One of the other things I'd like to mention is that Linkin Park's popularity hasn't really gone anywhere. They're still seeing strong sales off M2M, even though the record is pretty lackluster. Their sales outdid Hybrid Theory, and it's impossible to judge Meteora within an early time period, so that's hard to nail down. However, M2M has had as many singles that have charted well as Meteora's singles.
I'm not even gonna look at Limp Bizkit, but reallly, I think this illustrates the point.
