nikolajlaulp Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) I'm fucking excited. But I'm afraid that some people dont understand what the band mean. Because i think alot of people expect it to sound like HT and M, but I'm pretty sure it's not going to at all.

stl22 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Don't get me wrong, I like the guitars a lot and I like Hybrid Theory through Minutes to Midnight more than A Thousand Suns. However, I still like A Thousand Suns and the way I see it, it's like they've come too far in their sound evolution to go back now. I don't think it's going to sound JUST like Hybrid Theory by any means, but I still see this as a step back in the evolution process and to me it's like, how can they tell us two years ago that they're going through this great change in sound and they're sick of the nu-metal sound, then go right back and go back to it. I can't help but think that money/sales/popularity played a big role in this. Sure, maybe they just wanted to bring back guitars, etc. but you can't tell me that when they saw less album sales and half-filled arenas (at least the show I went to), that played a part in the decision to partly revert back to old ideas. Again, I didn't hate A Thousand Suns, but it was probably my least favorite album in terms of individual songs, but I see this new transition of sound as being forced based on what they saw in fan support, rather than what they WANT to do, like Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns were.

ChuckCheese Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 Don't get too excited guys, this album still isn't going to sound like HT or Meteora. If anything, it'll still be more like ATS, just as they've said "more upbeat and big choruses". Do NOT take this interview out of context and think that they''re going back to nu-metal. That would just be stupid and pointless. Regardless, this is very exciting news and I can't wait to see what they have in store as summer draws closer.

Qwerty18 Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 (edited) I have the feeling some people are getting it wrong. I don't see it at all like a step back to Nu metal. Seriously, I see zero chances of getting songs like Forgotten, By Myself, Hit The Floor, or Don't Stay again. Apparently, if what they've said so far is true, the new album will be more of an uptempo record, while the last two were mid-tempo records, and in that way, it would reconnect with the old "full of energy"' LP. You can be "heavy and fast" without sounding nu-metal. And it wouldn't be a step-backward IMO.

Obviously, there is almost no way we're getting songs like that. Honestly, I see it as a cross between Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns, but with less slow songs. I just feel like bringing back more guitars is kind of their way to get more older fans interested again. In my opinion, instead of just doing what THEY want to do, like Minutes to Midnight and A Thousand Suns, they are letting fans tell them what to do a little bit. Either way, the album is still going to sound great, and I'm very excited.

AParallelogramInTheSand Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 I'm thinking that musically, it's gonna sound like a mix of Sum41's Screaming Bloody Murder, LP's ATS, and throw in a bit of Rise Against's Siren...Counter Culture.

Just saying... And more guitars doesn't necessarily means more heavy guitars. LP could experiment with tons of guitar pedals to get weird noises /original guitar textures. See what bands like Joy Formidable do with guitar pedals, it's pure awesomeness.

Sure it will sound nothing like HT or Meteora but I feel the songs will be heavy maybe like Given Up, and they will be upbeat kinda like Waiting For the End and maybe fast like the said, a long the lines of Sum 41's new album Screaming Bloody Murder where the songs have slow and fast parts Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/8313-chester-in-kerrang/page/2/#findComment-157297 Share on other sites More sharing options...
JozM Posted March 21, 2012 Share Posted March 21, 2012 We can speculate all we want but we're obviously not going to know how the album is going to sound like until its released.

Op4blushift Posted March 22, 2012 Share Posted March 22, 2012 I really hope bringing back guitars doesn't mean boring ass distorted powerchords from the first two records, because that would be a real step backwards. I mean there is so much more you can do with guitars. I sorta hoped that LP would go even more experimental with the next record, but it looks like its not happening. Oh well, I'm sure I'll still enjoy it. Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/8313-chester-in-kerrang/page/2/#findComment-157311 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too easy and too generic judgement. If distorted guitars are used the right way and in the right moment, they can be very pleasant.

That's what the person you quoted was referring to. Now, let's not blow this interview out of proportion. We're not getting Hybrid Theory 3 (not that anyone said we would). "More guitars", considering what LP has been doing the past few years, probably just means "more prominent guitars" because ATS was covered in guitars, but in a subtle, quieter fashion that added to the soundscapes the album built. I think what Chester is trying to convey is similar to what Nine Inch Nails did in regards to The Fragile and With Teeth - The Fragile was an epic two-disc, two-plus-hour masterpiece with numerous overarching themes, and a loose storyline throughout the album, tied together by repeating motifs and complex soundscapes. With Teeth, on the other hand, was most definitely an album of songs - some of them shared themes, sure, but there wasn't an overarching theme that tied it all together. The songs all stood on their own. What I was most interested in was Chester's mentions of the lyrical content; glimmers of hope, of positivity. That's something I'm not used to seeing with LP. That's what I'm definitely most interested to hear more about.

Geki Posted March 23, 2012 Share Posted March 23, 2012 I don't understand why all you ATS lovers think this album will sound like ATS. All the interviews leading up to this album since the very first one say differently. ATS is not LP's sound. Neither are the other albums, they always do something different than before. This new album will not sound like ATS, nor will it sound like any others either. It's it's own album. Phoenix said aggressive vocals, Chester says guitars are back, Mike says big electro sound and not afraid to make music like old LP, etc. Quote Link to comment https://lplive.net/forums/topic/8313-chester-in-kerrang/page/2/#findComment-157338 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't forget, LP always does something different. It won't be Hybrid Theory Part 3, either. Honestly, I'm expecting an album instrumentally similar to MTM, but with ATS lyrics.

I haven't read a single post saying that. I've seen people hoping it'll sound like ATS, but no, everything we've heard so far in interviews and such indicates that they're moving away from the ATS sound and to a harder, heavier sort of deal. I personally wouldn't mind an album similar to ATS, but I wouldn't beg for it either and I won't shit on an album that's not ATS 2. I'm interested in hearing how the electronic elements will manifest themselves in a heavier album, personally. I think that has the potential to make a fuckton of fans happy.
