed
'Cause I'm a jellyfish
I'm a jellyfish
Jellyfish
"Pb N' Jellyfish" is a light-hearted and playful song by Linkin Park that is all about jellyfish, and it’s one of the few songs by the band that strays from their usual rock style. The song is written from the perspective of a jellyfish, and the lyrics are quite straightforward, highlighting the unique features of jellyfish, like in lines like “Got no eyes, I got no head, I’ve got no house, I got no bed". The song is not meant to be taken seriously but instead to be a fun and catchy tune that can be enjoyed by people of all ages.
The song opens with a simple drumbeat, followed by singer Mike Shinoda's voice saying "A-one, a-two, a-one, two, three, four", which reminds us of a conductor at the beginning of a symphony performance. The melody of the song is simple and upbeat, and the chorus features a catchy repetition of the words “jelly, jelly, jellyfish, when you squeeze me, I go squish,” reminding us of a nursery rhyme.
Interestingly, the song was not included in any of Linkin Park's official released albums but was instead featured on the "Underground 10" album, which was released only to members of the Linkin Park Underground fan club. The song was also played live by the band during their "A Thousand Suns" tour in 2011.
