A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES (Linkin Park x Steve Aoki)

[Stranger]

Here's what Chester was referring to in the Yahoo Music interview two days ago:

 

Mike: "We just played a brand new song, A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES - @SteveAoki and @LinkinPark at #SummerSonic! #LPRecharge"

 

 

In regards to the song, someone asked when he started to collaborate with Steve:

"Steve and I met up like a year ago, maybe more. It happened pretty organically, just shooting ideas back and forth. #LPRecharge". Wretches & Kings.net asked him if the whole band is involved and he said, "It is a Linkin Park & Steve Aoki collaboration. #LPRecharge" He added: "We are only planning to perform it when we are with Steve. it's a collaboration. #LPRecharge"

 

Additonally:

- ALTNC will not be available through iTunes.

- ALTNC includes Mike rapping, Chester singing the chorus, and an EDM drop.

- ALTNC will be available sometime in the future, but not tonight.

- ALTNC will not be a part of the next Linkin Park album.

- ALTNC must be unlocked through the LP Recharge game.

So is it Steve Aoki ft. Linkin Park then or Linkin Park ft. Steve Aoki? Also it's starting to seem like its a LPRecharge/Power The World single rather that the lead single off the new album.

[LESTAT]

Chester's part sound really promising.

I think it's just "Steve Aoki x Linkin Park". Just like other artist did. I bet this is a soundtrack/official track for LP Recharge (i'm guessing based on the title). lol

Already posted on the main post. but thanks.

Mike has really 'upped' his rapping recently, a lot faster and tighter.

 

I think this might be an indication to the next album (which is exciting).

Still don't, LP are so unpredictable that their next album is going to sound Lady Gaga-ish and I'm going to look like a right tit!

This is a non issue but I wonder if Mike just typed the song that way for emphasis, or if they're sticking with the all caps.

You're faster as me, it's your problem.

I don't like it too.

[Kirstie]

I don't like the CAP's either, looks odd in my iTunes and seems needlessly agressive.

The purpose is to publicize the game. I don't think it'll be in iTunes soon.

[Mesck547]

Are they gonna release the studio version, or will it just be a part of the game?
