Honestly even with A Thousand Suns already being my favorite Linkin Park album it makes me a little sad knowing that Trent or Atticus could have been involved. NIN's my favorite band so that would have been pretty cool.

Prime Chester doing the RME breakdown? Sign me the fuck up!

If we end up getting studio version of Reading My Eyes with Chester and Stick and Move that'd be fucking dope.

Would love to hear this if it ever is released. Blink-182 is another one of my favorite bands.

I don't see why everybody hates the new B12 so much. I think it sounds dope and is one of my favorites on Amends. I prefer the original version but can still get down to this one as well with its completely different vibe.

I don't think anybody here would be able to share it since it's officially-released music.

Misogynistic songs have been on the radio for generations at this point.

So I listened to the album and it's not bad. Pretty cool to hear these songs in a new style but I'm still not going to buy it because I'm not supporting Sean and company after they handled everything.

You fucking serious right now? They showed very, very little respect for Chester and everything seemed like a way for them to make money.

This one kinda drags on forever without really going anywhere. Some cool ideas in there still and I'm sure if Mike were to actually work on the song more he'd trim a lot of the fat and make something really cool.

Didn't really get a Hybrid Theory vibe from it at all to be honest but I'm loving that Mike is doing these live streams and interacting with the community like this.

I'm kinda digging it. I really like Mike's delivery and the hook is catchy. Not a great song but not a bad one either.

Dude can be used to describe a male or female person.

I think they just added a second guitar to OSC so Mike would have something to do. Also IIRC some of the outros they've played have had Brad playing a lead guitar part. Though I could be thinking of another song with that one.

Dude is gender-neutral my dude.

I really hate how defensive everybody gets here if somebody doesn't like a song/project/whatever that a member of the band is putting out. It really stifles any sort of open discussion. And news flash: saying "this song is awesome!" adds just as much to the conversation as "this song is shit!" does yet nobody ever complains about the former. I've liked the other two collaborations the band has done with Aoki so I'm optimistic that I'll like this one too but people are allowed to dislike a damn song.

Yeah Post Traumatic has some pop vibes to it but it's pretty much a modern hip-hop record but with more singing. Even most of the songs that Mike doesn't really rap on have a hip-hop vibe to the beat.

I'll reserve judgement until I can actually hear it. lol

I guess I was just trying to say that none of the pre-Hybrid Theory (album) songs really fit the style of Hybrid Theory. The closest would be the remixed version of High Voltage (since it was actually intended for the album at some point) but I feel like even that would feel very out of place on that album.

I really can't see She Couldn't or any of the HTEP songs fitting on Hybrid Theory.

That clip is dope. It's got that same "Nine Inch Nails meets trap music" vibe that Fine had.

I think he might also be remembered for briefly fronting another mega-popular band with STP but I agree that the first thing anybody is ever going to think with Chester is Linkin Park.

Head did apologize about his comments.

But it's not like anything here is actually new and all of Chester's contributions can be heard already through the original versions of the songs. I'm still curious about hearing that stuff in a new context but Chester didn't actually contribute anything new to this project.

Yep. It's absolutely not "lost" music. It's remixes of songs that were released and have been available for over two decades at this point.
