They'll want mike on it so it is still recognizable as LP, but also will want to introduce the new vocalist. 0% chance the single will be a solo vocal a la Invisible or Shadow of the Day imo, it will be more like Waiting for the End with distinct parts from both singers This was how blink-182 approached it when Matt Skiba was filling in for Tom Delonge. The first single (and most songs from that era, actually) featured both Matt and Mark Hoppus. You need something to anchor to the past of the band, while also showcasing what's different.

I know it hurts to see someone else on Chester's place but that's our reality. I was pretty fucking tired of WAITING and the time is Right. Whatever they do I'll be there IM FUCKING READY I'm fucking ready too lol At this point, anyone who says that it's wrong or disrespectful for LP to move forward with a new lead vocalist will never come around anyway. If they can't understand that it's not replacing Chester, but rather about honoring him by continuing on, there's nothing that can make them realize that at this point. It's been over 7 years now. There's no reason that the 5 other members of the band shouldn't be able to play together again as Linkin Park in front of the huge crowds that they've earned throughout their career. The reality of that means that there must be a new vocalist, since someone needs to sing Chester's parts. Chester's time with the band will never be forgotten, ever, but I'm also excited to see what a new vocalist could bring to the table creatively in future music! I'm just really excited to see what this new era brings.

That's not exactly "nothing" in my opinion. We also got an audio clip and an image, likely confirming a music video (maybe?) Also confirms that the 9/5 event isn't LPU only and we all can join in. I threw a tantrum after it hit 0 but this is what I feel is appropriate and awesome tease-wise Edited September 2 by AParallelogramInTheSand Grammar Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17263-countdown-on-linkinparkcom/page/28/#findComment-331748 Share on other sites More sharing options...

After 100 hours we got the hint for a 9/5 date. Then they released the LPU newsletter for the event and now 200 hours later it's 100% confirmed we are getting a live stream of the event on 9/5.

Yep, exactly what I was thinking. They'd be smart to release something that SOUNDS like Linkin Park too. The big creative swings are a big part of the fun of this band but for this comeback they should just release a massive arena rock single a la What I've Done or New Divide. Coming out of the gate with something like Heavy is going to turn a lot of people off, regardless of if the song is great or not, and i don't think they should risk that at this moment.

I'm not complaining, nor am I thinking it's bad or hating it. I thought there would be something more than just an image, but I already knew there wouldn't be, but I still wanted to create expectations. I'm looking forward to the 5th and happy with the band's possible return. Anyway, that's it...

I was wondering if Mike had cracked a modern sound that mixes rapping/singing and doesn't feel dated or trapped in rap rock after we saw the purple images that looks like he's doing vocals, not realizing they did that with WFTE really well. And with how long it's been, I can't help but hope for something that has some really special writing/production Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17263-countdown-on-linkinparkcom/page/28/#findComment-331767 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do it and post it lol I tried converting it into negative and can't see anything. I don't see what you guys see. Here is what I see quite clearly: - There is a silhouette of a person with their back turned to the camera - The person is holding their right hand close to the mouth, appears to be singing into a microphone - The person has a full head of short hair, possibly curly hair. Mike's hairline 100% doesn't look like that. He shaves sides and back I don't see any other people, whether it's a purple version or negative Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17263-countdown-on-linkinparkcom/page/28/#findComment-331770 Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally don't see them making a comeback with a ballad-type song, that would likely lack a bit impact. The context calls for something higher in energy imo, but maybe it's also personal preferences giving me a bias ^^ Edited September 2 by Qwerty18 Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17263-countdown-on-linkinparkcom/page/28/#findComment-331771 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Soeffingnaive92 Posted September 2 Share Posted September 2 I can clearly see Mike screm on the left of that pic, maybe there's another figure on the right turning the back to camera... we will see, I am super excited. To be honest, I would be happy with a new song that sounds like a more aggressive Already Over or something like that, with an alternation between Mike and the new vocalist Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17263-countdown-on-linkinparkcom/page/28/#findComment-331775 Share on other sites More sharing options...
