Your wildest LP conspiracy

[Trumtram]

I, for example, firmly believe that the rap verses in "Figure.09" were used because Chester wasn't able to record his intended singing parts at the end of the cycle alongside SIB and FTI because he still was too sick.

 

I can't exactly recall all the details to this assumption from the top of my head, though. But there is a rationale behind it!

 

What are your little LP conspiracies. You all have them... do you?

Mine is that Already Over was released as a decoy or a fake out to prevent leaks of the LP comeback from happening.

- That they threw the entire album in the advanced stage in the trash before ATS. Heavy but more experimental than THP. 

 

- The initial plan for the album after LT was to be even more electronic than LT, something more EDM oriented.

They had issues with Tom Morello/his label and that led to Drawbar being what it is and nothing more, because come on you have Tom Freakin Morello to jam with and all you come up with is a really good instrumental track that you could have easily  done without him.

Some people here though that Already Over hinted the end of Linkin Park, so I'm with you on this one. It worked as a decoy whether Mike likes it or not.

Totally, I mean it came out in late 2023 when LP 2.0 was already a thing and FZ was taking shape, so I am convinced AO was a way to deceive the fans attention from rumors/leaked news and stuff, like “Mike is doing his own thing now, he’s busy”

I have nothing to add, but reading these are very entertaining! I wonder what Chester's verse parts on figure.09 sounded like.
