Linkin Park
Linkin Park - By Myself live at Rock am Ring 2001
In March 2001, Linkin Park was still riding the wave of their groundbreaking debut album, "Hybrid Theory," which had been released just a few months earlier in October 2000. This album not only launched them into the limelight but also defined a new era of nu-metal, blending rock, hip-hop, and electronic elements. Their energetic live performance at Rock am Ring proved the album's anthemic tracks resonated with fans, as seen in this recording of "By Myself." It's interesting to note that before this performance, Linkin Park was relatively new on the scene, quickly gaining a substantial following with their raw emotion and catchy hooks. The scene in Milan would soon become a pivotal moment in solidifying their reputation, showcasing their ability to connect with audiences through their powerful sound and lyrics.
