thesungoesdown Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I hope we get to hear some of those songs that don't make the album as well. They put so much time into making then, i never really understood why they just lock some songs away in the vault ( i.e. Japan) Regardless i'm PUMPED. I'm SO happy LPU 9 is around the corner, otherwise i'd be going nuts waiting for the new album right about now Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoSunToday Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 The only thing I can think of are all those complaints about Chester not focusing on LP...THIS sounds like the opposite... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaiNt Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I wonder if they'll play across the line on the new tour(s)? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZZY Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 That was an awesome update from Mike! Longer songs im digging! Hopefully they have awesome lyrics and not half the tracks are just instrumentals. But i say they will cut some down to 3-4. I really dont want another 12 track record. Over 12 and thats a new step!

spraypaintninkpens Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 TLTGYA was one of LP most epic song they've ever written. SOTD was a pretty darn good one. not lame at all Those songs are so generic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpikeMinoda Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 that sounds awesome! leght of 4-5 mins, thats what i like very much, now we just have to wait for some more infos, so it looks that chester is really working with LP and touring with DBS at the same time. thats what i like to hear!!! can't wait until we get the news the new record is done and the release date will be ... !!that will be the best news for the next year together with tour dates !!

zuben7o7 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Good update, nice to know something is going on. However, the title is misleading. You make it sound like there are 5 songs already shelved and packed and thats not what the blog from MS says... it says they have 5 they are trying to get finished. Big difference. Either way, its good news but considering they have been in the studio for a complete year, I'd say thats pretty unacceptable. Also, if ANYONE thinks Chester is able to put 100% to LP right now with all these DBS promotions/shows around the world thing is smoking some serious cannabis. I'm not downing Chester and I'm sure he's doing everything he can, but he is gonna be milking the DBS cow for as long as he can. Either way, good update from MS but they should be way further along. And with New Divide and seeing the maturity of the band, it makes sense for them to be straying into longer songs. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FaiNt Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Those songs are so generic. why because they are slow? not hard metal songs? please Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygolfer Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Ok so...If it took them around a year to make 5 songs they really like that have a chance of making the album then I seriously doubt that we'll even have this album next year...How can Chester say that it may be out by June? I dont get it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
OZZY Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 MTM making process doubled for this record LP is really pissing me off. They take so long to create the damn record and its over in vertually 35-45mins. So i think we're due for a record that will keep us entertained over the hour mark! ... Also, wtf is up with Mike? He said CD's only allow 80mins? I have CD's where i can place any amount of tracks on (Virtually limitless time). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 one of these days, they should just give us groups of 5 new songs every few months or so Mike mentioned one day he eventually wanted to give fans 3-4 new songs every few months so they can continually tour while making new music at the same time. Thoughts on this update: - Woot @ longer songs; that's badass - I'm not gonna lie, they are a lot further behind than I thought they were...I was expecting them to have 15-20 actual song songs now that they're tidying up for the CD...didn't know they were at this stage - Please no 12 track CD again. There are numbers higher than 12. Seconded what Preston said - it's taken them a full year and they've accomplished: - New Divide (2-3 weeks) - Short summer tour of a month and a half (Transformers gig included) - 5 songs they're "trying to focus on" Atreyu hit the studio right before LP and just dropped their new CD. The Bravery has new material, 10 Years is debuting new material live in December and have been in LA mixing the CD recently, Hawthorne Heights is about to drop a new record.... LP takes way too long in making an album in my opinion. Chester can't focus with LP right now...like I said before, DBS is really slowing down the album process. I seriously doubt the record is coming out in 2010 if all they've done so far is this. Sounds like a January-March 2011 release in my opinion maybe. Thank god for LPU 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ThePretender Posted November 16, 2009 Author Share Posted November 16, 2009 Edited and moved Thanks! I couldn't change the topic name xD. So if we got an album with 12-13 songs...It might push over an hour of music... I hope at this rate they will be mixing the album by Feb or Mar. And what if they decide to put 9 songs on the album? Good update, nice to know something is going on. However, the title is misleading. You make it sound like there are 5 songs already shelved and packed and thats not what the blog from MS says... it says they have 5 they are trying to get finished. Big difference. Go here and tell us what the title says. ^^ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only difference with LP is that they don't suck! WHAT UP! No but with LPU9's awesomeness, the wait for the album won't be as bad. Now that (or what it seems like now) they are really working on the album, and that should speed up the process more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LPU 9 will make it go by a lot quicker and it does seem now they are fully focused and in gear. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OZZY Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) I cant be fucked waiting for this album. LP has lost a shitload of respect from me. Im sick of waiting 3-4 for albums. They're just not worth it. Fuck the live shows with 1 new track, and 1 older track played. I demand a single from the first bunch of tracks done! Even if they're not on the album they can be promo singles! Edited November 16, 2009 by OZZY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
murphyLP Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 It´s good to receive any kind of news about the new album but... It makes me sad to know that we will have to wait forever to get a new album!!! their working progress is just a shame for a band of their size. They keep talking about how they change their way of writing and understand music, how mature they are right now and bla bla bla... but still take 3 years to get an album of 40 minutes. They need to know that they are a rock band and like we have our daily jobs their daily job is write music or making shows. If they are not making shows they need to be making new music. Stop all these crap other activities they have and start to care more (and maybe change) about the 3 years that we have to wait to get a new album.

OZZY Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 (edited) After a year. They've only done that much! How have they been rushed? There just damn fucking lazy! I've put out 3-5 albums worth of material since Mid June this year. Because i generate my idea's a lot better than LP's stale old ways. Even though its easy to write material for my project i am picky at what i release. Edited November 16, 2009 by OZZY Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Papelbon Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 TLTGYA was one of LP most epic song they've ever written.

Michelbeats Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 I'm really excited with this news They're experimenting alot with their music. Experiments take times, it's an trail and error phase. Plus every artist got their own work ethics, the other might knock faster an album, and the other takes his time. I personally prefer the second one. why stop making tracks if creativity keeps flowing, it just might be they'll make a new song what's better than they recently got. just my opionon on the 'it's taking them to long comments' Peace!

Eddie Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Great news!!!! I'm so excited hearing this one "average song length on these is around the 4-5 minute mark"! The new album is going to rock!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DarkViper30000 Posted November 16, 2009 Share Posted November 16, 2009 Hmm... with all these posts I can round up a bit of things. 1) Linkin Park takes fucking too long to produce an album because they focus on live tours. Because of that, respect and popularity deteriorated despite the live shows. A lot of great artists did not go live frequently because they focus on albums. Which side are you on? 2) Linkin Park wants their music to be very special. That's why they produce it very slowly. 3) Michelbeats's post makes sense. 4) ND is released quickly because it contained most of the elements in M2M. They mastered the format and had not much trouble doing it. 5) LP Underground albums play a part in keeping us from boredom. 6. Meteora -> M2M = Super long experimenting time (Can't blame them) 7. Rushing sucks - turns the music crappier than M2M Finally, after all, Mike said that the new album will be electronic rock and newer. Patience is our friend.
