Pre-production began in early 2002, after Projekt Revolution 2002.

Linkin Park working on ‪Meteora‬ at NRG Recording Studios with Don Gilmore. Mike thought it sounded too 'folky', so he and Joe reversed the sample, effected it, and cut it into parts to maintain the chord progression. The intro was Chester performing a chord progression on an acoustic guitar. One of the songs worked on in the bus was 'Somewhere I Belong'. The band mainly recorded samples and guitar from their bus. The writing process for the album began in the Summer of 2001 during the Ozzfest Tour, where the band worked in the back of their tour bus.

Meteora was recorded from April 2002 to December 2002 at NRG Studios in North Hollywood, California. Then photographed again.' The picture was also used as the cover for the ' From The Inside' single. Original portraits by James Minchin Xeroxed and wheat pasted to wall. įrank Maddocks explained how the wall with portraits of the band members came together: 'Here’s a photo of one of the large walls we all painted for the album packaging. We're hoping to do some more things like that in the future.' Boris Tellegen (aka Delta) is also the person on cover of the album.

Things like that are really out of the ordinary and they're really special when we can make them happen. We had a lot of fun and we did a whole day where we just spraypainted and painted these gigantic walls. It was a pretty big deal to get him out and get him to work with us. For Meteora, we had a whole art day where Joe and I and Frank, who was our art director, then we invited out a graffiti artist named Delta, he's actually from Europe. We'll usually just kinda throw some ideas together and get things started. I know our album had a really lengthy booklet with it. Ībout how the artwork on the album came together, Mike said, 'Just to be clear about what I kind of do as far as the artwork goes, usually on the albums, I work with another designer because it's a lot of work putting together an album artwork. Mike Shinoda, Joe Hahn, Boris Tellegen, Frank Maddocks and James Minchin III working on the ‪Meteora‬ wall. In the same way Linkin Park doesn't mean the park, but the band, Meteora doesn't mean the rock formation, it means what this album sounds like.' Chester continued his statement, 'It's got this otherworldly vibe about it, it had this really great energy, and I wanted to have a record that lived up to that energy.' Mike explained: ''Meteora' was a word that caught my attention because it sounded huge. The name Meteora was derived from a rock formation in Greece, which has a monastery perched on top of it. Between the end of the Hybrid Theory touring cycle and the release of Meteora, the band took time to prepare and release their first remix album, Reanimation. Many view it as a 'sequel' to Hybrid Theory, in that the same nu-metal sound is carried on from the previous album.
