Stuff like this kind of bothers me. Just because the music isn't necessarily quality or to your taste doesn't mean it didn't have an impact. NSYNC and Backstreet Boys definitely had a massive impact on music and the industry as a whole. Whether or not it was a GOOD impact is up for debate.
I would think its a stretch to put LP in that category, although I didn't know much about the industry during their peak, but I was definitely one of the only kids who listened to them regularly. And anyone else who did likely heard them first from me. I loved Linkin Park as a teenager. Hybrid Theory didn't leave my discman really, but I don't think I bought any other LP albums. Their stuff all started to sound the same and got too poppy. But combining Linkin Park with my love of DBZ and all the fan videos that people made with DBZ highlights and LP sound tracks were awesome to me. I'll check out the album and see how I like it.
