Breaking the habit

Linkin Park

Description

^{Linkin Park is an American rock band from Agoura Hills, California. Since their formation in 1996, the band has sold more than fifty-million albums and won two Grammy Awards.
"Breaking the Habit" is an electronica influenced song by the nu metal band Linkin Park, from their 2003 album Meteora. It was released as the sixth and final single from the album in 2004. It became the fifth consecutive single from Meteora to reach number 1 on the Billboard Modern Rock Tracks chart, a feat unmatched by any other artist in the history of that chart.
The video was shot of the band performing the song and was later rotoscoped. The animation style is tied closely to the animated segment from Quentin Tarantino's Kill Bill Vol. 1 . This video has also been a favorite among MTV viewers going so far as to winning the 2004 MTV VMA Viewers Choice Award.
At the beginning of the video, a man is shown lying on a car's roof. The car has been surrounded by police tape, and a crowd is beginning to gather. Police are shown investigating the reason for the fall. The video then cuts to other characters, many shown to be depressed or frustrated with their lives. The first noteworthy character is a girl who breaks a mirror, then writes "I'm nothing" onto a sheet of paper. She then picks up a shard of broken glass, clenches it in her hand, and smears her blood on the paper.}
