Mr.BobertzMar 26, 2003It seems like this is a sad attempt to cash in before LP's 15 minutes of fame is up. A few (key word: few) of the mixes are good. I especially loved the remix of One Step Closer. Others had potential but were killed seconds in. Hardcore fans would like it, but I was disapointed LP would stoop this low. Put the good ones as bonus tracks on a cd or just forget about, I say.

MarcWAug 24, 2003This is an album to cash in on the success of 'Hybrid Theory', plain and simple. The remixes of the tracks from the debut album is generally uninspired and seems to be really hastily put together.

On the one hand, the results are more varied than the monochromatic ''Hybrid Theory.'' On the other hand, the remixes at times obliterate one of the band's most distinctive characteristics -- the vocal interplay between singer Chester Bennington and MC Mike Shinoda, a blend that allows their pop tendencies to poke through from time to time.
-
The dominant sound is of flickering sequencers and heavy-handed synth-pomp which showcases Linkin Park's keen interest in the work of Depeche Mode, but also often leaves them sounding about as cutting-edge and dangerous as Jesus Jones.
-
The music isn't exactly groundbreaking, and none of the remixes improve on the Hybrid Theory originals, but the boyish energy of Reanimation has its own appeal, and it's not too far emotionally from the tried-so-hard spirit of "In the End."
