...there's any musical link among the three, it's an emphasis on melody--at least compared with the testosterone-drenched, jock-rock chants of Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock. And that may help lure pop kids. "There's a lot more stuff that everybody can sing along to, that girls can take home and listen and sing to, as well as those guys hitting their heads on the wall," says Elektra A&R associate Jill Katona. But if the three don't make a movement, they may represent the desire for one, and a first taste of things...
Well, not overnight. Rock never really died--after the alternative-rock craze bottomed out in the late '90s, rap-rock hybrids like Limp Bizkit and Kid Rock as well as more straightforward rock bands like Creed have clicked with audiences and gone multiplatinum. And record-company executives, like anxious analysts anticipating a tech bubble burst, have been anticipating a correction in teeny-pop's long boom.

"We can't possibly compete with Limp Bizkit and Britney Spears, and I have no real desire to. But as long as people are excited about our work, we're going to expend the energy to do it." Stipe later adds, for good measure, "I'm only two years older than Tom Cruise and three years older than...
Singer Till Lindemann delivers the lyrics in a movie-villain baritone (even counting to 10, as he does at the beginning of “Sonne,” carries a certain menace), while Richard Kruspe and Paul Landers’ drive home guitar riffs sharp enough to put Limp Bizkit et al. to shame.
