Doing an official release of that show would feel gross. Nobody should profit off of what was essentially Chester's (public) funeral. Having it available on YouTube like they do is plenty.

Were the tributes in the Hollywood Bowl show, Post Traumatic (and its tour), HT20, M20, and Papercuts not enough? They can't just be doing Chester tributes the whole rest of their career.

That's pretty cool that they're giving us some live tracks. I might grab this.

You know what, I always thought I didn't need any more Nu-Metal Linkin Park songs, but I love all of them on this album. Too Faced is great and it's been stuck in my head all week.

Weird statement to make considering the AI art that was all over the Meteora 20 rollout.

Hoping for Target Center or Xcel in Minnesota.

My top three right now: The Emptiness Machine, Casualty, Overflow

Asking where to find a leak is functionally no different from asking for the direct link. We can't be sharing stuff like that on forum posts if we want the website to keep running. I've been here for a long time and I'd be devastated if it's shut down.

Not supposed to ask for links to official material

I've only listened once (on Saturday) but I really enjoyed the album. I can't wait to get my hands on the leak (or the CD which I pre-ordered at the event if I can't find the leak lol) and blast Casualty in the car.

The screaming on the album version at that point isn't quite as intense as live from what I remember but it's still pretty fucking intense.

Casualty sounds so good. It's probably my favorite of the yet-to-be-released songs on the album.

Just got back from the listening party and I loved the album. Overall, I got some Minutes to Midnight vibes with the way the album flows. There's a lot of heavier song, then softer song, then heavier song throughout similar to that album. There are a lot of different sounds packed into the half hour that comprises the album. It definitely feels as short as it is, and I wish it were just a little bit longer. A couple of transitional tracks like A Thousand Suns or even just one more "full song" would have gone a long way. Anyway, here's the notes I took during the listening party. Cut the Bridge - staccato guitar riff, bouncy - Mike's rapping reminds me of All for Nothing - dreamy little prechorus - chorus has a fun back and forth dynamic with Emily and Mike - very catchy, was mouthing along to the words by the second chorus - blackbear-esque bridge from Mike - This song feels like it would be at home on Minutes to Midnight, but at the same time doesn't actually sound like any song that's actually on Minutes to Midnight. Casualty - heavy as shit, like Victimized meets Keys to the Kingdom - Emily's screaming is awesome - Mike kinda yells his verse, reminded me of something between Year Zero era Trent Reznor and Rage Against the Machine - raw sounding verses - bridge reminds me of Figure.09, Mike raps and Emily screams with him, scratching - "It's only a matter of time" - This might just be the heaviest song Linkin Park has ever released. Wow! Overflow - intro has synth stabs, crushed drums, and an echoey, chopped vocal - very unique sound in the LP catalog, kind of like Fine mixed with Lift Off but very much its own thing - Emily has dreamy, soft vocals that get harsher as the song progresses - "white sky to a black hole/sunlight to a shadow" - This song feels like if Fine was a Linkin Park song in the same way that Heavy is the Crown kind of feels like Already Over if that makes sense. Two-Faced - was that Stick N Move in the intro? - more metal riffing (hell yeah!) - "counting to zero" - Mike's raps have a Hybrid Theory album vibe to them (got By Myself and Hit the Floor vibes from the song) - Emily with a big chorus and frantic outro vocals - breakdown feels like old school Linkin Park with scratching - This song feels the most like an early Linkin Park song since Meteora - even more-so than Heavy is the Crown. Stained - Mike's vocals remind me of PT (no song in particular, but that vibe) - heavy hip-hop type beat - poppy chorus vocal melody, reminds me of something Rihanna would do - "You try to hide the mark but it won't fade" - This song feels very different from the rest of the album. It's easily the poppiest song and, with some production differences, wouldn't sound out of place on One More Light. - The ending of this song cut off at our listening party due to some technical issue and the person running it went to the next track. IGYEIH - "I give you everything I have" - Emily screams the intro - more heavy guitars and scratching - mixture of Emily singing and Mike/Emily rap/sung back and forth ala Lost - "Forgotten doesn't mean that it's forgiven this time" - very aggressive chorus vocals - more old school breakdowns, similar vibe to Given Up instrumentally - "FROM NOW ON I DON'T NEED YOU" - ends like Nirvana's Smells Like Teen Spirit with Emily yelling over and over Good Things Go - verses are Mike and Emily singing to start and then Mike raps - clean, ballady guitar - closest thing in the LP catalog would be maybe Primo - more dreamy vocals that get aggressive later - "sometimes bad things take the place where good things go" - big, explosive end to the song (and album) - Mike's bridge reminds me of A Line In the Sand - This song joins Linkin Park's list of closing songs that don't really feel like closing songs along with Pushing Me Away, Numb, Powerless, and Sharp Edges.

I'm so happy to see All for Nothing finally get its debut. The list of The Hunting Party songs not played live continues to shrink! When can we expect Mark the Graves? Edit: Somebody needs to update the page! The Hunting Party - Linkinpedia

Halfway through the show and there's two live debuts: All For Nothing and Casualty I've been waiting for AFN for a while now. Yay!

There's a lot going on with screens and lighting that, unless they rehearse a ton of songs and design the stage effects that go along with it, it's difficult to change up the setlist much.

I don't know about other locations, but the one I'm going to is giving out lanyards, stickers, and t-shirts (by drawing) so there's still a reason to go.

Over Each Other sounds incredible.

I'm going to a listening party about 40 minutes from my house on Saturday. Can't wait to hear new Linkin Park!!!

Name calling now? How mature... You're back-tracking doesn't change shit. If you seriously meant it as an inoffensive suggestion, you wouldn't have put the winking emoji at the end of it. That stage setup is cool as hell.

How do you tell if it's LPU-only? The only ones near me just say contact the location for information.

I'm predicting something like Eminem's Music to be Murdered By Side B or blink-182's One More Time Part 2. It'll be a re-release of the album with basically an album's worth of bonus tracks.

Another quick comment: I'm so glad that the band didn't feel the need to put Mike's vocals in every song to ground it in familiarity. They let Emily shine on this track and I love it.

How is anybody saying this sounds like One More Light? It's more similar to something like Leave Out All the Rest or Final Masquerade than anything from OML. This is a classic Linkin Park ballad through and through.

Let's get even more granular! TEM 976/1000 HITC 789/1000 Haven't listened to OEO yet.
