It was released on March 25, 2003 through Warner Bros. Records, following ''Reanimation'', a collaboration album which featured remixes of songs included on their debut studio album ''Hybrid Theory''. The album was produced by the band alongside Don Gilmore. The title ''Meteora'' is taken from the Greek Orthodox monasteries sharing the same name. The album has a similar sound to ''Hybrid Theory'', as described by critics. Featuring lots of spray-painted artworks, the album took a year to be recorded. The main artwork was assembled by the band with help of "The Flem" and "Delta". The album was recorded during touring to support their debut effort and later recorded at NRG studios. Linkin Park released singles from ''Meteora'' for over a year, including "Somewhere I Belong", "Faint", "Numb", "From the Inside" and "Breaking the Habit". The song "Lying from You" was released as a promotional single. ''Meteora'' is the most successful album in the history of the Alternative Songs chart, a chart that specializes in radio play of alternative songs. As of 2013, the album has sold over 20 million copies worldwide, and is certified six times platinum by the RIAA. ''Meteora'' was also ranked number 36 on ''Billboard''s ''Top 200 Albums of the Decade''.〔("Best of the 2000s: Billboard 200 Albums" ). Billboard.com.
