FAQ

Is this the original pressing?
No. Hybrid Theory was first released in 2000. This record is a later European reissue in a gatefold sleeve with the original twelve-track running order.

What does “New & factory sealed” mean?
The record is unplayed and still in the manufacturer’s original shrink wrap, so it carries no Goldmine grade.

Which singles came from Hybrid Theory?
The singles were One Step Closer, Crawling, Papercut and In The End. In The End became the band's most successful single of that era.

Do you have more Linkin Park records?
Yes, for example Linkin Park – Meteora on gold and red splatter vinyl or Linkin Park – Minutes To Midnight. More titles are in our Metal collection.
