I'm surely thinking that way because i've seen other artists/bands out there that have to follow the specific requirements for album release. everything is in contract. for label, they wanna make profits. for the band, they wanna an art to be creative, delivered to fans. sometimes, both will not goes for the same way. just wondering, why THP marketing worst than OML? i might think the label playing around with THP releases while OML, they pushed it futher because that's what they wanted. but maybe it's kind of nature thing in music world. to say WBR has no control, i dont know bout that because LP needs them instead of WBR need LP. they have a longtime deal. just like how Metallica created St. Anger, getting backlash from the fans and they comeback with Death Magnetic but wasnt fully enough. finally with Hardwired, they back to the roots. maybe for LP, they have plan to release a contrast album style after OML (could be rock album, electronic, idk) but eventually the plan has to be scrapped. this is just my opinion. i love OML but it's not up to THP. if LP can go on their own just like Blackened Records, that will be fkin amazing.

THP always better than OML. that's my opinion. OML is like an album where the label really wanted/force the band to do it after THP didnt do so well in the commercial market. gotta say WBR is the mastermind of everything. they literally make THP failed so badly by having worst marketing, tour and more. so, the band had no choice by following the order to make this pop rock record which most of the fans really disappointed. personally, the album is good but not better than the rest of their catalogue.

I got a feeling METEORA might get this kind of release since it's not far away to their 20th anniversary but for the rest, still long way to go. For Metallica, they didn't care much bout anniversary. when they start out with Kill Em All & Ride the Lightning, it's for the 33rd and 32nd anniversary respectively. maybe they'll plan to release it earlier than waiting till 10th or 20th anniversary.

i imagine it'll be like Metallica releases. pages of collage with posters, ticket stubs and more. i know right? proper releases of "She Couldn't" will be great. once it release on streaming platform, people worldwide will listen to it for the first time (not for hardcore fans obviously).

most probably closer to the original release date for Hybrid Theory. Maybe Q3/Q4?

Hmm, nope. Chester did record his vocal on those tracks and send the tape right back to Mike and that's the reason why he come for audition later. the rest is history. i'm 99% sure we will get it soon. imagine the vocal. omg.

if i'm not mistaken, they do shot behind-the-scene but maybe it's not much as the other album forward. Example: there's a shot where Mike & Chester recording vocals for "Points of Authority" in the recording booth. I'm sure there's more of it.

Surely it will be available on Spotify. Just like how Metallica did. Since "Hybrid Theory" is masterpiece album, it won't be 1000 exclusive copies. But, the limited edition/bundles might have limited copies.

Gotta save up my money from now on. Never know what's the price gonna be.

I'm always excited whenever Mike release something. Bring it on!

Me too. Hmm. Anyone got a rip of it?

the way you clarify is nonsense. you make it seems like LP = Chester and when Chester's gone, LP should gone too. do you think bout the other bandmates that working hard before? no, i dont think you care. everyone knows that you and JZLP always the one who thinks GD is god and everything they did is perfect. whatever Mike did nowadays is considered trash to JZLP.

but you just did bro. you expecting LP is dead and Grey Daze will be continue the legacy of LP? not even close. better than Amends. sorry.

Amazing news! Thanks. It's better getting a small news than nothing at all.

GD fans won't admit it was a cash grab. that's sad.

Edited the "Flute Loop" instrumental from this CoronaJam session.

This shouldn't be in the Newswire at the first place. Not worthy. Anyway, JZLP and Subs can start running a new platform "Grey Daze Live" with a tagline that sounds similar to LPLive: "Hosted by FANS for FANS". It's kinda pathetic to think how this will ends. But hey, you guys deserve to love it but LPL doesnt need those input that you guys give. LP Ambassador is a initiative by LP management. they've been dealing with LP management long time and now, GD used them. GD can just ask Chester's fan but they know using LP fanbase can get them big coverage = more money.

He's back with another album theme instrumental demo, this time it's for "Reanimation"! I don't think he's gonna release it for free download as usual. To be honest, this demo sounds more like LIVING THINGS/LP RECHARGE stuff instead of Reanimation. What do you guys think?

After releasing a "Hybrid Theory-style" demo, now Mike back back with another theme, an ATS-style demo. There's no word from Mike that he will release it like he released the HT-style demo for free via LPU email. For now, you can check it out below and watch how he made the track. The samples in the track came directly from Mike’s ATS folder.

It's up now on YouTube.

it isn't really good track because it's not an actual song at the first place. Mike already stated that he'll making a demo based on HT style but not really a track that he'll polish like "Open Door". He just randomly jam within an hour to complete this. On the another note, I really love this track because it simply reminds me of LPU track back in the days. Not like the other Corona Jam session, he did lots of track which more like his solo stuff.

i think it's because of the piano style. the guitar style is more towards HTEP/Xero style. i keep repeating the track now.

I've tried to compare the one that he previews during live streaming and the one he released today, seems like he polish the song a bit. Not much but still you can hear the differences.

Listen to it! It's enjoyable. There's a harmony part right before the last chorus. It'll be a great single for Steve.

that was FAST. hahah. thanks for the heads up. Spotify will release it in another 4 hour here.
