I know a lot of people didn’t like it because it was a departure from their earlier style but I honestly think A Thousand Suns was their peak. I don’t even like all the songs on it, but each one was so obviously crafted with care and intent, and you could tell they were really all-in on it. I think the exploration of their talents through a post-apocalyptic concept album really challenged and brought out the best in them.

I miss Chester still :(
