martinez Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 Today a very interesting podcast containing a conversation of Mike and Emily was shared on liveone.com. The description of it says: Just a few weeks before the reveal, Mike Shinoda and Emily Armstrong sat down to discuss what life has been like for the both of them while trying to keep Linkin Park’s return a secret, Emily joining the band, and the creative process behind their new album From Zero. You can listen to the podcast here.

Qwerty18 Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 That's a must listen. Great dive into how they experienced the last few years on a personal level, with a few details about the new album as well.

ScottiePippo Posted October 17 Share Posted October 17 They talk about how they could have released way more songs on From Zero but chose to narrow it down to just 10. I'm so excited. They definitely have more music in store. They also name a few demos that are are not on the final tracklist. The way Emily talks about Dead Sara makes me think that band is over Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17692-from-zero-a-conversation-with-mike-shinoda-and-emily-armstrong/#findComment-335453 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Best thing they could do is not wait for Emily and find another vocalist.

ScottiePippo Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 I think dead sara can have a brighter future with the massive new exposure they got because of Emily. But yeah I mean time wise they are kinda screwed because now they have to depend on Emily being available. It's not impossible, she could do what Chester did when he was both in LP and STP, but that's almost no life and that's the reason Chester quit STP because he couldn't spend time with his family. On september 5th Dead Sara posted on social media that they would be back in the future but the way Emily talked about Dead Sara in the podcast gave me the impression that she is not looking back at dead sara.

JZLP-Benningstrong Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 Also Emily is not that young i dont think that she will *waste* his goldeb era of vocals w Dead Sara. She will make history with LP cant wait for LP9 it will be more experimental.

It definitely felt like, and she said it like „ok I pushed really hard for that last album and it went nowhere“. It really sounded like she wanted to do something else besides Dead Sara anyway. Well guess what girl, it worked out lol.

They might play a show here and there just for fun but it sounded like an unspoken truth as well for everyone of them. Like they realised that it didn’t work out the last what 15 years and it didn’t with their newest music. It’s great music but they stagnated to a point that it was frustrating for her. She even said something like this.

Justin Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 3 hours ago, ScottiePippo said: The way Emily talks about Dead Sara makes me think that band is over I wouldn’t rule out the possibility of them doing something in the future, but LP just by its very nature is her main project now. They’re a global brand and will take most of her time. When she is home and LP has a break, that’s her time to relax and be with family. Dead Sara will definitely be a side project to work on whenever there’s an extended break from LP rather than another band that she splits her time with equally. That’s why there was only one FM album and one DBS album. She said the other members of the band were supportive, which is nice.

Qwerty18 Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 (edited) So, it seems like the sessions with Emily and Colin had been going on for quite a while already and solidified as a 5 units, before Brad warmed up to it and joined. By extension, it seems that Brad, for a while, was in that weird position of "Alright, the 3 guys are in, Rob is out. What do I do ?". Must have been a challenging situation to be in. And I am so glad he eventually joined!

Soeffingnaive92 Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 (edited) About Dead Sara, they are a good band and it’s Emily’s love project but it must be frustrating to NEVER make the big step. If you join one of the biggest bands of the last 25 years with billions on streams/views and 100M copies sold it’s natural to kind of put aside a project that never took off. Like, on Spotify “Weatherman”, Dead Sara’s most popular song, has like 12 M streams, which is less than Until it breaks… Edited October 18 by Soeffingnaive92 Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/17692-from-zero-a-conversation-with-mike-shinoda-and-emily-armstrong/#findComment-335476 Share on other sites More sharing options...
juancpin Posted October 18 Share Posted October 18 (edited) Does anybody know if there's video version of this? I love to analyze people's body talking when they express their words. It helps me knowing the person. I'd love to know Em better and see her talking this long.

Hi everyone! Does anybody know if there's video version of this? I love to analyze people's body talking when they express their words. It helps me knowing the person. I'd love to know Em better and see her talking this long. Video doesn't exists. If you could next time edit your post if you want something to add instead making double post, it would be awesome.

solidss Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 Emily mentions a track they were writing in the studio titled "Breathing Underwater" which doesn't appear to be on the final version of the album.

Stranger Posted October 19 Share Posted October 19 Quoting @NimaLP from the chatbox: "So just finished listening to it. To sum up some big points: Demo titles with Emily (Unshatter, Vertigo, Breathing Under Water), Casualty is a heavy one and Emily came up with chorus lines, Rock in Rio didn't work out because they wanted to announce early, Overflow is Emily's fav and took many rewrites to be finished."
