This is great news. I am excited to see what the next chapter of Linkin Park brings.

I think excluding One Step Closer is a big mistake. It was the first single the band released from Hybrid Theory, it's been played at nearly every Linkin Park show and with One More Light Live (presumably) being the last main release with Chester it would have been a great inclusion to kind of bookend the Chester Bennington era.

Fucking awesome tune. That breakdown was sick as hell.

I think having the band helps separate these performances from his solo Fort Minor shows from a few years back.

Mike released the video for Can't Hear You Now today. Discuss!

Always down for new music from Mike. Looking forward to whatever comes of this!

Hoping this gets a release soon. I don't want everything kept in a vault forever and would love to hear some new stuff with Chester on it.

I'm guessing Warner or somebody in the LP/Chester camp decided not to allow Chester's vocals.

Thanks

Where can I hear this?

I initially read that as Post Traumatic 2 and got really excited for a second. lol

It has nothing to do with the original. On it's own merits I do not like the cover. I guess "awful" was too strong a word choice. I just don't like it.

Not to get off topic with the whole Pros and Cons of Geki debate but this cover is awful. Everything from the instrumentation to the vocal performance just does not work at all in my opinion. I appreciate showing some love for Linkin Park but I won't be listening to this again.

They'll almost certainly play Lift Off at this show. Does Deftones still play My Own Summer live? It would be pretty cool to see Mike come out for that since LP used to play it at shows back in the day.

Unfortunately I'm going to be working on Friday. I still find myself breaking down on occasion and I already know it's going to be a difficult day. Friday morning I'm releasing a remix EP to help honor his legacy. The description on the uploads includes a link to the One More Light fund and the EP itself includes a remix I was working on the morning of Chester's death before I heard the news. I felt it was fitting to finally release it as a part of this project. When I get home I'll probably watch Rock Am Ring 2004. It's been my favorite LP show for years and I always enjoy watching Chester kick ass on stage. I was thinking of also watching the tribute show from last October but I don't know how I'll be feeling at the end of the day.

That's nothing! The Scars on Broadway album coming out next week was recorded six years ago.

Another great video! I can't wait to watch the whole album once everything's released.

Those are my favorite tracks on the album. lol

I wonder if there's any chance Jared performs something with Mike.

As a huge Nine Inch Nails fan it's really cool to see Mike on the same bill as them.

I think the availability of the show helps but it is definitely one badass show.

To add to your point. There are probably millions of more casual fans that have no idea what the name of any of the band members are. For example, I like the band New Politics but I don't know a single member's name. Just because somebody is a Linkin Park fan doesn't mean they'll hear the name Mike Shinoda and make the connection. Hell my brother had no idea that the guy from Fort Minor and Linkin Park are the same guy despite having songs by both on his playlists for years.

I told myself I was gonna save RFMS for the album but I caved as soon as it dropped. lol

If there's one thing Mike/LP knows how to do it's close an album.

I'm honestly tempted to add these songs from the OML sessions to OML and rearrange the tracklist. I already think Place To Start works as an intro. lol
