  1. I actually didn't mind THP cycle before the album was released, I thought it was cool how we just got GATS randomly basically, but it wasn't smart on the band's part, IMO, a lot of fans didn't like that and it wasn't a strong first single in that sense. Mike even talked about it in that LPA Podcast mentioned above, he basically said that they intended for it to work a bit differently with the Project Spark thing and it just kind of fell apart and wasn't what the band thought it would be, something along those lines. The ATS cycle before the album release was awesome, too, so wasn't LT. I just hope they do a proper release this time, as in have a strong first single like BID ready to put out, not the way they did GATS as the first single for THP.
  2. Holy shit. This could be epic.
  3. Honestly, I actually kind of liked that, how they stayed silent. The studio updates are kind of annoying since we really don't get much info and each time you're left disappointed, even though you shouldn't be expecting much anyways. Lol.
  4. That's really a shame. I used to love watching the making of's. Can't count how many times I've watched them all. I know we have LPTV but it's not the same at all, IMO. I know Fiore films the band constantly, in the studio and not in the studio, so there is definitely more then enough footage to make a half hour making of to include for fans that want to buy it, IMO.
  5. Anybody have a Projekt Revolution 2004 Sampler CD they are willing to sell? EDIT: Also, anybody have a Machine Shop Mixtape 2005 they are willing to sell? I'd like to add both of these to my physical collection.
  6. My thoughts as well. They are usually vague each album cycle about the music, but it seems like this time around they're being way more vague then usual. Maybe it's to build up massive hype?
  7. Wow, thanks for providing this info. Never knew about it.
  8. I recently saw that there was a Mike Shinoda Remix of a song called ''Wednesday Was A Good Day''. I assumed it was fake since I've never heard of it.. But is it? I did some googling and found a lot of sites that had info on it from 2011 and what not, even Worldstarhiphop did.
  9. Wow, a ton of demos in there. There were also a bunch of other demos that came out with the second bundle pack in 2014 as well, I remember there being stuff like ''Coffee'', ''Odyssey'' and more. Would be cool to hear all of these. Has anybody ever ripped all of them?
  10. Admittedly, I don't know much about StageLight. I know that when it launched in 2012, there were a bunch of demos included, like Chicken Basket. I think they were just short idea seed type things, like 10 minute drum loops, etc. They weren't complete demos like Bruiser or Space Station, etc.
  11. Anyone who has StageLight... Apparently, a demo from the MTM Era entitled ''Episodes'' (as seen on the making of MTM as well) was released alongside a bunch of other demos or seeds or whatever you call them. Has anyone ever put this track together? If so, is it possible to be shared here? I'd love to hear what it sounded like.
  12. I stand corrected. November 2015 was so long ago...
  13. The thing is, I think Linkin Park is picking individual artists to produce certain songs for the album. It might end up having a bunch of songs that are produced by different people. Now, that doesn't mean that these guests will be contributing vocals or musical work, but they might just be helping Linkin Park with certain tracks. For example, maybe Jon Green from The Bonfires was helping the band work on a specific song. Maybe Blackbear is helping the band work on a specific song. It's very interesting how they are creating this album, and they haven't given us much information at all really. They've been giving us a lot of pictures and videos from the recording process, but hardly anything about what the actual music sounds like, as Mike joked about on the podcast for the last album update. However, I think this clip is most likely the song that Blackbear is working on with Linkin Park. The vocals and beat sound pretty Linkin Parkish. And even though it's just a small clip, you can actually kind of tell a little bit about the song just from that clip alone. At first, I thought that was Chester singing, with an effect on his voice, but now it sounds like Mike singing, with an effect on his voice. Blackbear's singing sounds very similar to that style as well. It's definitely Linkin Park related, or at least Mike Shinoda related, because that's clearly Linkin Park's studio in that video. Knowing how Linkin Park is, we probably won't hear any further clips from this song or any information about this song again, unless it makes the record, which I'm sure it will.
  14. Do we know for a fact that Blackbear is working with Linkin Park? Martin Garrix said he was working with Linkin Park and it ended up just being a track that featured Mike Shinoda. This is 100% for sure the ''superpop'' sound that Chester was talking about that the band was originally making for THP if it actually is Linkin Park music. If this is an indication of what the album might sound like, I think it's very different sounding for LP, maybe even more so than ATS or MTM ever could have been. I actually like it. EDIT: Broman's post made me 99.9% sure that that's Mike singing in that clip.
  15. Motionless In White - One Step Closer https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YIIpCa2uPRg
  16. I remember this time fondly. Such great memories. I remember the entire fanbase at that point going crazy about Qwerty. I remember Squalljapan's first upload of the song, I think I must have played just that clip alone a bunch of times. I remember when the HQ live track of Qwerty came out at some point in 2006 as well before LPU6 came out, which had a tiny bit longer dialogue at the end of the track than the LPU6 version did. I also remember the fanbase going crazy about Reading My Eyes being played. I still play the LPU6 track of it all the time, I really love how they released that to us on LPU6 because it's special and has Chester doing the vocals, which completely blows away Mark's original vocals, IMO. It was also cool that the band had to look on Linkin Park fansites for an mp3 of Reading My Eyes before the tour so they could remember how the song was. The Fort Minor performances were also awesome as well. Really was a special time for the band as well, redefining the band and everything else. Great post.
  17. I searched for ''Linkin Park Projekt Revolution 2004'' on Google Images and found it.
  18. Pretty sure it was Wantagh. Chester had this hairstyle for one part of the tour and then shaved his head later on halfway through the tour. And this photo proves that Snoop came out before the Colorado show, for sure, judging by that alone. If you watch the video of the Albuquerque 2004 interview, you can see that Chester's hair was shaved at that point as well, which took place a few days before the Colorado show. But I think Chester had on this same outfit at Jones Beach, so that would mean he came out at this show. If you click on the photo, it will be enlarged. EDIT: Just read the show notes for Wantagh. Seems that Snoop came out but his mic wasn't working., which renders this post useless. Haha. EDIT 2: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=c31nIzzurrA In this video, Chester says that they had Jay-Z up on stage with them ''the other night'', he was referring to the Holmdel show. It's then said that they want to get Snoop up on stage with them eventually. And the show between Holmdel and Camden was Hartford, which has no set information at all on the LPL page. So it must have been the Hartford show. Since we know it's not Wantagh because of that photo, as well as the fact that Snoop's mic didn't work.
  19. Well, he is referring to the Meteora Artbook. I don't have scans of it personally but I'm sure someone will.
  20. Another thing to remember is that during the MTV Special of Projekt Revolution 2004, Mike said they had a full recording studio in the back of the bus. They definitely recorded songs during the Meteora Tour in 2003 and 2004. I agree with above posts about how it sounds different than most of the other Meteora demos. This one actually sounds quite like a Minutes to Midnight demo or maybe a demo made in between Meteora and Minutes to Midnight, like said above. Check out the interview below where Mike talks about it. http://www.dailymotion.com/video/x18ph8m_rock-am-ring-2004-mike-shinoda-interview-mtv-germany_music
  21. Well, he probably doesn't like Trump. Judging by his tweet in December. But he might still be a part of the Republican party, he just doesn't support Trump. That's like saying every single Democrat supports Hillary Clinton.
  22. Seems like one of those things like religion. What does someone's political beliefs have to do with their music? Nothing, just like religious beliefs. Just my two cents. For the record, Chester has stated he was a Republican before in an interview from 2007. Maybe he has changed his beliefs. But not every Republican supports Trump. A lot of Republicans will not support trump. Keep that in mind, it's not as one sided as some would believe.
