hahninator Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 https://twitter.com/heydudeimadam/status/441411609680826369 "RIP #ALLCAPSEVERYTHING. It was fun while it lasted." LP used an interesting form of marketing for LIVING THINGS, by requesting that all of the songs be capitalized (as well as the album name) whenever you discussed the album. It was sent to iTunes that way, it was written that way since early 2012 when BURN IT DOWN first came out. With the LIVING THINGS cycle over, should we return these songs to normal capitalization? Or keep them in ALL CAPS? Up to you guys! Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/10647-keep-living-things-all-caps-or-change-them/ Share on other sites More sharing options...

FearOfTheDuck Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 All Caps has infuriated me since it began. Normal titles PLEASE. Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/10647-keep-living-things-all-caps-or-change-them/#findComment-214819 Share on other sites More sharing options...
wiiesel Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It is senseless imo.. so change it to normal spelling. Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/10647-keep-living-things-all-caps-or-change-them/#findComment-214820 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasputin 93 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 even if not really understanding why it's so special to write it capitalized, I'd keep it that way, since it was the way LP wanted it to be released...same for ALTNC. It's far easier to recognize when for example in statistics the LT-related songs.

hahninator Posted March 17, 2014 Author Share Posted March 17, 2014 If we change it what do we do about QWERTY and ALTNC? Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/10647-keep-living-things-all-caps-or-change-them/#findComment-214822 Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rasputin 93 Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 good point! we already kept QWERTY in all caps since 2007...so what? ^^ just let it the way as it has been on the release imo.

LinkinMark Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 It's something the band did intentionally during that album cycle so I say keep it that way. I don't get why everyone is so annoyed with it..

FearOfTheDuck Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 QWERTY should be in all caps, that's how it appears on a keyboard. ALTNC should not.

GlassCastles Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 ALL CAPS FOR THE WIN! In all seriousness, the band referred to the LIVING THINGS tracks in all caps, so I see no reason to change it.

FearOfTheDuck Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 In all seriousness, the band referred to the LIVING THINGS tracks in all caps, so I see no reason to change it.My reasoning is that having all caps titles amidst those that aren't just looks annoying. Might just be my OCD, but that's my thinking.

GlassCastles Posted March 17, 2014 Share Posted March 17, 2014 Whatever the site decides to do, I'll keep using the all caps for two reasons. That's what the band wanted them to look like for that era, and it pisses people off so fucking much. I don't get all the hate for it, but to each their own.
