Spin Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 http://img21.imageshack.us/img21/4695/shinoda.jpg <= Posted in the comments of Mike's blog, made me laugh. Anyway, I don't even begin to have a theory about this, but sounds like the ride is just beginning. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

annare Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 I'm excited to see the new LP logo, hopefully this gif reveals it! Mike already said they weren't going to change it, at least for now. So don't expect a a new one with his album. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowThanatos Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 My speculation is that it is a 13 track album (potentially indicated by the 13 frame animated gif) titled “Site Two” (again indicated by the name of the image. it could just have been titled ‘message.gif’ but he may have purposefully named it ‘Site_Two.gif’). My dear Mike. I think that you are joking or just want to torture me. But I like it, so I’m immune to terror. I don’t think that I’m gonna screwed into that, right ? So I was sitting and wathing that strange thing. And I saw : 1. Nothing xD . 2. White dots … 3. An elephant (that elephant : http://tweetphoto.com/27276670 , I called him Mr Elephant xD) . 4. Letter ‘M’ like Mike or it’s 11. And 8. Album will be 11.08 ? or 08.11 ? 5. At the end there is an outline of letters ‘LP’ like Linkin Park . I make me totally crazy and I’m going to watch it every day . Maby someting is going to change And it will be my revenge on you ! xD Random post in the blog Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaneroks94 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Random post in the blogthe 13 song piece is very probable since just about all of their albums have been 13 songs. the title....not so much Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Concept album for sure. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zaneroks94 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Concept album for sure.hey, do you know anything that everyone else doesn't know about LP right now? Just curious since we're all so anxious and you seem to always know things beforehand. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 hey, do you know anything that everyone else doesn't know about LP right now? Just curious since we're all so anxious and you seem to always know things beforehand. Just look at what Mike has told you. He's said this is a journey, this is all part of it, he released a GIF image just like Trent did for Year Zero, he said he and Brad were listening to Dark Side Of the Moon the other day, they talked about a concept album a while back, and they have an epic new stage setup live. It all makes sense to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tschenneck Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 but what do you mean with a concept album? will they release b sides? sry but im disappointed... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bschneid194 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 the 13 song piece is very probable since just about all of their albums have been 13 songs. the title....not so much Actually, all their albums are 12 songs unless you want to count "Foreword" as a track from meteora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bschneid194 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Mike has said that this WILL be a concpet album. That's not a bad thing! It just the means that the songs will all relate to each other sorta like "American Idiot". Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPFreak64 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) but what do you mean with a concept album? will they release b sides? sry but im disappointed... This will help.....http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Concept_album.....nm...thanks Mark..lol. In a recent interview, Mike kinda stayed away from the concept album question when asked. He said something like "Where did you hear that?"....I'll try to find it.... Edited June 16, 2010 by LPFreak64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It just the means that the songs will all relate to each other sorta like "American Idiot". He actually said it would not after he said it will. They back-tracked on the whole concept album thing. But with what's happening now, it's definitely at least a bit of a concept. Or like Mike says a strong central theme. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not really backtracking, more that what was said previously was taken out of their context. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShadowThanatos Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Don't you think the album will be about animals, environment or just that elephant 8-} Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
coreydimond Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 The concept album is a very good and artistic development for Lp, Mikes artwork is a concept piece. Works very well if you ask me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LPFreak64 Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 (edited) While looking for a quote, I found this: Describing the record in more depth, Shinoda added: "This isn’t necessarily a record that tells a story about a character or anything like that, but I do hope the record has a sonic identity, from beginning to end, that’s distinguishable from the other stuff we’ve done and distinguishable from everything else out there." Source: Ultimate Guitar Sonic Identity? Sounds like a concept album to me.... Edited June 16, 2010 by LPFreak64 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hahninator Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 More than one person is mixing the CD. They have different people in there mixing different tracks every day and the band is picking what mixes they like the best out of those. Mike is one of the ones mixing. I think his friend Ethan (MTM DVD) is helping him with his. Neal Avron might be doing some, idk. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xefuzion Posted June 16, 2010 Share Posted June 16, 2010 Breaking news, LP will be using but seriously, the gif better be related to the big announcement. They could atleast have added some background ambient song like they did with MTM , to make it atleast a bit interesting. Its sad how they are going to hype this when they can't life up to it.
