Xero21

I think since #2 hasn't happened by now, or if it doesn't happen very shortly (like in the next hour or two), the band will just confirm it.

15 songs. 15. Holy. Shiz. Too much excitement.

I guess Iridescent is the demo name? And yay for new ATS LPTV's.

Apparently if you do you'll get song previews for each song "weeks before release date." And there's always the chance the downloads come a day or two early.

Why did it take LP ten years to unleash this much awesome at our faces?

Jesus H. I will have to do this.

I found the meaning behind the cover. A Thousand Suns Mr. Game & Watch Coincidence? I think not.

You voted for a song that's already been eliminated. Whaaaaat. And my vote goes to Forward/Don't Stay.

It says it will feature music. I'm asking if showing full music videos during the X Games are a normal occurrence.

As a person who loves MTM, loves even more how this new album is shaping up to sound, and does not like this album cover, I can tell you that it being different from past LP has nothing to do with it. At least for me. It's just ultra plain. It's a boring cover. But as I posted earlier, who the hell cares about the album cover. And I do agree that an album cover you dislike shouldn't change your opinion on the band.

Uh...duh? OF COURSE nothing the band does is going to please everyone. We aren't a bunch of robots programmed the same way, we all have different tastes. You act like that's a bad thing. LP knows not everything they do will please everyone. If as an artist you aim to please everybody, you're going to fail.

Ah, the sweet smell of contemporary art. Create something very plain and let the fans fill in the blanks about how awesome it is and how much meaning it must have behind it. I loved seeing Blue Man Group live when they made fun of this kind of stuff. I could really care less though. I'm not going to spend hours and hours staring at the front of the CD case. My time will be spent listening to the music, so it could be a picture of Mike Shinoda in a thong for all I care.

I don't watch the X Games often but don't they play music videos sometimes? So I'm assuming they'll show the music video?

Mark as in Hahninator Mark.

Damn it get Somewhere I Belong out!

I mean, it's highly possible anything leaks these days. I'd have to assume The Catalyst will too.

The drums playing are the "Outro Drums" though. Who knows. My question is, how are we going to know when this song leaks with all the fan remixes floating around?

It is interesting to hear him singing a bit of lead on a single.

According to the reviews of 6 track sampler, there might not even be a chorus. Which is cool for me cause most of my favorite songs don't have choruses.

I like it but I don't think it's as orgasmic as other people.

Definitely The Catalyst. It has the same drums.

Well the song definitely changes a lot. We go from this to "GOD BLESS US EVERYONE!"

You have to let it load.

You have to wait for it to load.
