Linkin Park have just announced that they will be releasing a brand new remix and collaboration album entitled 'RECHARGED', based on songs from their latest release 'LIVING THINGS'.

"A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES will be on the upcoming album, RECHARGED, a collection of interpretations of songs from LIVING THINGS.

 

RECHARGED will be released October 29th on CD, VINYL, and DIGITAL.

A limited-edition version of the album will also be available and feature an interactive 3D sculpture based on LIVING THINGS album artwork. In addition, a 48 page art booklet, both LIVING THINGS and RECHARGED albums, and a magnetic stylus that allows you to interact with the liquid solution in the 3D sculpture to create unique patterns and designs will be included.

 

Pre-orders for RECHARGED are set to begin on Monday September 16th on LINKINPARK.COM , while digital and iTunes pre-orders will begin once the new single is unlocked through LP Recharge.

 

"I think this song and release show where we're at right now. Making the song with Steve, premiering it through the Recharge Facebook game, and debuting it via Microsoft's Xbox Music—I think it's all indicative of our band's commitment to experimentation and pushing boundaries." - Mike"

 

Broadwayworld.com also has an article on the release, with more information available here. An excerpt about the release reads, "A limited-edition version of the album will feature an interactive 3D sculpture based on LIVING THINGS album artwork. The sculpture was derived from a digital manipulation of a lion's head, housed in a glass globe surrounded by a magnetic liquid called ferofluid this one-of-a-kind piece allows fans to interact with the solution via a magnetic stylus to create unique patterns and designs. Included with the sculpture is a 48-page art book, 2 CD folio pack including LIVING THINGS and RECHARGED, and the aforementioned magnetic stylus. All contents are contained in a custom hinged, clam shell- styled, display box. Each box set will be numbered and LIMITED TO ONLY 500 globally. Pre-orders will begin on Monday September 16th at www.linkinpark.com while pre-orders of the digital RECHARGE album will begin on iTunes once the new single is unlocked."

 

Edit: A message from Mike on the band's FB page, along with the album art and tracklist.

 

After Reanimation I told many people I would never put together another album of remixes…but as I began to hear all the amazing reinterpretations of LIVING THINGS, I had to change my mind. The result, RECHARGED, is definitely worth it. I can’t wait for you guys to hear this amazing project, with contributions by Pusha T, DATSIK, KillSonik, Bun B, Money Mark, and others. Our new song with Steve Aoki, A LIGHT THAT NEVER COMES is on the album as well, plus a special remix of the new song by the inimitable Rick Rubin.

 

Enjoy the music,

 

- Mike

Now, who are the remixers and/or the guests, and what's gonna be the style of the album.

Well ALTNC will be on the album. So unless the album is different from track to track I would expect it to have an electronic type vibe to it at least. I seriously doubt it will be "LT, the EDM versions" though. I hope the Tech N9ne verse is on this album.

I just hope the "CASTLE OF GLASS" remix (the one in LPTV) will be features in this album.

Who knows, LP/Mike worked with Steve Aoki, and maybe with Avicii and DJ Fresh lately.. And we know that LP and Steve wrote 4-5 songs already.

I just thought about it. :)

If A Light That Never Comes is the lead single, I think we can guess it's going to be some electronic music remixes. Maybe they'll even use "already released" remixes.

Please dont say the "LIVING THING: Remix Subscription" will be included. I wish it will not appear. T.T

Me too, but I'm realistic - this is an option.

 

Like I posted in the I'm pretty sure no one's playing that game now, though, which is a problem because I don't intend on physically buying this album.

They should wait with the announcement at least 4-5 days, if they really care about the game.

Like I posted in the ALTNC thread, I'm very excited for this. Reanimation 2 is real and it's happening.

The album release isn't related to the game though is it? Just ALTNC. If somehow the song isn't unlocked or leaked by album release we'll get it then anyway. I'll buy the album through iTunes probably.

Yup, complete with all the BID remixes spaced throughout the album lol.

The post stated that ALTNC has to be unlocked before pre-orders on iTunes are available. Obviously if they're nowhere near reaching the goal a month from now, the pre-orders will open up anyway, but it just seems like a stupid, arbitrary thing to do.

These are the Burnus Tracks.

So maybe they'll reduce the goal.
