Reanimation is an actually awesome album imo, no secret shame there.
I never minded Hybrid Theory or Meteora really but Reanimation was not only really good almost top to bottom, but it was back before everybody was doing that kind of remix album inbetween full ones. And they picked basically perfect guests for every single song, when they picked rap guys they redid the track to fit them instead of just handing them a bridge or something to fill.
I liked Fort Minor too except the song ABC/ESPN/EA played into the ground which wasn't a fave off that album to begin in.
I liked one of Linkin Park's recent albums too actually, because I discovered that some people I never expected were like super huge fans of the band and were all griping about how bad it was. A Thousand Suns. Had to look it up. It's full of quirky experimentation stuff. Then they went back to what they had been doing after that.
And I know the guy just died and all but Dead by Sunrise was one of the worst things I've ever heard produced by a supposed "good member" of a band. How Amir and Ryan got suckered into working on that I'll never know, especially since Julien-K somehow hasn't sucked. (While the reborn Orgy has so terribly.)
Actually now that I think about Linkin Park has done quite a lot of stuff with the Orgy guys, Jay Gordon did the first remix and only single off Reanimation. Before he disappeared into whatever hell has brought back the new version.
