Reanimation
Reanimation is Linkin Park's first remix album, a reworking of Hybrid Theory, the band's 2000 debut. It draws on that record's songs, including its bonus tracks, and was recorded while the band were out touring the original album. Mike Shinoda produced it, and Mark "Spike" Stent handled the mixing.
It came out on 30 July 2002 through Warner Bros. Records, and it sits between Hybrid Theory and the follow-up studio album Meteora. The styling of the title, [REAИIMATIOИ], hints at the rebuilt feel of the project. Its mix of breakbeat, hip hop and alternative metal gives familiar songs a different shape, which makes it a good listen if you know the debut well and fancy hearing it turned inside out. It is also the fourth-best-selling remix album of all time.
