Uhm, fair point.

https://www.google.it/amp/s/music.mxdwn.com/2021/02/06/reviews/album-review-grey-daze-amends-stripped-ep/amp/ here it says that the only untouched song is “Syndrome”

So great !!

This is getting really professional. I’m basically reading your comments and learning things I’ve never knew. Cool stuff

Yeah I understood the mechanism, if someone is interested in bidding on this and is a crazy collector, well super fine, nothing against it

If you’d buy a copy of every existing version of Amends and Amends stripped you wouldn’t probably spend 500 $. Like, lol. ignore me, I love being a dick around here

I’d pay that much to get an exclusive LPTV video with Chester recording vocals for Friendly Fire and then get the MP3 of the song as an exclusive. It’d be cash grab level 10000 and I know they’ll never do something like that because LP and Warner are classy, but at least it’d be juicy. Anyway, Mike can do whatever he wants with his music, not bashing him, plus, I’ve seen his IG story and, if I understood it correctly, part of the earning of the project is going in charity.

Oh god it’s so great. Sounds like THP mixed with some weird Mike electro shit, soooo dope this time

Great news !

Songs with Mark should stay where they are lol. But to be fair Dialate was nice

Lol I thought his name was Matt

Cruel Daze of Summer, Maestro and Kick the Bass have always been great. Not a HUGE fan of the band but seeing them release stuff from time to time is definitely cool

Mike Shadows maybe ?

It’d be great if those artists would show up

It’s coming out this year

Agree on the reinterpretation, when the instrumentals are totally re-written and it’s not a dancey/electronic record you can’t call it “remix”. The all caps is my fault not due to the hype but a bad habit with titles. Happy they corrected me

In a recent interview about "Amends... Stripped" released on January 29, sitting down with MetalNation.com, Sean Dowdell was asked about a possible follow up to Amends (2020) and responded: “Yeah! We wrote the new album for the past 8 months, we just finished the writing about two weeks ago and now we are setting up to go into the studio in April and knock out the next record.” [...] "There are a few things I would like to try to do for Chester. There are a few people he would have really loved to play with had he been alive, and didn’t get a chance. I am reaching out to a few of those people and maybe they will, maybe they won’t. We will see. There is about five people that we are hoping want to play with us and play with him, we will see what happens.” So basically, as Cristin Davis confirmed back on his social media, the band is far into the writing (re-writing) process of the record and apparently we're not that far from the second remastered record by Chester's pre-Linkin Park band. Stay tuned! Check out the full interview here. UPDATE: on February 21 the band confirmed they finished writing the record after 8 months and they’re hitting the studio to record the new material. UPDATE: during the first week of April the band constantly teased their work on social media, hinting that we might not be that far from getting “new” music...

Totally makes sense to me to get the songs “naked” and wanting to create stripped down versions while they were creating Amends. I’ve never compared it to LP albums, it’s a different situation mainly because these tracks literally scream to get acoustic versions IMO 😊

It could literally be Rebellion or Sorry for Now 😂😂 literally anything is possible 😅😂😂😂 curious to hear it

Really don’t get the dick move but again, ok. Releasing HQ versions of already existing tracks (exactly the same of HT20) is a dick move...ok

It’s absolutely not a “my team vs yours”, I don’t think HT20 was a cash grab at all, but as much as I don’t think that, I personally don’t feel irritated by Grey Daze releasing the stripped songs as a separate thing from Amends, it just felt so natural to me for those 5 songs to have their own stripped versions, even tho they are not 100% new. Also, if rehashing some already released songs was an excuse to give us that amazing YT video with the artist accompaning the songs and a way to get stripped/acoustic versions of those songs on Spotify, that’s a really good excuse. Personally I wish they released the EP on CD too, but that’s just me 100% loving the project 😀

Those tracks were Japanese bonus editions exclusives, Shouting Out has a totally different vocal take, and the album comes out as a super limited vynil and for free on streaming platforms... Don’t get the cash grab. It’s not that different from releasing HT20 Boxset with 90% of the content included being already out there for decades. Just my opinion

Soul Song is slightly different for sure IMO. Anyway, now we have these acoustic versions on Spotify all in one place without randomly searching for them on YT uploaded by Japanese fans 🙂

Yeah same here, just a HQ upgrade

It’s really similar, to me sounds the same vocal take but I might be wrong. So far the only 100% “”new”” vocal take is the one on Shouting Out
