Editorial Review:
Explicit Version. Helmed by noted director Blue Leach (R.E.M., Depeche Mode, Snow Patrol, Beck), Road To Revolution, Live At Milton Keynes captures Linkin Park on its acclaimed 2008 Projekt Revolution tour in front of 65,000 fans in England. The band's first live document in five years, the almost 80 minute concert DVD (and the accompanying CD version) will surely help fans survive a break after the group's recent touring and before the next Linkin Park studio album.
Road To Revolution Live At Milton Keynes (CD/DVD) Reviews:
Road to Revolution at Milton Keynes CD DVD 
2009-09-12 - I received this product well within the time given in the conditioned promised. It was also very great to listen and was very special to me totally. Thanks for letting me express
Not bad, but a slight disappointment 
2009-07-18 - First off, just so everyone knows where I'm coming from, I'm a Linkin Park fan who's seen them live several times. I DJ'ed at an FM radio station for two years with my own rock show and worked as an album reviewer for my college paper for three years. That said, this album is not "bad" but is nowhere near what I was expecting, nor would it rise above "decidedly average" in my book.
First off, let's hit the high points. The setlist is solid, containing a nice mix from all three of their original studio albums, both hits and deep cuts. I particularly liked the inclusion of the original version of "Pushing Me Away" off of "Hybrid Theory" rather than the remixed version off "Reanimation." The setlist was my biggest worry going into this album, because in the multiple times I've seen them from 2003 to the present I saw the same setlist, with only one song's difference each time. Jay-Z also makes an appearance on the album, and he and LP collaborate for a pair of songs from "Collision Course."
That said, this album doesn't stack up well against "Live in Texas." One of the great things I loved about seeing LP live is that they always played like they had something to prove, as if the show you were watching was going to be the one they were judged on for all time. That led to an incredible stage energy. The band, and the vocals in particular, seem to lack that on "Road to Revolution," as if they slacked off a bit and accepted the fact that they're famous. The sound mixing also sounds off, and varies slightly from song to song, leading some songs to be bass-heavy, guitar-heavy or with vocals so heavy it drowns out the instruments.
To be fair, it is an LP album, and hardcore LP fans will like it, if for no other reason than it offers live cuts from "Minutes to Midnight." The casual fan, however, would be better off picking up "Live in Texas" to see and hear a really great LP live show.
Best music purchase ever!
2009-07-10 - Normally I do not see much value in these personal reviews as they really are a matter of style and personal taste. This purchase however left me feeling like I stole this. I had heard this concert aired on a local station one evening wishing I could get a copy of it and ordered this, not knowing it was the same concert. I was blown away that not only did I get the CD, I got the DVD. It is as close as I have ever experienced to being at the live show and left me with an adrenaline rush equal to any concert I've been to (including Pink Floyd and U2 and cost about $400.00 less)! Best part is I can relive this anytime I choose. Excellent!!!
good but to much cussing 
2009-06-30 - this is a good album with one downside a lot of cussing espeashaly with jay-z on two songs toward the end of the album
Awesome, just as I remembered it
2009-04-25 - Just buy the damn DVD. You know you want to. Look, if you've ever been to a Linkin Park concert, if you've seen them at Project Rev, or have never seen them at all, these guys don't disappoint. The music quality is good as well as the vocals on the CD/DVD. Jay Z comes out to rap a little if you like him (I personally don't). The video quality is also good, not grainy like you usually get when they shoot indoor Rock concerts. If I had to complain then they needed bonus features or extras on the menu. But I watched it on the 70" big screen and started moshing with my friends.----enjoy :)
