  1. Requiem + Radiance FOR THE FUCKING WIN

     

    I love both,especially "The radiance",when it's played b/w "Numb & Breaking the habit",my inner soul sings the song.'The requiem" as opener,love it

     

    Requiem would be great if it straight went into a heavy instrumental like the Don't Stay Summer 2004 intro or the OSC gunshot intro #1 (2007/early 08)

     

    Glad we feel the same way :)

     

     

     

    Probably the three best intros ever. Gacela of Dark Death blows my mind!

     

    I saw The Requiem/The Radiance in NYC in 2010 and it was fucking epic. It pumped me up so much... then it went into New Divide which blends well with those two tracks. I have absolutely no idea why they did not do that the entire ATS tour......

    THANK YOU!

     

    I was gonna say, there where far too many people putting the Requiem/Radiance on their "worst setlists" on the first page. Its probably one of the best, if not the best album/live openers LP have done thus far. I was dying inside when i was reading it in the comments! :lol:

  2. I totally agree with the last 5 posts above. I doubt it'll happen though, but i'm still holding on to the hope they'll AT LEAST release the full acoustic set in HQ one day. Plus 20 eyes as well. What makes it worse is that we know these recordings exist, ad that Chester HAD expressed interest in releasing them. so whats holding them back? copyright? surely not with the acoustic stuff :/

  3. So Far Away is far and away the best song on here :lol:

    Not just cause it was complete, but its another finished gem of a pre-HT demo. Its so different and experimental compared to everthing else at the time (along with the other demos leftshoe18 mentioned).

     

    I really wonder if we have them all yet? or if their still holding loads back! :o

  4. My ideal tracklist for Minutes to Midnight is roughly this:

     

    1. The Requiem

    2. The Radiance

    3. Burning in the Skies

    4. Empty Spaces

    5. When They Come For Me

    6. Robot Boy

    7. Jornada del Muerto

    8. Waiting for the End

    9. Blackout

    10. Wretches and Kings

    11. Wisdom, Justice, and Love

    12. Iridescent

    13. Fallout

    14. The Catalyst

     

    And then instead of calling it "Minutes to Midnight", call it, "A Thousand Suns". And then throw those other 12 songs in the trash.

    Woah thats harsh! :o

  5. The POA one has an added pre chorus part in verse 2 so it's technically a demo we don't have.

     

    Forgotten I think is one we have already.

    As i haven't been able to hear the CD yet, is it Chester's version of Rhinestone or is it Marks?

  6. [...]

    Oh dear :lol: But I'm with the band on this, they've been over to Europe every year for the past 2-3 years. Probably 3 times as much a band twice their size wouldn't even do on tour. If that isn't dedication to the fans I don't no what is.

     

    I missed them the first time they came to the UK, 2nd time due to clashing with another band (ironically this was the one they cancelled). But 3rd time lucky! one of the best gigs I've been to in 2012. :)

  7. I've always been a firm believer that the HTEP is probably LP's best work (even after ATS) ever since I first heard it. Its something about their early work like alot of you guys have been saying that is so unquie & inspired. There was no inhibitions, no holdbacks, just the band being the best they could be with no label or even no fans to dictate them what to do. And their music was stella because of it. Brad's guitar work was experimental & complex, the lyric where innovative & thought provoking, chester was on the top of his game & Mike's rap's where spat with sheer passion.

    Not to put their latter works down in any way (as their song writting is still top notch) but i will always be fond of this era (HTEP especially).

  8. The times for each track were posted on Wikipedia, but I don't know if they are real or not. Since its ya know...Wikipedia

     

     

     

    1. "Lost in the Echo" 4:11

    2. "In My Remains" 3:45

    3. "Burn It Down" 3:51

    4. "Lies Greed Misery" 3:15

    5. "I'll Be Gone" 4:56

    6. "Castle of Glass" 5:02

    7. "Victimized" 3:34

    8. "Roads Untraveled" 4:05

    9. "Skin to Bone" 3:54

    10. "Until It Breaks" 2:59

    11. "Tinfoil" 2:07

    12. "Powerless" 4:45

     

    Hmm. Most likely fake considering its from wiki, although, I wouldn't be surprised if we get something similar after what Mike said about the "firecracker" record with short punchy songs.

     

    And there was me thinking they'd go all out on the song lengths on this album :( I so longing for more LP songs over 4-5 mins. I don't wish this album to be a back step from ATS cause so far its sounding pretty damn good.
