Hi, I have some very exciting news for you. Today, you can finally pre-order for our album, A Thousand Suns, on linkinpark.com. The album comes in two forms: a CD/DVD package, or super-mega-amazing box set (which contains a CD, DVD, vinyl, a book, and other magical stuff). There is also a limited-edition, custom skate deck autographed by the band, and a brand new album art t-shirt. The digital version of the album is included FREE with all purchases. We'll email you the album first, before anyone else. And if you decide to buy all of the stuff I've just mentioned, you'll even get a discount. One other major perk of buying from linkinpark.com: you also get early access to purchase tickets for our US tour (which is coming soon). I can't wait for you guys to hear this album. We've put all our energy into it, taken risks, and crafted something we believe is truly special. Click here to pre-order A Thousand Suns. -Mike SO EXCITED FOR THE US TOUR!!!!! However not so happy about LP doing the presale tickets like this. LPU is losing more and more. Source: http://www.linkinpark.com/profiles/blogs/message-from-mike

Out of Ashes Thanks for posting. My computer is being a pain and won't let me see this on the site. :S I think we're all a bit surprised by the album art. Give it a day to sink in. At this point I'm so hyped about the cd they could've put an elephant on the cover and I wouldn't care.

If LP has taught me one thing, it's patience.

Oh. That was smart of them. However now we NO idea of what this'll look like.

I know. But its just weird that it sort of looks like it. Maybe I'm just seeing what I wanna see. I wish people would tweet and get this thing shown already!

The pic is looking more and more like that "fake" pic that was going around.

You are not alone. http://twitpic.com/274lee Too bad that we only get one pixel. My poor followers though. I keep tweeting to hear the snippet and see the pic.

Here's a pic of it. http://twitpic.com/274htb

Holy Crap I'm excited!!! Guitar solo, Mike and Chester singing, more Mike rapping, LONG SONGS!!! I can't wait for this album!! Might skip class that day to listen to it! 57 days to A Thousand Suns and 14 Days to Catalyst!!!

Hmm this is getting interesting. You guys are amazing for seeing all this stuff. I just thought it looked like a cool cover. Dunno if I like the idea of no text being on the cover. :S

Wait wait wait!!! We can do original stuff????? I thought we couldn't do any of that. :S This is a bit confusing.

This is the best one I've heard. (downloaded it!) It sucks that you can't enter it. I would've voted for it.

Ditto. It's 3am my time. I hope someone can figure out the Chester thing. He sounds amazing even with all that distortion and I can't wait to hear it acapella!

That rip doesn't do Chester justice. I guess someone must've used their phone. This site sucks though. When Mike wakes up I'm sure he'll do something about it.

Dang it. It didn't have Chester. If someone could tell me how to rip mp3 I'd do it for you! I want people to hear Chester not Mike!!!

I know what you guys are doing. Just click the BIG play button and wait. Don't click the one that says vocals! That would be my fail. So add that to what I had earlier and we get.... Mike God bless us, every one. We're a broken people living under loaded gun And it can't be outfought it can't be outdone it can't be outmatched it can't be outrun, no... God bless us, every one. We're a broken people living under loaded gun And it can't be outfought it can't be outdone it can't be outmatched it can't be outrun, no... Chester And When I close my eyes tonight Two symphonies of blinding light Mike God bless us, every one. We're a broken people living under loaded gun Ohh Chester like memories in cold decay tranmissions echoing away far from the world of you and I where oceans bleed into the sky *Piano and Drums*

No. There's drums, keyboard and vocals with heavy distortion on Mike.

Anyone (who can hear it) wanna guess what Mike is saying. And 100% YES Chester is on this!!

Ok I'm trying to get the lyrics Not sure with Mike but I'm 99% with Chester Mike God Bless Us Everyone We were broke People living under loaded gun let it get me i fought **** (no idea) No God Bless Us Everyone We were broke People living under loaded gun let it get me i fought*** (no idea) Whoa Chester And When I close my eyes tonight Two symphonies of blinding light Mike God Bless Us Everyone We Were Broke People Living Under loaded Gun Ohh Chester like memories in cold decay tranmissions echoing away far from the world of you and I where oceans bleed into the sky *Piano and Drums*

I can only get one of the stupid things to work. Someone who is tech savy PLEASE post the rest here. Chester sounds AMAZING!!! Yeah don't like Mike so much but the sounds is so different. I like that.

New music!! I CAN'T WAIT TILL AUGUST 2ND!!! 24 days left!!

Nice. I'm happy to see the 8bit theme go.

I think this a great idea!! Being a LP fan for as long as I have been there's one thing I know.....LP fans are amazing!! I have faith that someone will produce something great. My only problem with this is possibly a non LP fan could win. That would suck. Marking my calendar for September 14th! I can't wait to get this album!! The next great news I need now is when LP will tour the USA.

I can't imagine Chester doing this. I really wish he was doing a studio version of A Whole Lotta Love, but I have faith that Chester will do great. September is going to be an amazing month!!

I'm awed by how you guys have worked this out. Just awed. Single! I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
