it's interesting to have another POA demo i wonder if it will be so different, since we already have like 53 POA demos haha lol

 

so far very interesting i was expecting for more ATS demos but i dont care as long as we get FUCKING GOOD music

 

THX LP for putting this out every year

Just downloaded the digital copy now. I don't care if it just costed me 70 dollars. 5 MTM demos is very much so worth it. Will post a review once I listen to it all.

How should we go about discussing the songs, AndOne? I'm not trying to be snarky, I'm just curious. Are there spoiler tags here?

 

My copy's downloading now. This is the first time I've legitimately bought the LPU CD since 2009.

On my first listen through:

 

Homecoming: A great track with no vocals, but it has a very clear structure where to vocals should have gone. Very verse-chorus-verse-chorus. Very Linkin Park and very reminiscent of the MTM era stuff. Sorta uplifting vibe to it.

 

Points of Authority (Demo): I haven't ever heard this version, though other people said they have. I like the mixed-up verses and the new sink or swim part. Very different than the final version.

 

Clarity: Clanky/Electro intro sound neat, as the guitars slowly weave their way in the verse. The build up to the chorus is neat. Almost sounds like they were missing the lead guitars, drums, and vocals being tracked for this song.

 

Asbestos: Aggressive, fast, rap/rock track. Sorta reminds me of Given Up. Almost doesn't sound like Mike. Short and sweet song.

 

Bunker: Wierd electro intro with drums and scratches. Instrumental track, not intended to have vocals on it. Almost sounds like some samples of Session are in it. Clearly Session beat out this instrumental on MTM.

 

So Far Away: Wow. Mike singing on a 1998 track. Crazy. And he has full singing duties, he does the ENTIRE song. Aggressive guitars. With some polish, this could have been a great HT track or B-Side.

 

Pepper: Mellow intro/verse. Rockin' chrous. Nothing really special about the track. Bridge reminds me of listen to cicadas (bugs) in my backyard during the summer.

 

Debris: Big drums, Mike raps. Feels Fort Minor-ish. GANG VOCALS. Missing 2nd verse and Bridge. Nice song.

 

Ominous: Nice guitar intro. Blows up but not Nu-Metal, just rock. Instrumental, but has a vocal structure. Thee guitar is very prominent but not Nu-Metal heavy like normal LP songs from this era. Neat song, and very unique for the time in LP's life.

 

Forgotten: I'm not sure if this one has been heard yet or not, but it is pretty much what you'd think. A rough sounding 'Forgotten'. Some of the lyrics are changed. Nothing

 

Pretty awesome LPU CD this year. Some VERY unique songs on here and well worth the purchase.
