LPPRJKT4 Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 Chester actually writes? U didn't know that? Lol yeah he wrote most of the songs on the album, then Ryan and Amir helped with corrections and all. Loving the new song we have, hope we can get an audio rip from it?

RedZero Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 (edited) Hope this video clears it up for a few, even though Chester stated it before, that LP is very important to him, that they always come first, and that he wouldn't have even done Dead By Sunrise if it was going to jeopardize his relationship with LP. Can't wait for this album. Plus it'll help with the wait for the new LP. Edited August 24, 2009 by RedZero Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subs Posted August 24, 2009 Share Posted August 24, 2009 (edited) Now begins the game for knowing which song is the one in the background! (lol) No: Let Down Crawl Back In My Suffering Fire It really doesn't fit Walking in Circles either, I cant really say the same for In the darkness mind, if it was anyone song that we knew, it would be that Scratch that. Its playing throughout the whole vid. Vocals could have been removed but i doubt it. Could this be the instrumental ? I dunno, i cant see a non vocal track making the cut, but then again, maybe chester just sings harmonies for the duration of the track.

They've definitely been using a lot of instrumentals of songs that do actually have singing, in these vids. Crawl Back In for instance.

sotrix Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 ... he wrote most of the songs on the album, then Ryan and Amir helped with corrections ... Judging by the first single, I assumed that Chester simply added a melody to a random string of over cliched, utterly elementary, words that don't even come close to rhyming. Ryan and Amir must have dropped out of high school after failing English. I'm sure they're used to failure in general, that would explain their appearance.

Geki Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 Hence the weak lyrics to crawl back in. Mike writes a lot of really bad lyrics too. You always bash Chester. I mean...a lot of the lyrics on the FM albums were cringe worthy IMO. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sotrix Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 ... a lot of the lyrics on the FM albums were cringe worthy ... Whether one considers the lyrics weak or quotable, every track off Rising Tied album TOLD A STORY! They served a purpose and, at the very least, made sense. I bet most of your "cringe" moments were set off by SOB members ... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mike writes incredible lyrics. His lyrics outside of LP are 100x better than his LP lyrics. His lyrics are dumbed down so much for LP. Lies is in every verse it seems lol. Reading My Eyes...his Xero shit...even the Hybrid Theory demos...then Fort Minor...his lyrics outside of LP are better than his LP ones in my opinion.

Geki Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 I guess it's just the Chester fan coming out in me. Mike does write a lot of really good lyrics, fuck, I thought Minutes To Midnight as a whole lyrically was amazing and the best work the band has ever done. I guess the songs on the FM album that were cringe worthy to me were Petrified, Where'd You Go, There They Go and some of Believe Me. I don't think SOB were talented writers at all so that didn't really help for me. I'm not saying you guys are wrong, I just think that both Mike and Chester are talented in their own different ways, that's why together, they make the best band in the world, LP.

Joe_lp Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 well... everyone can write it's not a big deal, maybe some ppl identify with chester lyrics because the stories (like me) his lyrics are deeper and other ppl just like what mike writes, that's it. Chester actually writes? what is a good writer for you? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most singles are watered down to an extent which is why I'm not being overcritical of crawl back in because I understand it is a single.

They served a purpose and, at the very least, made sense. I bet most of your "cringe" moments were set off by SOB members ... The only good thing about FM is its instrumental side. Linkin Park have only three lyrically great songs: Breaking The Habbit (written by Mike), The Little Things Give You Away (written by Chester) and Leave Out All The Rest (written by both). Pretty much all of Grey Daze stuff is great from lyrical standpoint.Mike is a talented painter, but he is not really a good rapper or lyricist.

NoSunToday Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) Ryan and Amir must have dropped out of high school after failing English. I'm sure they're used to failure in general, that would explain their appearance. I'm sorry to disappoint you, but at least Amir graduated and attended UCLA... But in the end, Chester is basically the lyricist, isn't he? Anyway, it's very subjective whether you like lyrics or not, isn't it? Even "weak" lyrics can touch you, if you have a personal connection to them. I can't really identify with Mike's FM lyrics as well, but that doesn't mean they're not good! I don't say CBI has got the best lyrics, that's just not so, but that doesn't mean a person cannot write! As many people said before, it's a single, and it sounds like one.

Pretty much all of Grey Daze stuff is great from lyrical standpoint. Mike is a talented painter, but he is not really a good rapper or lyricist. Funny, I think Leave Out All The Rest is one of their most cliché lyrics, I really think they destroy the song. But the other two are quite good, yes. I think Papercut (MS), In Between (MS) and Part of Me (MS) are some of the best just to mention a few. But this just proves the fact that lyrics are very subjective to every person, and you can never really judge who's the better writer.

GraDoN Posted August 25, 2009 Share Posted August 25, 2009 (edited) given up is imo the weakest song lyrically on mtm and my least favorite on the album , bio's rapping being the best imo. But yeah chester aint the best at writing songs even though i love some of the grey daze songs lyrically. Donno if he wrote them all though. got to say that 26 lettaz in da alphabet is probably their best song lyrically, i mean with lines like "i got lots of friends so i dont need pets" you cant go wrong. And the lyrics speak truth e.g "i wear a shower cap so i dont get wet" and "i put on my shoes so my feet dont hurt" Edited August 25, 2009 by GraDoN Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
