The type of music 30 Seconds to Mars and Linkin Park play is alternative rock. They both play music that is both emotional to the story of their lives. Also being able to sing in an emotional way, which gives their fans a since of connection between the singers and the fans. One song by 30 Seconds to Mars that I like the most is, From Yesterday because it makes me think of the past a lot of things that has happened in my life and the way things have changed today. Another one song is King and Queens, this one I usually like listening to when I go on trips or traveling. It makes you think of the future and it seems like a very inspirational song. 30 seconds to mars compared to other artist such as linkin park is almost in the same area. 30 seconds to mars has a little more emotion into their songs and they are not as much as metal as linkin park is, in some of their songs. The alternative rock artist compared to other artist such as lady gaga or disturbed, they are very far apart from each other. Some of the critics do not like the spacey rock that goes into the lyrics into some of 30 seconds to mars’ songs. I think that it’s pretty cool that they incorporate something different with the same genre of music, but just make it a little more unique than the majority of other artist. For this reason most of their songs are very easy to relate to and you can listen to them over and over without becoming bored. Listening to music is most definitely worth our time and money. I think the part that because to extreme may not be worth the time or money, but for the majority part I think it is. Music is used to soothe the mind, to help with a problem in a person’s life, and is also used for medical purposes. So yes it is worth it.
