I heard today on the radio after Shadow of the Day was played that LP is releasing a 2 disc greatest hits CD with unreleased tracks to be included on June 16th. I didn't know the station but it was one in Philadelphia. Anyone hear anything similar? Got more info?

Any chance it was WMMR in Philly? I'd buy it if it had unreleased songs, for sure.

It's a little weird for a band to release a "best off" with only 3 albums... but if it would have unreleased tracks, whatever!

He fallows them as much as I do so I trust him. He didn't say the station, he just told me the info the guy mentioned after Shadow of the Day was finished |

I seriously highly doubt Linkin Park will release such an album. I'd stake my hearing on it. There is a better chance of them releasing another reanimation album which is already highly unlikely. Besides, no one releases a greatest hits album after only three studio albums? Doesn't make any sense if you really consider it.

It would make sense to release it if Warner's aching for cash. They know how die-hard LP fans can be - they'd make sales even on one bonus track. Plus, LPs singles have always been pretty big. It would be somewhere around 18 to 20 tracks (depending what they consider a single).

This would be extremely lame but it'd get them one record closer to getting off Warner's label so I wouldn't mind. Why not a b-side cd though? Anyone who buys a greatest hit cd, really isn't that big of a fan anyways. So I don't really see why anyone here would buy it.

For all the people saying that a Greatest Hits album after 3 albums doesn't make sense, think a bit more about it.
LP has 16 singles in the span of almost 10 years. If you ignore the fact that there are only 3 official studio albums, that really is not a bad number for a Greatest Hits CD. Plus if it has unreleased songs, and gets them one step closer (nice pun XP) to being free from Warner, this is great. -------------------- the proud new admin at fuckyeahlinkinpark.tumblr.com follow us!

Okay, let's dispell this rumor RIGHT NOW so it does not turn into a No Roads Left-Projekt Revolution situation. Chester SPECIFICALLY SAID that he could not promise new material this summer, but it COULD happen. Okay. I'm not trying to be a d-bag, it's just when I read what you wrote, you kind of took it completely out of context and it brought back painful memories of LP fans complaining about "NO NRL!!!" -------------------- the proud new admin at fuckyeahlinkinpark.tumblr.com follow us!

I believe the station is confusing LP for Incubus, who is releasing their Greatest Hits "MONUMENTS AND MELODIES" on June 16th, as a two disc collection and includes some unleased material.

Further along to Gator's post... In the Philly area, there happens to be a relatively new rock station at 104.5FM. I've heard them disclose several pieces of LP-related news over the last few months that haven't been confirmed nor have any of them ever happened. This goes for several other bands too.
That said, if it happened to be WMMR, this rumor might have a little more weight to it. They normally don't go about reporting things that aren't true. -------------------- [ Disclaimer: ] The above post may be speculative, based on misinformation, contain inaccurate data, or could be entirely full of crap.

Moving this one from the Newswire, will likely be closed unless the information can be verified elsewhere.

Christina Aguilera released a Greatest Hits after only 3 albums and Lp have a similar hardcore fan base and are very marketable.
Anyone think that Lp might be behind this? In order for them to get out of their contract with Warner? Or does the contract state that the albums must be new? -------------------- London Astoria, England 3/5/07 (M&G)
