U2 and madonna can still sell out any venue even though they have brought out nothing but crap the last few years, its because they established them self in the 80's and 90's with big albums and thus got a huge following and became 'household names'. LP has only been around for a decade since HT, so you cant really expect them to be able to get draw 50000+ people anywhere.

And even though lp are very energetic live, chesters voice just aint that good live, some people want the band they support to sound exactly like they do on the albums.

ATL is one of my most favourite songs of all the time from now on:P

almost every element needed for a great song is included in that track, pure awesomeness.

Great job LP!

wonder if ATL will be played live next year?

that would be sick

well for example when i heard new divide for the first time i thought it was a total let down.

Now i like it a lot, but as Across the lines is like my favourite song right after listening it for the first time, wonder how much will I like it in the future:)

youtube:)?

across the lines is such a good song, wonder why it wasn't included in the album, because it is definitely better than half of the other songs.

heard everything except LOATR demo from youtube...

pretty good

3:02 you can see that main LP fan, who has 2000 LP tattoos. Can't remember his name. His a bit different now:P

Sal?

Initial feelings: not THAT pumped up about the album i have to say. Definitely some great songs, but i guess a bit too dark for me.

Top 3 songs(yeah, all slower songs):

1.WIC

wtf @intro?

2.Into You

had all the elements needed for a great song, maybe even better than WIC

<---->(bigger gap after WIC and IY)

3.Too Late

love the beat in the background:D

Let Down sounded pretty bad(the chorus repeated way too much in the end)

Condemned suprised me a bit, but some lyric parts were inconvenient for me to listen.("suicide" "kill me" etc)

6/10

totally addicted to Into You...

others are also great, but perhaps Too Late and WIC stand out the most.

love the song

perfect for car-driving.

It was just a joke, don't get your hopes up

Love the idea which they pointed out in the end, that they will make a festival with LP, DBS, julien-k performing.

his keyboard gets bottled, not him.

 

Also, the bitching about the bitching exceeds the bitching itself at this point. Most people are just interested in getting the rip, except for those complaining about the complainers.

pictures/videos of it?

any videos of mike getting bottled?

Hey Brad – so you're sitting backstage in Finland at the moment?

 

Finland, at the Sonisphere festival. It's very metal. Except for us.

 

made me laugh for some reason

well, it was totally true:D

lamb of god and stuff like that performing before them:)

need more interviews from Finland!

"What does Linkin Park do backstage?

I just did an interview where I was asked whether I drink beer or whisky, and I was sad to reveal that I’m pounding spring water."

any links of that interview?

Thank god for college! I got back from class and 10 mins later, Chester is on. [AndOne] told me and I was like...wow. They kinda need to announce it on LP.com or something when this happens.

just curious

or What do you study? (to be straightforward)

wow, pro-shot? http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0xwMYcG6al4

cumps from portugal

acording from a email i got back off channel 4 there not showing LP but i hurd there showing DBS crawl back in

ridiculous

Let's see...Dead By Sunrise was officially announced as an act at Sonisphere, so yes, they did pay for them. It was also confirmed well in advance that they'd be performing as part of Linkin Park's set, so it's their fault for not knowing. I also hear few, if any, similarities to Green Day.

 

But then again, it's a UK show. Nowhere else in the world will you find people who think it's acceptable to piss in a bottle and throw it at people on stage, so logical thinking and researching the show they bought tickets for is probably too much to expect of them.

nice rant

so i am back home...

 

what do u think about these two pictures?

are these during DBS show:D?

Linkin Park were actually amazing, again.

Session got everyone excited, and Given Up really let out everyone's energy (since I'd been waiting 11 hours for Linkin Park to come on stage, being at the front).

All the songs until Bleed It Out were pretty amazing, really good on everyone's part, especially Chester's. Bleed It Out started with the drum solo and went straight to the rapping which I thought was a nice change, and BTH piano intro was a pleasure to hear live. DBS wasn't received well by most people, because they didn't know what it was, but I enjoyed Crawl Back In and My Own Suffering, both quite heavy songs, especially the latter.

New Divide as an encore opener was fantastic. Since it was their newest song, and Mike came on with the long synth beat, it got the place mad. Faint got everyone moshing like hell, and OSC was just the best way to close!

(Heaven And Hell, too, were pretty awesome).

would have wanted to be there

"Faint got everyone moshing like hell" reminded me of Road to Revolution instantly.

Yeah numb needs to be stripped down and they need to stop playing loatr and soad which probably won't ever happen cause they're singles.

 

I just hope for some more energy songs.

if they dropped even one of those two(LOATR and SOAD) it would be good and yep, numb is getting really boring already:D

ehhh im sorry but Session opening really wasnt the best choice for this kind of show. They really should have opened with No More Sorrow long intro. but eh... hope LP steps it up next yr. It was kind of bound to fail

"DiegoA just left the Linkin Park gig. They were brilliant. 10 out of 10."

hmm:D

Need videos!
