  1. I asked myself the same question during the Minutes to Midnight era. Before the album or What I've Done was released, this picture (http://madamehunter.com/wp-content/uploads/linkinpark.jpg) was being used in the Linkin Park newsletter. Mike was at the front and Chester in the back, so I thought MtM would feature Mike more.

     

    Someone who disagree's... Tell me, besides being the "lead" singer, what else does Chester do that represents a frontman?

    I don't disagree, and I admit that a frontman has to (re)present the band, but appareance is also something. He is/was the frontman of the band in the previous albums and that doesn't mean that he can't be it anymore now Mike is doing more.

  2. Let's look at some numbers (Mike n Chaz's vocal contributions)

    I am really surprised that Mike didn't contribute as much vocals to HT as i thought. But it is still obvious his vocal input is reduced on MTM. A Thousand suns coming up later%

    Nice done! But as Blakebeats says, did you count the backing vocals along?

  3. It would be fine with me if they would pick Iridescent as fourth and last single (though it's again not a energetic one) and moved on with a new album. Not that I dislike A Thousand Suns, but four is pretty decent. Maybe a Transformers single afterwards and then the new album.

  4. They were thinking about lyrics, so I don't think a demo with the lyrics "deserts fade into the sky", "violent lullaby" excist.

     

    Don't Stay, LOATR with the finalized lyrics sung by Mike, Reanimation without the rappers and maybe those verses replaced with Mikes or Chesters and the rapping Shadow of the Day would be nice.
