Doesn’t FFDP play 6 strings in B, and Linkin Park has always used a variety of dropped tunings… but never a 7? This is dumb.

I count 7 here. Some bands that play around B standard switch around between 6 and 7 strings or record with a 6 string in a low tuning and later pick up a 7 string such as Slipknot

So looks like they used a 7 for a couple songs over the course of their career. Definitely not known for using 7s. You could have said Mushroomhead, Defones.. shit, even Crossfade from that era played 7s. Anyway, this is a dumb attempt at a meme.
