ana Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 *SPOIL ALERT!!!!* ATS NOTES So to all of you who don't care about knowing how the songs might sound like, I write down all the notes I took during the listening. Some of them might be weird to you, or dont fit but I had a lot of difficulties paying attention to all the different elements (and neither do I know all music genres) so here we go: 01. The Requiem [2:01] 1. mysterious - alien like 2. synth 3. keyboard -> is getting louder and louder 4. Submarine noise w/ Flanger (comes closer and closer) 5. Beat 6. Male choir -> uhhhh 7. female singing slowly (with a innocent voice) Don't save us everyone we are broken people living under loaded guns... 8. Voice from an General (like the remix of forgotten) "Two people lost, two people cried...." 9. "Now I become death..." Oppenheimer Speech 10/10 02. The Radiance [0:57] 1. Heartbeat + drums (Similar to WID) 2. Keyboard 3. Guitar -> electro/pop 4. Mike singing (autotune?) 7/10 03. Burning in the Skies [4:13] 1. Chester singing 2. Keyboard sounds a bit like modern Jazz/HipHop 3. Another flanger effect on the guitars 4. Mike and chester singing "I'm loosing what I don't deserve" -> a bit like blackbirds 5. Bridge with only guitar playing -> Fade Out 7.5/10 04. Empty Spaces [0:18] 1. Crickets 2. Bombs/Shooting in the Background 3. African warsongs 4. SUDDEN STOP (instrumental but fits perfectly) 9/10 05. When They Come for Me [4:53] 1. Heavy guitar w/ Distortion 2. Drum N Bass 3. Mike rapping -> really agressive 4. "I'm not a robot, I'm not a monkey....MOFO!" 5. Chorus is sung by a crowd : Ohh ohh 6. Has a lot of Drum N Bass/Electronica/Rap beat 7. Song is a bit quiter 8. Chester singing: "And when they come for me, I'll be gone" 9. Fade Out to the african warsong 10. A melody (orient) fades in 50/10 06. Robot Boy [4:28] 1. Keyboard - really joyful 2. Drums fade in 3. An "Uhhh" choir sung by chester and mike 4. (The drums remind me a bit of Where did you go) 5. the guitar sounds like a soundgarden song 6. Lyrics: "You say you're not gonna fight, because no one's gonna fight for you" 7. Synth - Strings 8. "Hold on to the weight of the world..." 9. Guitar Outro w/ FX 8/10 07. Jornada del Muerto [1:34] 1. Chester and Mike singing 2. I cant clearly understand the language. Is it backwards or another language (was definately not spanish) 3. Guitar distortion/Drums 4. Building Up -> becomes louder and stronger 5. Sudden Emptyness 7/10 08. Waiting for the End [3:51] 1. Wow very punkish/trashy guitar riff 2. followed by a single key play 3. heavy song 4. Mike Rap -> Reggae/Jamaica Style 5. (emptyness) 6. Chester singing in a soft voice (beautiful): "Waiting for the end to come" 7. Drums fade in 8. A ballad, but could also be heard in a car while driving down a long road. 8.5/10 09. Blackout [4:39] 1. synth organ pipes 2. Fast army drums 3. Keyboard -> similar play as on all the songs of ATS 4. Sounds like the 80s/90s keyboard 5. Chester Rapping to a fast beat 6. WHAT A SCREAM! WHOAH!!! 7. back to the rap (acid rain?) 8. THE SCREAM!!! 9. The guitar sounds like it could be on a M. Manson album 10. It has some Dubstep elements. 11. Mike singing in a really soft voice: "Calm Down" to the beat from the beginning 12. Chester joins Mike (I hated the chester rapping part but the beat is chilling and mike's voice is really beautiful) 6/10 10. Wretches and Kings [4:10] 1. Public Speech 2. Guitar -> alien like 3. Heavy drums 4. Mike Rap 5. (song reminds me of the 2009 Lying From You intro) 6. Chester's voice is really really crazy, just like the one from skindred! Never heard him singing like that before!!!! 7. Obviously another crowd song 8. JOE SCRATCHES A LOT!!!!!!!!! 9/10 11. Wisdom, Justice, and Love [1:38] 1. Piano melody (very sad) 2. Public Speech...World War 2 like 3. "The end is near" 4. Building up choir -> the voice turns into an evil-voice 5. I can hear Martin Luther Kings speech. 6."Wisdom, Justice and Love" wow very powerful 9.5/10 12. Iridescent [4:56] 1. Piano - Mike singing 2. A very sad atmosphere 3. Chester singing 4. Song sounds just like Marchin On by One Republic 5. Obviously a Pop Ballad 6. Background guitar 7. WOW the whole band is singing in the end 7.5/10 13. Fallout [1:23] 1. Sound builds up 2. This sounds just like the bridge on "Buddha For Mary" by 30seconds where Jared sings: this is the life on mars 3. Chester Singing: "So Don't apologize" / "What I don't deserve" 8/10 14. The Catalyst [5:39] well it starts with a synth loop ..we know the song 9/10 15. The Messenger [3:01] 1. ACOUSTIC GUITAR! 2. Chester singing: "When you feel you're alone, your instict tells you to run" 3. THIS SOUNDS JUST LIKE HERO OF WAR BY RISE AGAINST 4. "Love(or Life?) leaves us blind" 5. Chester becomes crazy and desperate but is not screaming like on Blackout 6. Piano follows the guitar 7. Ends with chester singing: "Back home, where love/life keeps us blind" overall: 9/10 Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5182-spoil-alert/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

Legend Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So a song you bashed the shit out of got a 6/10? Seems like your changing on us once you noticed most of the LP community loving blackout.

VavourasLP Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 You got me really confused in Waiting For The End. You have noted "heavy song" and at the end "a ballad". And I think it was also the song that you said you could dance pretty well at a club in your newswire post. wtf is going on in this song?

DecanoLP Posted August 19, 2010 Share Posted August 19, 2010 So a song you bashed the shit out of got a 6/10? Seems like your changing on us once you noticed most of the LP community loving blackout.We don't love Blackout. We love a short freestyle version without any instruments. This song could turn out totally terrible. That's a difference for me =) Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5182-spoil-alert/#findComment-91772 Share on other sites More sharing options...

ana Posted August 19, 2010 Author Share Posted August 19, 2010 (edited) So a song you bashed the shit out of got a 6/10? Seems like your changing on us once you noticed most of the LP community loving blackout. I remember all of the song now and It was okay. Hated Chester's rap. Oh cmon do you always have to be that rude? I wonder how you truly are, outside of the internet. Hybrid Theory: 8/10 Meteora: 10/10 MTM: 7/10 about the dance thing: I told you this album is so complex. about the guitar solo: well I didn't noticed a traditional guitar solo, more a moment where the guitar was only playing...Ah okay yes it is exactly like on What Ive Done... (just before chester sings in the calm part) Edited August 19, 2010 by ana Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5182-spoil-alert/#findComment-91824 Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Closer to the Edge" is one of the best music videos I have ever seen. It would take a lot to beat it.
