  1. The drumming is sick. Never heard anyone using double bass like this before, it's awesome. Also, I like the fact that the tone of the doulbe bass is un-usual, very discant. Love it. Just a real shame that the song is a rip off of Little Sister by Queens of The Stone Age, but whatever, good song!
  2. It's a metaphore for loosing someone and moving on, it makes sense. I don't think Chester ever mixes random words together. I just think his lyrics are quite simple, which I like, in some cases. Mike Shinoda is more complex. And he is the only one of the two who could ever end up mixing random words together, in my opinion. Bleed it Out.
  3. Funny, I think Leave Out All The Rest is one of their most cliché lyrics, I really think they destroy the song. But the other two are quite good, yes. I think Papercut (MS), In Between (MS) and Part of Me (MS) are some of the best just to mention a few. But this just proves the fact that lyrics are very subjective to every person, and you can never really judge who's the better writer.
  4. Haha! Apperantly their ear-monitors were still working. Can't believe nobody told the band faster.
  5. Can anyone tell me how Joe got the spirit back for the 2009 shows? So much energy man, I'm loving it...
  6. Yeah, I'm pretty sure it was tuned in standard half step down instead of the drop D tuning the song needed. Haha. Quick switch indeed. And there's plenty of bass if you ask me. Not that the mix is perfect at all. I think the drums could've been louder, and we need to see Rob more.
  7. His guitar wasn't tuned right. He changed it after the octave part in the beginning.
  8. I think it's really awesome actually. I love Chester's performance here, the solo could have been better, but I like the overall style. The lyrics are awesome too.
  9. Can't wait for the set-list. Btw, anyone noticed how Dead By Sunrise ripped off Queens of The Stone Age's Little Sister with their song My Suffering? Especially with the new verses. Even though the chorus dosn't sound like Little Sister, it has the same tempo shift and the music is very similar throughout the song.
  10. Might have been a bad day, I think there was a very good connection with the fans to the shows I've been too.
  11. @MrPool, It's not fair to compare the old shows to recordings from Rock In Rio, the audio mixing of those videos totally kills them, they suck ass. I hate that show. Now compare it to the videos I posted instead. I agree, they had more energy back then, but who can blame them? You see what happened to Chester from jumping down from risers for 10 years, and we don't want that do we? They ARE getting older, and that's just the way it is. Musically, I think they are a lot tighter now and the sound have improved at their shows. Saying the new shows suck is retarded. I even met LP haters, who admitted they kicked ass at festival shows last year. And are you basing your point on recordings? Did you go to any of the 2007-08 shows? Cause it's a lot different to just watch it on YouTube than to actually being there. If you go to a show, try to compare the overall energy, not only from the band but the whole thing, to other bands shows.
  12. I have to agree with Lord_Arthas, Faint Rock Am Ring 2007 rocks. This is the best performance of Chester I've seen. He mixes rock 'n' roll vocals with metal vocals in the ending, I've never heard anything like it, it's sick: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qe7okyqG6zs Also, I love One Step Closer from the same concert, people go nuts. The band does an exelent performance. I love the bridge, with all the hands and Brads expression:
  13. I think Fire will have a screaming chorus, or at least agressive vocals. It sounds like it, from the guitar.
  14. Some other rapper is on there too. It's both Mike and someone else.
  15. O2 Arena is going down. Edit: Or rather the company who arranged the 50 shows there.
  16. Haha funny! Chester voice sounds absolutely perfect now. Good camera work though.
  17. I'm sure he'll improve too, no question. But it's just that the songs he couldn't nail in the first place, never turned out too good, it got better but never perfect.
  18. The performance of New Divide was better than I had expected, instrument-wise. I think they got very close to the album version, keeping in mind they used a lot of samples, but in terms of guitar sound and the sound of Mike's synth, they were spot on. I feared it would lack power because there is no rythm guitar on the song, but it certainly didn't. Chester was off most of the time and pretty much ruined the song for me. Not surprising. Only good thing is that he didn't have much trouble hitting the high note at "distance in your eyes", which I had expected he would. When I think about it, he usually sings better when he is allowed to force his throat to the top, so it's not that strange. Still, overall, his singing sucked. But he rocked on Bleed it Out, really awesome performance. He did well on Numb and Faint too.
  19. I think you are overreacting when you're saying this is bad news. Wait and see. Mike has learned that shouldn't get our hopes too high, that's why he's saying it liket that. And I don't think lie is a very appropriate word for what they've been saying in interviews over the last decade. Believe me, I've been following them all the way too, and I have gotten dissapointed myself. But they've always told what they believed was the truth (release dates and delays for instance), so they've never been lying. And Astat, I think he is just pointing out their mistake, because you've been saying (which is true) that there is only one guitar in the mix and not a orchestration.
  20. In The End had pretty cool CGI in my opinion. It dosn't even look outdated today, considering it was released in 2002, and it fits the song well.
  21. Just because they will be playing with Chester on concert? Are you kidding me? Dead By Sunrise is a band, not Chester Bennington with random musicians. He wrote the "songs" - the melodies, but I'm sure the Julien K guys are not just in the background when it comes to how the songs actually ended up. They've had a huge impact.
  22. It makes Rob and Chester look cool at least. I don't know why Brad has to look so stoned when he's performing nowadays. I was expecting more, I would have loved to see the flying bandmembers in the breakdown, but oh well. And people talking about a second non-movie cut, is this confirmed?
  23. Haha, you just reminded me that I have it on VHS, that's rare stuff!
