Definitely. This song is clearly the 6SS. And I also agree with you on the point that LP will call anything that hasn't been released yet "brand new," even if it was recorded years ago. I actually sort of agree with them on that, because it's "new" to us as fans. What I did not understand is why Mike, when specifically asked if it was recorded during the MtM sessions, did not say that it was when it clearly was. It's not like it's a big deal, doesn't ruin the song or anything, I just wonder what made him say that.

It definitely is. Same melody and beat and cello.

That would be extremely nit-picky of Mike. He didn't say Not Alone was brand new, he was very forthright about the fact that it was a MtM demo that they completed later on. Why would he not do that now?

That's really weird. Mike was specifically asked if the song was recorded during the MtM sessions or if it was all new, and he said all new. But we already know it was for sure recorded during the MtM sessions. o.O It's a "brand new" song, but the question was if the song was recording during MtM and the answer to that should have been yes.

its the last one.

Awesome stuff. Clips of specific songs and some explanations of how they came together and some playing from Ryan and Amir.

I'm know. When I say LP is pushing I assume LP, Warner, and all others who back their promotion.

It seems like Linkin Park has been making a push to be more directly available to the fans as of late. Like, instead of doing it through the fanclub, they seem to be going directly to the fans as Linkin Park and not the LPU. I think this is a good move as fanclubs are probably losing steam as more and more social networks become popular.

Nice to hear Mike finally making some comments on Warner. EDIT: Mike also says the current Linkinpark.com is an interim site. Also some really interesting stuff around the 30:00 mark. Mike says the music is truly a lot different from Hybrid Theory and Minutes To Midnight, and that they could even let some fans hear new music before it comes out to gauge if we like it. Wow, wonder if he is actually considering that or is just stating that they could do it.

So it's a Meteora b-side. SWEET. lulz.

No, they started being rude after he left. But still.

I asked Phoenix to show us some dance moves, and sent him on his passionate Bejeweled rant. Good day. And fuck the people who were being rude to Rob. Seriously what is wrong with you assholes?

Holy crap.

You don't think LP is going to promote their iPhone app? I'd say by the time the game is out/after it's been out a little while it will have received at least almost as much promotion as Download To Donate and Not Alone. And you call Across The Line and Blackbirds rejects; what does that make Not Alone? For the record I don't think any of these songs will be played live, but I'd say Blackbirds has just as much a chance as Not Alone.

It's not that I think they could/would make it better, but LP's sound has changed a lot since HT was first released. At least for MTM, the band has a more raw sound. Plus they could add in any live intro/outros they do. You are right about Reanimation though. Didn't think of it like that.

If there are anymore HT b-sides, then that would be what LPU10 should be. Other than that, and I know LP has said that they would rather make new music than re-record old stuff, but for the HT 10th anniversary it would be cool if they re-recorded Hybrid Theory. There could be new spins on each track, maybe switch some stuff up, I dunno.

Just wanted to let you guys know Mike recorded a short video saying that all video chats from now on will be on Linkin Park's official Ustream. http://www.ustream.tv/channel/linkin-park

April Fool's to you too. Though I don't really get what the joke was anyway.

Out of Across The Line, Not Alone, and Blackbirds, I think Blackbirds has the highest chance of being played live, because it's being officially released through Apple. I'm not predicting if it will or won't be played though. I guess Not Alone was officially released through them too but that was just a different situation.

Seems good to me, only thing I disagree with are Mike's remixes. I really doubt those were ever intended to be played live. LOATR for instance would just be Chester singing the same line over and over again. Just not something LP is gonna do.

We already have a whole album of that. It was called Out Of Ashes

Just curious, but does anyone know if Julien-K is signed to a label? And if so, which one?

It's gonna be hard to make an album that is better than Death To Analog. That album is just really really good.

There are actually. There is one palm-muted guitar playing in the verse.

I dunno, I feel like that would be such typical LP. LP shouldn't always be so formulaic with the way they structure their songs. I don't think the song sounds like screaming would sound right in it too.
