GreyFox-AFCA Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 Great, love the song. Both the instrumental and Chester's lyrical delivery are amazing on this one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JZLP-NaughtyNottingham Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 This is one of the few songs that still had the spirit of LP, cool midset song. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Somebodyangry Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 They should release the acapellas and instrumentals for the whole OML album too. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JZLP-NaughtyNottingham Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 The instrumentals + acappelas are a really weird situation with LP... they released the ones from the least popular albums and the ones that people needed remain unreleased. specially the ones from HT and Meteora were the most needed... back then there was a huge remix community that needed those albums so bad.

Yeah it’s so weird that we got THP and LT instrumentals and acapellas on streaming services and no HT M and MTM which are the most successful albums by them. Like, we don’t have ITE or Numb instrumentals but we have War and UIB. So weird Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YRQRM0 Posted March 28 Share Posted March 28 I was gonna say, weird that this will exist but not for the rest of OML, also surprising they never did it for Lost or any M20 songs last year. A remix contest seems such an effective and simple engagement strategy these days Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Good thing I am in the middle of making a new EP so It was simply getting a rip of his acapella from the OG track 4 weeks ago off YouTube and working some studio magic around his vocals.

RayGun4200 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 I just got the notification for these on YouTube, pretty unexpected I think but very nice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DCrecelius Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 i think these are neat! always nice to dig into the layers of Chester vocals. as for the instrumental, i am still in love with Brad’s guitar work. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn’t say we’re devolving, we’re really just sharing what we think about the release. I wouldn’t complain personally but I’d like it if more songs had these, so we don’t have to rip the tracks with flawed AI that we pay for. Not a fan of OML as much as other things LP did. Now an official Acapella/instrumental of Lost would’ve had me jumping in my boots. But I’m happy and glad they’re still putting out stuff whatever it is I’m definitely willing to listen to it. I’ve still got my personal opinion that Meteora is a better album than OML. So I’m just not super stoked about a Friendly Fire instrumental and acapella. Doesn’t mean I’m not grateful for everything LP has given to us throughout all these years. And also, obviously but of course, being a fan doesn’t mean you have to love everything a band has ever created.

Like, they released a capella and instrumentals all the time in their career, they challenged fans with remix contests... I can get the criticism over Papercuts in general, I do think a GH in 2024 is kinda pointless, but a cashgrab for ... this ? As if Warner is making a lot of money out of A capella and instrumental FF on streaming. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody should be paying for AI vocal/instrumental separation at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Coizu Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 14 hours ago, RYG4R said: Another shitty cashgrab by WB. Please explain to me how they are going to make any impactful income from this? The couple of listens this gets is basically a rounding error that probably covers the cost it took to put this out. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even full multitracks for a lot of album songs. You don't need to use AI to get them and you don't need to wait for an official release. Unless you're talking about demos and b-sides. If that's the case, it would be unrealistic expecting the band to release instrumentals and acapellas for those. Friendly Fire got them because it's a single.

YRQRM0 Posted March 29 Share Posted March 29 (edited) Seems like the acapella outro might have been one of the big changes, I'm dying to hear the 2017 version now Also really cool to see Brad is still into working with their older material, I hope that means we get more releases of some OML stuff or maybe even stuff like LFTA Edited March 29 by YRQRM0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing confusing about that is not getting them for Lost, a single. Maybe it’s because it was on a “demo” CD idrk. Maybe we’ll still get them one day though.
