After listening to the high quality mix on youtube, I do think it sounds better then when I first heard it. That being said, I still don't think the actual song was mixed/ mastered properly. The vocals just don't come through the mix at all and it takes away from some of the song's potential energy.

The actual guitar playing was very nice in the song, but the production quality was horrible IMO. The guitars sound nowhere near as nice as the ones heard on their first 3 albums and this mix sounds like something we'd get on an LPU CD or something. Not only that but the vocals just weren't performed well and the lyrics weren't really LP quality either. It just needed better production in general.

Now I feel stupid for being disappointed with BID when it came out

I think Astat means that there were worse remixes on Recharged than ALTNC as a song itself. I agree with him on that. I like most of Recharged a lot but I definitely have to be in the right mood to play it and some of the remixes are kind of awful.

Yeah, I forgot there was even a ALTNC remix EP. I don't even think I listened to all of them. To be honest though, the only remixes I loved on Recharged were the ones Mike did himself.

ALTNC isn't even the worst LP-related song to come out in the year 2013.

*cough*recharged*cough*

 

Sorry guys, I think I may be coming down with a cold.

The production sounds kind of sloppy IMO but maybe thats just the sound they're going for? Either way, I'm excited and I can't wait to actually hear the songs

Mr. Shinoda wouldn't just take a vacation if the album was in its final stages.

 

Unless...its already done...

The movie referenced in the LPA thread is probably referring to something that they're doing for Mall.

NOW I am excited. So pumped for something totally new. LT was the combination of all of their previous work, but now its time for more surprises!

No offense, but those girls should've rehearsed COG a little more. The thing sounded like a trainwreck at points. Just look at Chester's face xP

Merged.

You are awesome! Thanks! Totally forgot about this thread

it's a shame that one was forgotten about over a year ago xD

Funny pic I saw on instagram of Mike. I thought I'd do this to it lol. If mods think this is in the wrong section, feel free to move it, I don't care lol

 

Well ALTNC does have the same chord progression as WID and ND... Coincidence..?..Probably

 

I honestly could care less if LP had a song in the new Transformers. I don't want them to become "The Transformers band"

Primo was the only one that made a lasting impression on me. Definitely the stand out track in my opinion.

Is it wrong that part of me hopes the new album would take longer? I mean, ATS took 4 years and I thought it was flawless IMO, while LT took almost half of that and some of the songs were lacking. It just worries me that pushing out albums like this might reduce their overall quality. I don't know, I think I've just been more about quality rather than quanity.

Ah, I see now xD

The flyaway deal sounds great and all, but what is with everyone and these Nick Cage avatars? xD

This demo is so much better than the original IMO. I don't know why they didn't take this direction with it. It's so much more original sonically for them.

I feel like the only reason we aren't getting any good ATS/ LT demos is because the really good ones are saved for potential future albums. Other than that, I'm happy we got a fair amount of demos from past LPUCDs. It truly is better than nothing because I remember such a day when the LP community was starved for unreleased songs *cough*2008*cough*

I feel like this is the only award they ever win lol

The Rick Rubin remix sounds like it was made by a kindergardener. I was expecting a lot more coming from one of the most influential producers of the last 20 years.

One of the problems I have with all the Ghost Town videos is that even though their concepts and ideas are creative, they always seem like they're not able to fully execute them correctly in their videos. I think it mostly has to do with cinematography. The angles they choose always make it hard to comprehend what the point of the video is. If they showed longer clips of the digital city that developed the story and less of the random blue shit that ruins the video, then this would be a great video.

Really great interview! Glad to hear Chester was back in the studio with them making some music!

I was gonna make a sarcastic comment, but I would actually like to see what Joe can do on his own. I almost feel like his full potential is never reached in LP simply because it doesn't always call for a DJ

Either way the source was wrong because I see no video
