Different. But Good Different. - By: Wackiest, 13 Oct 2008 
I can see how this album has divided opinion among Linkin Park fans for it's seemingly large step away from the Linkin Park norm.
I can also see that those who bought 'Reanimation' on it's release date would have been understandably disappointed, as this isin it's basic form a remix album of the previous 'Hybrid Theory' & not a brandspanking new creation.
That said, although this is indeed a new direction it isin my opinion an outstanding collaboration project between Linkin Park & the numerous DJ's & artists that helped create this interpretation of 'Hybrid Theory'
The fact that the songs taken arein so many ways indistinguishable but at the same time being incredibly reminiscent is amazing. It's a fresh take on the old Linkin Park sound & is a great way to fallin love with Hybrid Theory all over again. Particular tracks that stand out for me are, 'ENTH E ND', 'WTH>YOU' & the beautiful reanimation of 'Crawling', 'Krwlng'
One criticism could be that some of the remixes are repetitive & similar but after a couple of listens I found this disappears as you start to really listen to the songs.
Buy this expecting a traditional Linkin Park cd & you will be disappointed, but buy it with an open mind & some curiosity & you may find it stuck on repeat for several days.
Well produced and interesting! LISTEN WITH HEADPHONES... - By: Adam Jackson, 30 Aug 2008 Very enjoyable, especially as remix albums go!
Many of the Hybrid Theory tracks are improved on, & there is some excellent production work at play here. Yes, you do need an open mind as the tracks edge further from Metal towards Hip Hop & Electro.
Recommended alongside Mike Shinoda's excellent Fort Minor project...
Excelent better than Hybrid Theory - By: Mr. S. M. Baxter, 24 Jul 2008 
This CD is better than hybrid theory
Most remix cd's ruin the legacy but this raises the bar
Also makes me cycle faster on me mountain bike this & rage against the machine will get you to your cycle destination faster & thats a fact!!!!
Not just a remix album - By: G. Jones, 06 Jun 2008 To call this album a 're-mix' of Hybrid theory, would be like saying the Mona Lisa is just 'a painting'. It's a completely successful re-working of a masterpiece &in this day & age, that's an extremely rare thing.
This album is probably my favourite out of all Linkin Park's albums, & I almost feel a little disappointed that the band haven't done similar follow up albums to 'Meteora' & 'Minutes to Midnight'. (But I still am holding on to the hope that they will!).
My favourite tracks have to be Pts. OF Athrty & Krwlng. These tracks give the original songs a complete different sound & feeling to them. A master classin originality, & I know it's been said to deathin all the other reviews, but it just shows what a talented bunch the band are.
Awesome!
Awesome Album. - By: May-Miller, 30 Dec 2007 I still can't believe the talent that goes into this album. As if creating the original tracks with a blend of screaming & soft vocals, crunching & mellow guitars, rapping & scratching wasn't enough, Linkin Park have collaborated with a whole crowd of artists & produced an incredible result.
Re-Animation has enough fresh sounds to merit listening to Meteora still, but captures elements of each track & mashes them up to aural delight!!
I think this album is brilliant, & the artwork is awesome too. Special credit to Mike Shinoda, who not only raps on the tracks but produced the whole album, crafted the carefully orchestrated intro & outro, & generally shaped the sound of this record.
