While it’s a surprise to have gone with an extended reveal, ultimately the news will come out, whether it’s a leak or on 5/9. I’m not losing sleep over it.

Would make a wild story if it pulled off though!

Why would a new singer have to be someone known? An complete unknown could make their mark without the preconceptions from people of I do/don’t like them/ their music

I could see a nice tribute being… Lights fade to black. A spotlight shines down on a mic stand centre stage. Band play through to chorus of Numb in darkness, with crowd choir. Lights up and vocalist joins from second verse. Crowd sings bridge. Full band close.

Whatever direction they take, so long as they’re happy, that’s all that matters. Continue as a five-piece, good for them. New direction and new takes on legacy music with a female vocalist, good for them. Bringing in a male vocalist, no doubt it’s big shoes to fill, but good for them. Hit a few festivals as a farewell tour, good for them too. Whatever the next chapter is, if it makes them happy, I’m there for it.

Cautiously optimistic. Going to be a long 4 days!

Totally different genre but look at Take That in the UK. They went from a 5 piece, to 4, then back to 5, then 4, now 3. Still go by Take That.

Will be interesting to see if he uploads other concepts to his website at a later date. this artwork is better than the album cover imo

Of course there’s a page there, should have checked first! Thank you ☺️

Notice you’ve listed ‘Patreon exclusive’ next to a few… rather than starting a new thread, how many/ what studio songs have they released through the platform? I’ve not been in a position to afford a subscription but curious as to what there is! Cheers

I've always backed their campaigns with a CD purchase ... but £20/$25 shipping to the UK is extortionate. It more than double the cost of the CD. Sorry guys, love ya but that's a little too expensive for my pocket this time.

Given past form, MTM will have a LPU rarities or Live disc that it will appear on

Hard to hear the guitar under the pitched vocal. Honestly didn’t know it was there until now. Nice edit!

Only way the plethora of vinyl versions from publishers will stop is if people vote with their wallets, or lack there of in this case.

Let’s mock that up… https://ibb.co/HHP7nw8 👀

Things are moving fast with this one, though looking at a couple days ago about the speculation over what 14 could be… seems obvious now that it was omitted from the marketing because QWERTY simply isn’t on Spotify and YouTube to have included in the track run down. Well played to their marketing team keeping quiet and letting the fan base hype itself up.

The artwork makes a lot more sense in the context of the animated version @vikwinchester shared in the other thread.

Should call the album “What We’ve Done”, or something creative. “Greatest Hits”, “The Best of”, “The Hits”, etc are a bit dull!

Nice one, will watch this space! Cheers

Just listened all the way through, congratulations to all involved, brilliant project. Figure 09 goes HARD! Will there be a follow up instrumental album like was done with Viscera? 👀

Really looking forward to giving this a spin. Thanks for the gift, everyone involved. Fantastic Christmas present. Cheers!

On Minutes To Midnight's page: ""In Between" and bonus track "No Roads Left" feature Shinoda's first solo lead vocals since 1998's "So Far Away", found on the LPUnderground 12 CD." could be changed to "...since 2003's "Massive", found on the Lost Demos CD of Meteora|20."

I do like your theory about Crawling/ Hunger Strike/ My December, could hold water! I made a custom LPU8 around that time with the following: 01 Lockjaw (LPU exclusive download) 02 New Divide (because why not. I was going for an LPU6 vibe with the track list) 03 Wake 2.0 Live (wasn’t on a CD) 04 Lying From You Live (I liked the new intro) 05 Leave Out All The Rest Live (the RTR version was released as an LPU preview) 06 We Made It Live (since it wasn’t on anything else)

God bless Reddit. More the Victim is excellent, holy crap. Fighting Myself, I'm going to hold proper judgement until hearing it without talking over it, but sounded decent too.
