Probably same old same old Linkubus talk. All about how they're surprised they haven't toured together and how they are excited to tour together, etc.

[lgr]

true but i think the idea is that fans can get some Q's answered too!

"When will we get to hear Pictureboard?"

 

Guarantee some asshole is going to try to push that through.

[lgr]

yeah i guess doing it via twitter means they can be selective and filter out most of the "WHEN WILL YOU BE PLAYING IN [xyz]!!?? <3<3"

Linkin Park announced about the Honda Civic tours 2012 on Canada's newspaper this summer 2012 is coming.

Cool poster and all, but these shows were already announced last month along with the rest of the Honda Civic Tour dates.

Awesome. Good find.

[[AndOne]]

They should have cut a few seconds at the beginning and end, it's really awkward like this.

[gorast]

It's hilarious how badly cut that video is. I don't think we were meant to see this version of it.

[lgr]

ha! yeah his face at the beginning...

Recently Myspace was invited to stop by NRG Studios in North Hollywood to get an exclusive sneak peek at Linkin Park’s upcoming fifth album Living Things, which will be out on June 26 via WBR. Guitarist Brad Delson played host, noting that this disc is an “amalgam of our first releases, which is the sound people know us best for, and that experimental stuff.”

.

Delson, who also mentioned that the band listened to a lot of folk music and early Americana during the recording process, added that the shift in sound on this release is due to the fact that the musicians used “a lot of tools we had put aside that we felt comfortable using again.” He added, “It’s a random process where we’re deconstructing things and putting them back together… We just use whatever sounds we think will be best for the record and then figure out how to play them later.”

.

While we can’t actually let you hear any of the new tracks we can offer a glimpse into what’s to come (and what the heck Delson is talking about).

.

Track: “Lost In The Echo”

Sample Lyric: “We got lost in the echo.”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Epic

What You Can Expect: A grandiose, swelling number that harkens back to early single “In the End.”

.

Track: “In My Remains”

Sample Lyric: “Like an army falling one by one”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Slick

What You Can Expect: A heavy rocker that slowly builds from a sparse, electronic backbone.

.

Track: “Burn It Down”

Sample Lyric: “We’re building it up to break it down”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Single

What You Can Expect: Listen for yourself below…

.

Linkin Park – Burn It Down

.

Track: “Lies Greed Misery”

Sample Lyric: “Now let me show you exactly how the breaking point sounds”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Aggressive

What You Can Expect: A thrashing, in-your-face number garnished with a hint of dub-step.

.

Track: “I’ll Be Gone”

Sample Lyric: “It’s time you let me go”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Ballad

What You Can Expect: An anthemic radio number that features heavy drums and urgent vocals.

.

Track: “Castle of Glass”

Sample Lyric: “I’m only a crack in this castle of glass”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Ambient

What You Can Expect: A combination of synth and acoustic guitar that creates an atmospheric rocker.

.

Track: “Victimized”

Sample Lyric: We didn’t write one down because we were so shaken by the track’s aggression.

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Metallic

What You Can Expect: Linkin Park’s heaviest song yet, a screaming, heavy rock song that may surprise you.

.

Track: “Roads Untraveled”

Sample Lyric: “The love that you lost wasn’t worth what it cost and in time you’ll be glad it’s gone”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Heartbreak

What You Can Expect: A piano-driven ballad that even features some chimes.

.

Track: “Skin To Bone”

Sample Lyric: “Ashes to ashes, dust to dust”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Hypnotic

What You Can Expect: An electro-driven rhythmic number that goes hard on the experimentation.

.

Track: “Until It Breaks”

Sample Lyric: “You woke the devil that I thought you’d left behind”

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Introspective

What You Can Expect: One of the softer tracks on the album, centered on synth melodies.

.

Track: “Tinfoil”

Sample Lyric: This track is instrumental, so…

Word We Wrote Down To Describe It: Ambient

What You Can Expect: An intro between tracks that also delves into experimental noises.

.

Track: “Powerless”

What You Can Expect: Unfortunately the CD didn’t work so we didn’t get to hear this one.

[FearOfTheDuck]

Cannot wait for Victimized. Have a feeling that one will be played live.

 

“You woke the devil that I thought you’d left behind” from Until it Breaks is one of my favourite LP lyrics to date, that makes me think so much..

[lgr]

they're leaving that job up to me right now

Yo peeps, just watching MTV News (Australia) and they are saying that they'll have a 'Linkin Park exclusive' later in the week. The timing would suggest that it's the Burn It Down video - but given that rumors are circulating about a possible headline appearance at the Soundwave music festival next year, it could be that too. Either way, just a heads up so peeps with Foxtel can keep an eye out.

Sweettttttttttttttt any idea on a particular day?

[HybridThe0ry97]

Pez is awesome.

[lgr]

Not too sure I don't have Foxtel at home so couldn't check - especially because they never gave a solid date/time. I'd assume it was just the BURN IT DOWN music video premiere, but would be awesome if someone could confirm that!
