Easily my favorite Linkin Park song, Breaking The Habit comes from the Meteora album. The song was written by Mike Shinoda and was about his friends drug addiction. The song was written as a narration from the friend, and for a while Chester Bennington (rip king <3) was unable to perform the song because of how emotional he would get since he felt the lives of him and the narrator paralleled. Everything from the amazingly somber and emotionally driven vocal performance from Chester, to the simple and catchy guitar riff, to the outstanding mixing and turntable work, to the amazing music video made by Studio Gonzo (with the animation supervised by Kazuto Nakazawa, who directed the animated segments in Kill Bill vol.1). This song is just so perfect to me.

Easy 1000/10
