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)

Check out r/LinkinPark

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.

Of course it requires a subscription to listen online ... wouldn't expect anything less in this age 🙄

God bless VPNs 🤣 Enjoyable, though IMO very of-its-time. I can see why it was dropped from the album - though it's easy to say that in hindsight having had Meteora for 20 years! Would have made perfect b-side material though. I'd be curious as to what the alleged 2002 mix sounds like compared to this, whether it is any closer to the album. Or it's the same and M|20 version is just a remastering.

‘First in a series’? This was a month and a half ago now. Wonder when the next will drop.

The fact that it says 'Special thanks to Linkin Park' suggests that the remix was provided to them I'd suppose? Or it might just be a permissions thing

I’d agree it’s flipped in a way no one expected... doesn’t make it good though. IMO it doesn’t meet the quality of Reanimation. Sorry, not a fan of this one!

Maybe Deftest will just surface one day. Never say never and all that.

Looking on Amazon UK listing of deluxe package... Disc 14 lists the following: 24. Beat 23 (Joe Hahn) 31. Beat 10 (Mike Shinoda) 39. Beat 4 (Mike Shinoda) also 45. One Step Closer (Live from London, 9/16/2001)) doesn’t appear anywhere else. any ideas? not sure which disc this is, as there’s a lot of mixed up tracks from all the other discs.

Would be a nice move to allow for single ‘cd’ purchases for download rather than £50 for all... realistically the only track list there that most likely require is the Forgotten Demos, I imagine most ‘hardcore’ fans already have mp3s of the rest. I’d more than happily pay £10 for just that.

I don’t mind a studio version not being released. LFAA will remain a moment in time that way, and I believe that a studio release could quite easily disappoint. Look at Let Down for example.

Thanks very much, sounds good. I've used this to mix the demo verse onto the end of the album track. Now my OML playlist features an mega 4:33 version of Good Goodbye. Awesome.

I could see them continuing as a 5 piece. If the band were to write an album after a hiatus first, upon touring they'd have new material to play and as already pointed out by Hahninator, there's plenty of songs Mike could take lead with - LOATR, Iridescent, SOTD, maybe Final Masquerade. I realise I'm stating ballads but that's likely where Mike's range sits. The sets wouldn't need to be so long either - play shorter shows in smaller venues. I saw Evanescence in June, in London - they played 18/19 songs, and that didn't feel overly short for arguably such a big band. Whatever they choose to do, the fan base will rally behind them, just look at the outpouring of support after Chester's passing.

Quick thing for the show page - Habit: no acapella outro, the synth played but Chester didn't sing. In The End: crowd rapped the first verse, after chorus Mike rapped first verse again I think Chester flubbed the lyrics at the end of Nobody Can Save Me, since he stuttered a bit - that may need someone to confirm with me though.

Tickets are the same as the O2 Arena - £62.50 + £8.85 booking fee, so pretty pricey for a club show. I'll probably still go though.

- never mind, video wouldn't upload -

In case anyone going was concerned - the proposed Tube strike for 8th September has been postponed.

I'll be there, got the day off work

I agree with you, send the tan one back. Should look pretty sweet when they're all framed up! Be sure to post a pic
