RogueSoul Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Can't wait to hear the Linkin Park R&B song! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 I guess this means the run of LPU CDs with demos is now over. It was great while it lasted 9, X, 11 and 12 were fantastic overall - we got some amazing stuff. Not really a fan of them recording with a musical guest that isn't a popular artist (like someone from Depeche Mode or something) but maybe it will turn out good. I hope they don't do this for 10 songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xdespisedkidx Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Nooooooooooo I don't want some shitty collab cd. We need more demos from Meteora era. Fuck them they don't release any song with vocals from this era (yeah I know Figure 09, and Faint..) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
[AndOne] Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 The text is refering to a song not songs. Them recording one song in just 2 days is a damn miracle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Andros Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Well, interesting to know that there will be this kind of song, but honestly, I prefer to hear more demos of every era, or a b-side. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
maik_gianino Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 Very nice idea, they always making different stuffs and helping to grow. Sadly is US only, but is understandable because they will spend lot of money in this. Looking forward for a different LPU CD, maybe with some collabs like LPU4, mixed with demos and lives?

Twiilite Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 OH NOOOOO! Instead of the 100th POA demo and/or nu-metal instrumental on LPU13we're getting an all new LP collaboration!! End of sarcasm. There's plenty of room left on the CD for demos so everyone needs to calm their shit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skipees Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 (edited) funny thing, always when something happens/not happens, 50% of the people complains, and the other 50% complains about the complains = 100% complains.

Numbrocker Posted July 22, 2013 Share Posted July 22, 2013 This is not replacing the whole CD. Don't worry- Your song may even end up on the upcoming LPU13 album due out later this year. I didn't think it was going to be a collab cd, but I feel like at this point I've reached my wits end with contests/collabs. Catalyst remix contest, LIVING THINGS "remixes", Lost in the Echo remix contest, COG tshirt contest, MFR tshirt contest, etc. Yeah I'm complaining, but I've never claimed to be someone who thinks everything LP does is OMGWONDERFULFANTASTIC. Just not me. I just want Chester to do an acoustic cd for LPU13. And if not that then fall back on the reliable demos (more Meteora heavy if possible).
