Linkin park 15.7 billion views on YouTube
Spotify rank 54 vs 144, both obviously very influential bands but there's a significant gap in popularity.

A lot of that is also influenced by the bands being a generation apart and Linkin Park having a much larger portion of their time in the YouTube era.
In fact I'd say most of that is influenced by timing. Oasis sold 75 million records, Linkin Park sold 100. It's not a 5 to 1 gap here.
