MMM

I love Cut the bridge live. This song has new life on the stage.

Band need to retire GoodThingsGo. This is ugliest thing live, the worst song they could have chosen for a livestream. XD. Emily is not able to pull this song. Stained or OEO is 100 times better live. They should make changes to the setlist. New Divide sound flat, Lost should be only acoustic because it sound flat in full band version. Throat tearers like GivenUp should also be limited, because you can see, or rather hear, that Emily is a little tired of this tour. Or rather, her vocal cords. If a band wants to play for years, they should think about their health.

100% agreed. If you want to play in the current line-up for many years, stop doing it. It is not necessary. Setlist is heavy enough. It's better to play Keys To The Kingdom or Casualty or Lost in the Echo in that spot which are heavy but don't require as much stretch in the throat for a long time as GU.

I won't predict what the band will do. Because as usual, they will surprise us all, but I will write what I would like this album to contain. - Definitely more interesting riffs. On FZ we have Two Faced, Casualty, IGYEIH in its entirety and the bridge in HITC. The rest are powerchords and octaves. Brad is sitting at home, let him show off a bit and give a skill challenge for the next tour for Alex. - More Rap elements. A rich samples. HITC sampling is one of the best thing for me on FZ. A return to Mike's classic rapping with a more interesting flow and less schematic structures. I'm not as much of a fan of mike singing as most of you. I prefer it when he raps even though his flow is worse than it used to be. - longer tracks... -...with more unusual structures like they do with LYF - guitar solos - instrumental track or tracks - 12-15 tracks

A shot on target.

Variation of the melody that Emily doing in Stained last chorus is fcken great in the last shows.

Brad was there too, but Colin played guitar. It seems to me that he has some strong anxiety disorders and that's why he doesn't perform live

I thought so too. There were a few interviews where the topic of Chester was discussed, but during the concert I don't remember it In Minneapolis, they only said that they had also recently experienced a tragedy. But other than that I don't remember

Finally, the band has a bit of a break. The second amercian leg is the most packed. Emily still sounds great and there are no signs of voice fatigue. I was worried at start of the tour, but now I know that she can manage voice perfectly. The future looks bright.

Phoenix had a great setlist. Best rotations IMO.

LP in their songs touches the problem of mental illness and they are a symbol for people with mental illnesses, so it's no wonder that it has one of the most difficult fanbases. XD

At the very beginning I was fascinated by this track because Em gives the coolest vocals here imo. But the song is generally incoherent. The drums sound strange. In some places like a placeholder. Even in the chorus, which in my opinion is the most polished fragment. Verses are super super weird. Using the same riff in the intro, verses and bridge is also not a very interesting. Whole thing sounds unfinished. I think they released the song on the Deluxe Edition because it was a song that opened the eyes of the band members to Emily's potential joining the band. They emphasized this in an interview and wanted to share this story with fans by sharing this song. After all, Mike won't say in an interview that he chose a weak or unfinished song to release it on an album with only 3 new songs

1. Band doesn't like Unshatter as a final product since it's the only real b-side from FZ (UFTB and LYF were finished after 15 nov). They only released it because it has super powerful vocals from Emily. 2. In my opinion, Unshatter is the most difficult and physically exhausting song to sing live of all From Zero. 3. It seems to me that in the fan community this is the least liked song. Some love it, but many put it at the bottom of their rankings. Unnecessary risk to play it live. Maybe they rehearsed it and it doesn't click. I'm expecting old deepcuts more than this song.

Such a big brand as LP and they have one Mark for filming and editing. If I set up a company one day, I would like to hire as many specialists as possible to maximize the potential. Anyway Mark doing fantasting job.

Who blocks official livestreams from festivals? Warner, management or the band on its own? Surely someone from this environment. It seems to me that they want all the live material they release to be polished and mixed as best as possible.

May2023 This is probably the earliest footage with Emily that we have seen so far. She looks and behave slighty differently. More like Dead Sara Emily XD

Black hair guy vibing to Mike singing. I think it's Cal Shapiro. He is credited as the co-songwriter.

I think that FIFA representatives, mainly their marketing department, have watched this event and will make the appropriate decision on who should create a song for the World Cup 2026 ;)

What?!?! Huge surprise. I think this little european tour will be a break from a studio work. I don't expect big touring in 2026 since 2025 is huge enough for a comeback. Dave said that they want to go into the studio much more frequently because they are not young anymore... or revenue from the concerts is so big that they will turn into next SOAD for the rest of their career XD

Great footage as always. I don't know if it's just me, but everyone looks much more relaxed now. At first backstage clips from 2024 tour everyone looks stiff. Huge progress in confidence. Specially Em. So next week probably second half of US tour footage. After UCL finals we could have something about that too or they will combine it with European Tour first shows. From europe, world tour will be much more packed than before. I wonder if we'll see next studio BTS anytime soon. Or Maybe they will release bts and tour backstages alternately. Little dissapointed today because I was so curious about TwoFaced origin. Maybe the most ; )

What if every songs with external songwriters are OML demos, expect Overflow because of Teddy Swims involved. It would turn out that TEM, Two Faced, Casualty and UFTB are the only original FZ demos. XD We don't know how many demos they made from 2015 to 2017. It was long writing process. It could be that they choose only ones with same stylistic for OML and saved the rest for future releases.

...Everything is exploding, twenty hours, no sleep Three o’ clock in the morning, lying there in the street... 20.3 Chester birthday 😁

After week of listening (including leak XD) I think that LetYouFade is my favourite FZ song beside Overflow. Interestingly, both of them are the most experimental. Considering that FZ is a comeback album and mainly uses the safest route, I see a bright future with more crazy songs like this two.

Hehe I was going to start a similar topic. I'm glad that someone else noticed that Unshatter is going great into Already over. I think AO Crimson Intro go really well into TEM. It only need to cut 1-2 seconds of silence from ending Mine variation 1. Already Over (crimson intro) 2. Emptiness Machine 3. Cut The Bridge 4. Heavy is The Crown 5. Over Each Other 6. Casualty 7. Overflow 8. Two Faced 9. Up From The Bottom 10. Unshatter 11. Already Over 12. Let You Fade 13. Stained 14. IGYEIH 15. Good Things Go

Vocal melody through every part of the song is very repetitive. Most simple in a whole FZ (Not counting "Casualty". Which has practically no melody at all XD) but instrumental, lyrics and unconventional song structure is big plus. Best Mike vocals too. Definitely not generic.
