Yes, At That Time, To Me It Was The Coolest Sleeve Ever. So I Bought It And Turned Up The Volume And Was Very Disappointed To See That Its Not A Rap Album At All!

Of all the songs on Hybrid Theory, I'm surprised this one isn't more known. It's fast, it's angsty, and it features some of Chester's best screaming of the time. Another fine representation of the Hybrid Theory era.
