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!.

Linkin Park Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
ver seres queridos con lagrimas en rostros
ver a tu compás en cajas dormidos
y las noticias llenas de homicidios
madre espera que regrese su hijo
ya tiene dos años desaparecido
todavía no nace y ya no tiene padre
una hermosa niña vas a tener compadre
que desde el cielo le mandas un beso
andamos en la mierda y no nos arrugamos
arrieros somos en el camino andamos
salgale a la calle pura vida malandra
en la tele no salen cosas macabras
te tapan la mente con pura mierda
y afuera encuentras cuerpos sin cabeza
que pare esto nadie lo sabe
dime que culpa tuvieron mis carnales.
(DOER)
Es cierto que en las barrios hay violencia
también es cierto que existe la delincuencia
que los werquillos de la plaza siempre wacharan la tranza
y que hoy crecimos y sabemos lo que pasa
a un carnal se lo llevaron las balas
y pa que digo que no, si, si me cala
y que en la calle enfierraron a otro compa
por andar bien punta en la bronca
de morro en las pandillas loqueras y las riñas
esos tiempos pasados recuerdo aquellos dias
ausentes carnales los llevo aqui en mi vida
la parte chida de mi loca vida
das con honor para el que se lo merece
que dieron frente sin ser engruese
y que hoy por hoy los seguimos recordando
y en su memoria seguimos rifando.

Donde quiera que estén los que han caído
este rap les va pa ustedes con honor.
Donde quiera que estén los que han caído
este rap les va pa ustedes con honor.
(GUSY TRANZA)
Quisiera despertar de esta pinche pesadilla
todo fuera maravilla época de pancho villa
por mas que le busques por mas que le rasques
di me donde quien en mexico no hay desmadre
carnales de mi barrio que se fueron
y se me adelantaron despedida con aviso no hubo de ellos
y yo sigo rifando sigo representando
por mas que este caliente en mi barrio y en tu barrio
solo se que yo tu y aquel han perdido un carnalito
pero que le vas a hacer
si te gusta todo el vicio si te gusta vivir recio
tan difícil la pinche perra vida
ahora pagamos el precio.
(ANTUAN)
Hay amor hay dolor con respeto pa el cabrón
aunque creas o no un caído me enseño
a saber que un homeboy no muere el dia de hoy
por hoy me doy un baysa y este canto con honor
simón, subale y rivivalo
aunque no estés conmigo pero se que estas con dios
cuando la grabo nunca la murió
el vicio de un adicto amigo mio me enseño
y sabes muy bien que un día yo te alcanzare
me caeré y quedare me voy tendido como ve
cuando ande por tu calle sabe que recordare
y que estés donde quiera que tu estés
aun compa caído grifo aquí lo levante
tristeza familias de monterrey
aquí los acompaño fumando un gran pésame.

The lyrics of Linkin Park's song Under Attack tell a story of the violence and crime that exist in certain neighborhoods in Mexico. The first verse describes the pain of losing loved ones to violence and how it affects families who are left behind. The second verse acknowledges the prevalence of violence and crime, and how it has affected the lives of people in the community. The third verse expresses the rapper's desire to escape the nightmare of violence and crime, but also recognizes that the vices that contribute to the problem are difficult to overcome.
Throughout the song, there is a sense of mourning for those who have been lost to violence, and a sense of solidarity with others who have experienced similar tragedies. The repeated chorus, "Donde quiera que estén los que han caído este rap les va pa ustedes con honor" ("Wherever those who have fallen may be, this rap is for you with honor") emphasizes the theme of honoring and remembering those who have died.

I'm from Iraq, and I did get goosebumps, these people where humans, they bleed too, what the terrorists did that day should never be forgiven, Rest in peace to those who fell, I read some comments bellow, whether it was a conspiracy, a mass murder, a crime is a crime, Whoever did this lead to the war in Iraq, where not 1000 but over 200,000 innocent people died. funny thing is, not one of the terrorists was Iraqi. and finally I leave you with these words...Linkin Park, you rock!
@tailsprowerfan2729
I know it’s 11 years later but thank you
I also agree that what w bush did to Iraq was very wrong but I couldn’t do anything about it since I was a kid
