The song unfolds as a balancing act of vulnerability and expectation, of altruistic self-expression and the vanity of wanting to be seen, or even adored. “Working for the Knife" is her brooding, melancholic first major single back from this respite, and acts as an incisive warning about how much of our identity we give to our life’s greatest undertakings, and who we’re giving it up for. After a long and grueling world tour supporting her breakthrough album Be the Cowboy, the singer took time off in 2019, saying she needed a break from the “constant churn” of performance. Mitski would like to have a word on that. It’s appropriately symbol and fittingly comfortable.The saying goes that if you do what you love, you’ll never have to work a day in your life.

Just, a normal subway tunnel for the most part, with the Hybrid Theory cover art painted on the floor. Instead of standing on a neon highway with abstract shapes twisting and pulsing in the distance, you’re in a subway tunnel. One change thought that I loved, since it helps make the tracks fit in even better, is the replacement stage. Papercut could pass too if I’m splitting hairs. I’d have gladly left off Given Up to get Crawling, personally. That track is also from Hybrid Theory, the album that’s being celebrated here, and is the 6th most-popular song on Spotify from Linkin Park - just after 4 songs that made the list and the Numb / Encore remix. The biggest and most obvious omission, other than more recent hits such as Burn it Down, is the absence of Crawling. Some other gems like Faint and What I’ve Done made the list too, much to my delight. The obvious ones like In The End, Numb, and One Step Closer all made the cut. If you’re a Linkin Park fan, you can’t deny that’s a great list of tracks. Other than perhaps Bleed it Out due to its short length, or One Step Closer for its heavy rhythmic repetition, all of the songs are quite tough by my standards. That being said, it’s a consistent level of difficulty across all of the new music. I recorded footage using No Fail just to ensure the entire songs got captured.Įventually I came around and could stumble through reasonably well, but the massive leap in difficulty between Hard and Expert here felt weird. Flip it to Expert? I couldn’t even pass any of them for a while. Yet, I was able to hop in and get an S-rank on Hard for most of the tracks on my very first try. Like I explained before, it has been a long time since I played Beat Saber. On top of that, the difficulty curve feels a bit off. It’s the biggest track list to date, but still a bummer not to get some alternative versions of the more popular ones like Numb and In The End. It’s just standard front-facing only, five difficulties each, for a total of 55 new beat maps. First of all, there are no 360 or 180 levels as far as I can tell for any of the 11 new songs. I’ve got two issues with the way this music pack is handled. Something about the rhythm, cadence, and tone feels right despite the lack of electronic sounds.

I think there’s a good reason why several Linkin Park songs are consistently popular on unofficial custom song download site, Beat Saver. Linkin Park is one of my favorite bands and I’ll never forget the exact moment I found out Chester Bennington had died.īut regardless of that, the song selection feels like a perfect fit for Beat Saber. Admittedly, I have a lot of personal connection to this music.

Despite it being past 4AM on a Sunday night / Monday morning I still found myself literally jumping up and down and head banging throughout many of the tracks.

After playing one and finally getting the rhythm down, I didn’t feel any sort of surge of adrenaline when it was over. For example, the Monstercat pack is extremely good from a quality perspective, but I’d never heard any of those songs before. The problem with most Beat Saber tracks from its original music packs and most of the DLC that has followed is that it all just kind of sounds the same.
