hahninator Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 If you're subscribed to the band's email list or follow them on social media, you have seen the announcement about brand new Minutes To Midnight merch. "To commemorate the 11th anniversary of Minutes To Midnight, we created a few new merch items featuring logos and symbols from the album cover and packaging." The four items include: - Black MTM band font logo shirt - White MTM band font logo shirt with "What I've Done" lyrics on the back - Black MTM LP logo shirt - Black MTM hoodie with band logo font The new merch can be purchased here: https://store.linkinpark.com Will you be picking up any of the items?

andreas215 Posted May 18, 2018 Posted May 18, 2018 (edited) I'm not very impressed by these shirts. They do not look very official to me. If you type "Linkin Park" into any unofficial online store then this is what comes up most of the time. Edited May 18, 2018 by andreas215 Quote
Geki Posted May 19, 2018 Posted May 19, 2018 Just bought the What I've Done shirt, which is extremely badass. I already own an identical hoodie except it doesn't say Minutes To Midnight above the Linkin Park logo, but it's literally a black pullover that looks identical. So I won't get that. Might buy another shirt later this week. Glad that they did this because Minutes To Midnight is by far their best album. It's cool that they are honoring it. A lot of new fans probably won't understand just how epic the shit was back in 2007/2008. Quote

Minutes to Midnight was seriously Linkin Park's most important album. The entire course of the band changed when they decided to ditch the nu-metal sound for that album. Quote
RentEznor Posted May 20, 2018 Posted May 20, 2018 I had a MTM shirt with a design from PR07, very cool. I wish these were better though, but maybe I'll pick one. Quote

I also like how with MTM, yes, they changed their sound drastically, but it still felt like ‘’Linkin Park’’ to me. And they still kept some of the heavier sound with a few tracks. I also genuinely liked the experimentation on the album. I felt like later albums kind of didn’t feel like that for me. Quote

Fantastic album and all of the bonus tracks, b-sides, session songs, etc are great. Some of the demos too. They did an awesome job. I bought the hoodie, the WID shirt, and the circle LP logo shirt.

stich Posted May 21, 2018 Posted May 21, 2018 I was going to buy the WID shirt, but I'm wondering if it's a preorder. The merch doesn't ship before june 11th right? Quote

No it's a pre-order meaning you buy it now and it will ship out that day or maybe a day after that or so. I think that's how it goes. Makes sense to do it that way because then they can make the shirts for the numbers of orders they have instead of just mass producing a shit ton of shirts and hoodies that might not sell. Quote
hahninator Posted May 21, 2018 Author Posted May 21, 2018 Yeah Geki is right. It'll ship around June 11. However, the last few items I had in this "preorder" style from the LP store shipped literally like, weeks before that. The CB pin came so fast, the Hollywood Bowl stuff came quickly, etc. It would not surprise me if I got a shipping notification tomorrow for this MTM stuff lol Quote
Geki Posted June 26, 2018 Posted June 26, 2018 My WID shirt came in the mail yesterday. Pretty damn epic shirt. Wearing it now. Good material, comfy, promotes the best album of all time, and awesome design. Can't complain. Quote
