I'm pretty sure that's what this means. Mike is being so vague. Though with the PreOrder of the album on Monday, its the only thing I can assume.

"LIVING THINGS"

Thoughts on the album title? Or is it just him messing around?

EDIT 4/15:

Mike Shinoda has posted a new blog post on his official website, confirming the new album title to be "LIVING THINGS" as well as a very detailed story on the journey from Hybrid Theory to now on the band's evolution. A great read, be sure to check it out HERE.

"Monday is almost here.

Early Monday morning, our new single BURN IT DOWN will be released. The LIVING THINGS album pre-sale will begin. You’ll see the album cover, the track listing, and hear about some new tour plans. My bandmates and I are very excited for this week.

Many of you know our story up until this point. We built the band upon the idea of fusing all our favorite styles of music–as different as they might be–into one, signature sound. Our first two albums were the result of a lot of hard work, perseverance, smarts, and luck, to build a toolbox that would provide us with what we needed to make the best songs we could at the time."

Thoughts? The world of Linkin Park is starting to heat up and new album time is almost upon us!

nice but it´s not a such exciting title like HT or meteora.

No no no no no no, don't use such an inflammatory and ridiculous title when Mike just sent one tweet with a hashtag. This doesn't confirm anything.

He didn't confirmed anything!!! Could you guys just wait 'till Monday?

LOL!!!
Even if the album does end up being called that, this thread still makes me laugh.

"ALL CAPS EVERYTHING" will be the album title. Mike just confirmed it.

If it turns out to be the title, I would be ok with it. Due to how Mike wrote the tweet, I think there could be some sarcasm, so I'm still not sold yet that the confirmed title is Living Things.

It was just a hashtag. This doesn't confirm anything.

Please don't affirm something like that, it is pointless. Or at least, speak for yourself because this only will generate confusion. Specially if you TWEET it.

^ What else could it mean? jerk

/respect , dude. First respect, then talk

Respect.

Don't freaking jump to conclusions where there are none. kthnx.

This. Is. NOT. A. CONFIRMATION.

Therefore why is this in the news section. I mean, goddamn.

You guys are drawing conclusions based on evidence that isn't there.

Indeed. I'm more interested in the content than the album title.

This.

Don't be a tool. Numbrocker jumped the gun here.

Especially when we're getting the album title on Monday (how do you pre-order an album without knowing the contents?), this topic is entirely unnecessary.

And some of you are being incredibly rude.

I'm sorry Raquel.

I would gladly preorder an album from the band I've been obsessed with for over 10 years. I love this band.
Everyone else - stop whining and treat this like a rumor if it will keep you from attacking other forum members. Calm down.

This. A million times.

ITT: People hating Living Things as the name of the new album.

This. I judge an album by the god damn songs on it and how they sound, not what the hell they call the album.

Says the n00b.... That's just funny...

So apparently the way that you read the tweet means that all of us have to interpret it that way and you get to be a douche about it.. When did you buy the site from Jonas and Mark?


Numbrocker has nothing to do with this thread being in the Newswire, it's clearly posted that Mark (Hahninator) edited the post and put it there, anyone that's been here longer than a week knows that non-staff can't post new threads in the Newswire...


I love you

Album title doesnt make the album good or bad... the music does

The mayans must be right about the world ending, we agree on something...

is that a "I miss you too" kinda thing?

I think some people are in denial because they don't like "Living Things" as the title.

If Mike was being sarcastic, it would be more apparent. And I doubt he would start a hashtag on a fake title for the album.

Trollnoda is back.

Lol ever heard of "Potato Songs"?

I'd prefer to know details of the album before I preorder, that's essentially what I was getting at. Details being more than just the title, rather, a title, cover art, release date, track list, etc.

That's neither here nor there, though.

I'd like to apologize for my second post in the topic. Unnecessarily rude of me.

In B4 people start apologizing if the album title happens to be "Living Things"

This thread = lulz.

Nobody has to apologize if it happens to be "Living Things." My point has been that it could or could not be, but that a hashtag is enough evidence to draw such a conclusion. Personally, I think it's an awful title but I'll live with it just like everyone else will.

Shinoda is lurking this thread now and laughs evilly

Exactly what Mike is doing right now....

What is the problem with the album name? Really, the fact that the name for some is not good, doesn't mean the album is bad

I see a tweet of some guy and he say: Rolling Stone Magazine: "[Living Things] is the most powerful album since Hybrid Theory

If this IS the album title, I like it. If this isn't the album title, I don't mind. It's a decent title IMO, it's not amazing, but it's decent.

Think this, it's better than Justin Bieber's album names

Dont really care about the album name. It's not bad, but nothing spectacular which is fine. But i'll wait until Monday for it to be official. I think they should self title it or call it 5, or somehting..maybe Cinco? haha

I like the name. I don't have any problem with the name.

But why ? why ? the new is in the Newswire ?
Isn't confirmed by the band, i'm wrong ?
We complain about the posts of the guys of LPBR and LPL is doing the same thing...

I hope the new album's name be Living Things, but if not, it will be a HUGE fail by LPL.

This.

VERY OFF TOPIC:

Hey, what i said is ok ? or have an error ?
Because i don't know if i have to say: Be Living Things or Is Living Things, if you can help me with my english will be amazing...

rigggggghht.

Where did Mike say that the name of the album will be Living Things? It could be, but you shouldn't say that if you don't know for sure.

You know what, this entire thread is ridiculous. We are all here for the same reason, to be Linkin Park fans. The way some of you treated Numbrocker is awful. Its so bad that she no longer wants to post here. Awesome. Thanks so much for alienating one of your fellow forum members by being rude. How embarrassing.

Honestly, if Living Things isn't the album name, then why in the world would the band have made us work so hard on the first round of the puzzle to find that phrase? That makes so much sense.

The livingthings.linkinpark.com domain still exists (even though it redirects to burnitdown right now) which leads to wmglparkthing.prod.acquia-sites.com

How is it a huge fail if Shinoda tweeted about it?

This thread is way out of control. It all boils down to "Living Things" is the "unofficial" title of the new album. Hate it or love it, we will have confirmation in due time.

Because he didn't tweet that the album name is going to be living things. Like i said above, it could be true, but the right position is not to jump into conclusions without knowing for sure.

I can understand not saying something is one thing when you do not know for sure but just look at all of the hints. The livingthings webpage. It was in the puzzle. The hashtag on twitter. Why would Mike post a hashtag like that all of a sudden. He began doing it with #BurnItDown to get it trending worldwide to get word spread of the single being released. The same thing is being done with #LivingThings. It is ALL but confirmed that Living Things is the new album title. I just think some people are just using the "it hasn't been confirmed" excuse because they don't like the name.

ZOMG THE ALBIM IZ GUNNA SUXOR BECUZ THE TITEL BLOWZZZZ
