I wonder if theres a coincidence that the name of this topic has the word Horizon.

 

It's cool that the release of the single is the 23 of this month.

 

We will have teasers really soon.

Yeah, I was thinking the same earlier today. It might be a hint

I forgot to add it here, but here are a couple edited screenshots of the lyric sheets of "Out Of Reach" and "Invisible" from the video of the lyrics for "Heavy":

Unfortunately, you can barely make out any of the words on the lyric sheets.

Lost was teased quite a while before it dropped right? I feel like the end of this month is too soon for a new single given the home page of LP is still all about M20 with no hint at anything else. Unless they've just decided to not do the teaser marketing this time for some reason

Yes, you are right. It was teased on Monday, February 6th, 2023, 4 days before it was released on Friday, February 10th, 2023. Considering we know when the new song is going to come out, I have a feeling that this is, most likely, going to a similar situation like with what happened with "Lost".

Nothing from THP? lol 

 

That album was a disgrace anyways, so. no need to be acknowledged.

I think it's disappointing..

But tbf the promotion of the album was underwhelming. Seemed like an underground record. GATS was the lead and didn't even get a proper music video. UIG got two and then Joe didn't want to participate in directing them anymore. OML got the promo THP needed and even though Heavy was played over and over again, it didn't appear to me that the album was promoted that well either besides that stripped-down/unplugged + interview format that mostly Mike and Chester did. I think the reception came with the passing of Chaz. I wonder how TTM would've ended up charting if it were released as a single.

Nah, THP was half-cooked, ATS-wannabe record and I hate that with passion. The production was terrible, Chester's vocal performance was obnoxious, thin and underdeveloped. ALITS is like a copy&paste of GATS. Rebellion and Drawbar+FM were the only decent songs of that album. It's a shame because I love Rebellion but it's part of the album that I hate and dislike makes me hate Rebellion too. I like Mike's vocal performance on Rebellion but that song should be the main creative direction for that album. 

 

THP is on my bottom list of LP discography. The creative direction is bold and edgy but the album sucked so hard.

THP seemed like a "Mike only" wish and the rest of the band and the label weren't big fans of it. 

 

Any possible marketing for OML was overshadowed by the vitriol received.

His wish came true because it turned out shit. THP was the product of his being too self-centred, too cocky with his creative idea that he's working with stuff in the vein of LT but threw that away because he want to make the most heaviest record to date. Jeez

For me the idea behind THP was the very last spark of creativity that the band had.

 

The way they talked about the project, the Collabs, everything was pretty badass.

 

I still remember the very first time that I Heard the leak of GATS.

 

It was a massive song.

The real problem w THP is that they needed a producer that actually knew how to work w a metal album.

 

With someone who actually knew what he was doing THP could have been one of the best albums of metal ever.

THP always be my top tier album in LP discography. OML always be the last one. THP is amazing album, but the label fkin hate it. they treated the album so badly and yes, they won the battle and LP forced and "have" to do OML which the 360 turns after the heaviest record! no matter what you guys think bout THP but it's a brave move by the band to make such records, it proves LP can be fkin hard and also fkin soft album. gonna play THP in a second.

THP has more skips than any LP albums. I'm still upset why WHITE NOISE never made to the cut and songs like Until It's Gone which is the worst song they released made to THP.

THP is dead last for me when it comes to studio albums. Most of the instrumentation just sounds the same from song to song, lacking in variety and of any unique distinction.
