KeysToTheLinkinPark

Luckily this song is placed right between Heavy Is The Crown and Casualty, their heaviest song on the record. 

Anyone else who is an LPU member got an mail? Just out of curiosity, cause I did not receive such a mail.

Bruh how should one decide what to order an what not. Artwork etc. look amazing.

Could be auto-generated chapters? YouTube does that sometimes and it doesn't always fully get what each part should be called

Now that you say that, that could be true and I remember seeing similar things for different concert videos with time stamps. Nothing to focus on tbh.

Didnt see anyone mentioning this but the "From Zero" livestream on youtube (the first live show) has chapters with weird names.... New album tracklist?

 

Intro

Emptiness

Control

Turn It Back

Cant Be Out

Hold On

Trapped In

Cross

Memory Of Time

Don't Turn Your Back

Paranoia

Throw It Away

 

See it for yourself:

 

Those are clearly phrases from each song. Obviously „Don’t turn your back on me“ —) I won’t be ignored (— is Faint.

But not sure why they did it this way and not just wrote the normal song names on those time stamps.

Phoenix, Arizona...

So posibbly only Emily on vocals in this track

Haven't thought about it but by shooting a video only with her, it makes sense

So perhaps we are getting a hint in one of those major cities in Asia. Tokyo or Jakarta.

Idk about that last one. Slipknot is touring now and they have 4 members over 50. If they can still do it with all the energy that goes into their live shows, LP can do it if they want. They’ll just reduce their schedule and not do too many back to back shows probably.

Metallica is s still out there rocking the heck out of the world. You may hear that James is not 40 anymore but they are doing great. Hope lp will be out there for a while.

in any situation in life its sad when try so hard to make something nice and then it fails.

 

she is so done w Dead Sara plus they got no fans and theu wont come back for the few fans that they just obtained.

They might play a show here and there just for fun but it sounded like an unspoken truth as well for everyone of them. Like they realised that it didn’t work out the last what 15 years and it didn’t with their newest music. It’s great music but they stagnated to a point that it was frustrating for her. She even said something like this.

I think dead sara can have a brighter future with the massive new exposure they got because of Emily. But yeah I mean time wise they are kinda screwed because now they have to depend on Emily being available. It's not impossible, she could do what Chester did when he was both in LP and STP, but that's almost no life and that's the reason Chester quit STP because he couldn't spend time with his family. On september 5th Dead Sara posted on social media that they would be back in the future but the way Emily talked about Dead Sara in the podcast gave me the impression that she is not looking back at dead sara. Let's see

Dead Sara was a great band but nothing wont change for them.

 

Best thing they could do is not wait for Emily and find another vocalist. 

It definitely felt like, and she said it like „ok I pushed really hard for that last album and it went nowhere“. It really sounded like she wanted to do something else besides Dead Sara anyway. 
Well guess what girl, it worked out lol.

What a great conversation! Quite a lot of stuff for LinkinPedia.

It's incredible how the band's comeback has brought them attention they hadn't had in the last few years before the hiatus. Maybe the last time they were in the mainstream in a similar way was with the release of Minutes to Midnight.

 

I don't think the band had any idea of the commercial success this comeback would cause either.

 

I hope it's not just because of the novelty factor and that it lasts for a few years.

It will defenitely level off in the upcoming years. Perhaps they prove me wrong but they will definitely maintain their level of fame and might compared to what they had in 2017 and the years before.

This is the time schedule for this year edition with Slipknot and SOAD headlining (the same way and order that LP and Metallica is doing in 2025)

Thanks for sharing. Wanted to google that schedule myself. Looks like hell lol

Not many people understand how big LP actually is im actually surprised about this comeback being this succesful i was afraid that the fans wouldnt accept anyone but Chester and having bad sales or losing their headlining status but actually they came back stronger.

Thoughts that are justified. You well known voice is no longer there and there is an rather unknown girl singing now. So being in the band it is only normal to think about how many people you can still reach with the new line up. Apparently it is at a scale it last was in, what, 2007? They might even reach new people now with how social media works nowadays. Not sure if it could get bigger than ever before but it's definitely massive right now. 

And yes, bands like Bad Omens and Sleep Token are rising stars and perhaps the upcoming big bands of Rock and Metal. But dethroning LP? Not sure if that will ever happen. As big as LP is, they would still open for Metallica (as they do here and did in 2015 at Rock in Rio USA). lol

a guy in the comments said that 3DG deserved the headlining spot instead of LP

 

lol i dont like or hate that band but its very unlikely that a band like that could pack a 40k arena or could do a stadium show like LP. 

 

Normal comments tbh. Saw those same comments under Bad Omens and Sleep Tokens Post about their show with LP. lol

What a lineup. Only problem with this festival is, how can you possibly keep making this sort of lineup a one-day event 😂

Perhaps some bands are just physically there but won't play cause a day has 24 hours, not one hour more or less and they won't have time to play 😂

I agree that the "start with Mike, then intro Emily" aspect was very deliberate w/ respect to the debut single, but Mike already said it existed pre-Emily and Dave as others pointed out. 

I'm definitely interested to hear how all the FZ songs relate in terms of when they were written, and if any were from OML sessions in 2017 or earlier that would be very interesting. I can definitely hear OML-esque harmonies in HITC, I'm sure at least one or two tracks will feel like that album in some way (but with "heavier" production). If OEO feels like a OML song it'll be really cool to have that on the same album as HITC which is essentially a Meteora track 

Oh god we are already starting with abbreviations for Over Each Other 😂 songs not even out

My guess is that Mike and Brad had sessions with many musicians since 2019, not necessarily for Linkin Park. And they created some seeds/demos.
When the band evolved to what it is now and they worked on those seeds for the album, all those musicians have to be credited too.

Had the same thought/theory. Basically tons of stuff was created over the last 7 years. I can't imagine how much. We saw what Mike is able to do in those Twitch streams. I don't wanna know how much more shit he created in the off time. And tons of stuff with other artist that may or may not need to be credited.

I think so too..

 

They're in the mood that they finished From Zero but they have enough energy for, at least, starting to write a follow up. 

If they get a good feeling out of touring due to hanging out with each other for most of the upcoming year and keep that creativity up. I don't see them taking a 3 year gap for LP9. More likely the classic 2 year gap like they had from ATS to THP.

Great Interview. Their support and love for LP is so great to see. Perhaps putting them (Julien K) on tour as one of an opener again would be cool again.

Another great episode.

Yes. I like live more than studio because you can hear more guitars than electronics. I wish if studio version was mixed like Meteora in 2003 with louder guitars. The song would sound much better than sounds now.

That's the same problem with Rebellion for me. Those synths are so up front that the guitar work is so in the back where it should not be.
