Not a question, but i didn't knew where to put it. Just found the original HybridTheory website when they announced for the first time the name changing to Linkin Park. https://web.archive.org/web/20001204182800/http://www.hybridtheory.com/ That's a really cool thing to have saved on a drive. Keeping the .html file and so.

Awful video. I couldn't go through more than 30 seconds. So much cringe. There are many more fans out there that could pull off an awesome video. This is the opposite of making Chester proud. This is amateur work. I mean no disrespect directly to the fan that made it. But it's not at the level of Chester's brand.

I meant that... if he can't listen to Chester's voice... how is he working with HT20?

Fuck that was heavy. But i got what Mike is saying, and that's somehow a relief for his conscience. Chester orbited suicide a couple of times... those other times he was saved somehow. If someone saved him on the july 20th, we wouldn't know about it for years... probably until he tried it again and succeed. Depression is almost unstoppable. So, really, Chester's death wasn't anyones fault and no one could really prevent that...

How the fuck is Mike mixing the HT20? Or just listening to those new mixes?

Damn, that's so raw. This is how you can really tell apart an amazing singer. This voice touches you deeply.

didn't BTH take something like 5 years to get done? I remember an interview with Mike saying it was one of the hardest songs to finish.

i was thinking about it... Open Door is about having some opportunities in life. And Mike opened doors for those fans singing in the song.

I really want to know more about this game that turned into ATS. One of the worst decisions in LP's career was related to a game (the project spark with GATS video). And now we learn one of the best decisions is also game related (not doing the game and turning it into ATS)

too much hype on that russian girl. I hope the other winners sound better.

I couldn't stand original GD... i'd listen to 1 or 2 songs at the most. The production was awful... the recording sounded dirt and too much distorted. The instrumental was annoying (the drums mostly)... it was like every member wasn't playing for the song... they were just showing off. I'm not any kind of expert in music technicalities, so i enjoyed a lot most of the new songs. They sound clean, they sound modern, they sound refreshing. A little bit generic, yeah... but they gave me the same feelings as if i was hearing new unreleased Chester material. What i get is it may be worst for old GD fans, because the songs were modified a lot.... its like LP doing de HT remaster and changing the songs to a more "one more light" style.

Think about of your best friend, okay? Now, you guys have your things that happen together. Nice, you comment about those things with other people. This friend of yours also has things that happened in his life before he met you. Or things happening in his life that do not involves you. And those things you just don't comment about with other people... because they are not related with you. Simple.

Yeah, Get Me Gone lyrics can give a little insight on all of that. When i was young the press made me see LP as a bunch of "Chads"... spoiled kids with rich parents that had no real talent, just money (Chester excluded). I felt a little bit ashamed of "idolizing" their music. Now i see Mike saying they were middle class at the most and everything else we learn about the band's past... it's clear that at the time the press was just being stupid as always.

When i was a kid... 12y/o or so... i started to like LP a lot and i heard a few things that the guys were kind rude with the press. Rumours and such. It was around 2003/04 i think. At the time it got me a little boomed to be a fan of a band with bad guy.... Was this true? The guys were rude/assholes to the press in the early days? Because all i see from them is they being genuenily nice.

The song instrumentals are a little bit generic... but it was awesome to hear Chaz on a very metal tune.

I guess the 5 guys will try to make a new Linkin Park record, a whole new cycle of touring and whatnot, to prove them strong by themselves... And then just after that they may release some Chester stuff. It's a smart move to not rise LP again on Chester's back... but bring LP back as they are right now.

Damn, asking about Holly Brook demanded some balls. There was some problems between her and machine shop, right?

Thanks! I don't know why, but sometimes i picture Chester with a hillbilly accent. Like if he was from a small city guy going into the big city (LA).

Felt like just showing off. Screaming doesn't fit with Open Door at all.

Amazing! Thanks Another one: Do LP's vocals have an ACCENT? Like... the regional speaking accent. i mean, i'm not an english native speaker... so i can't tell if Mike and Chester have accents. Not just singing, but when speaking. I guess Chester being from Arizona and Mike from Californa... something must be different in their way of talking, singing and pronouncing words.

Thanks! Question about LP now... Did they ever tell what the ATS cover means? I remember some discussions at the time when it was released (the mushroom cloud, or a dove).... i remember Mike saying something like "i know what it means, it's supposed to mean this thing... but i won't tell... it's open to interpretation."

DBS related... Do we know for sure if there are other DBS unreleased demos/songs?

Are we not talking about the print from Mike's screen in one of those lives? There was a folder called "master revision" or something like that. And some HT and Xero songs there... including even 3 new ones (one of them labeled PB_2020edit... possibly pictureboard)

About footages... I'm pretty sure the 2012 Brazilian concert in Porto Alegre had a proshot. I was there and i saw big profesional cameras around. I never got to know who was filming it, so i could try to contact them. But this footage is out there somewhere, probably in a hard drive of a broadcast company.

I always thought NoBrain remixed The Catalyst. Never knew he did anything on WTCFM
