so. which one is "Guilty all the same" ??

The one in D Minor at 200 BPM.

 

It may be no one. During LP writing process everything gets changed very much. One song may become two or more ,or two or more songs can become one. Tempo and keys gets changed often too. etc.

The only instance of an LP song changing tempo and/or key between demo and final version was Three Band Terror > Until it Breaks. Considering how much of LP's music is created (or at least "started") on a computer, plus the fact that they record all of their songs as demos before entering the final phase of recording (Rob has to either play along with an existing recording or a click track, after all), that kind of stuff is usually "locked in" very early in the process.

Sorry if this is a stupid question but, if Guilty All the Same is the 200 BPM in D Minor, this means that the song is the fastest song of the album? Considering that all the songs from the album are in the paper?

Purely speaking in terms of BPM, yes (unless there's something faster on the album that isn't listed on the paper). But again, BPM isn't exactly a good indicator of a song's style, or even how fast it "feels" at times. One of the fastest tracks in the LP catalog (also at 200 BPM) is none other than...Breaking the Habit. The softest song released on either of LP's first two albums was also the fastest.
