me too! i love CTB because it's like a jam song, where you can enjoy it. just like "Bleed It Out", people hate it at the first place. after watched the process on how it's done, now im more appreciated it. if they consider the final product as one of the greatest creation, who are we to judge them? lol. i mean, music is subjective. some people hate, some people love. you considered this as "rip-off" just because it sounds like BIO but technically, it's not the same. BIO ≠ CTB to be precisely. not just LP, there's tons of artists out there who created a song kinda similar to their greatest hits and yes it's amazing (eg: Justin Timberlake's "Cry Me A River" & "Mirror", they both sound-a-like but different) damn, i missed that one. haha. it's funny that Mike's save his rap lyrics in note way back from 2013. imagine how many of those rap verse more in there. 😂

“Branch and Arrow”, let’s hope they save it for future LPU demos. 💯✨ Phoenix gave the idea on what/how the chorus should be. They worked this song back in 2022 is damn, crazy. Mike’s hair so long, skinny Joe. Interesting behind the scene footages. ps: seems like they releasing the behind-the-scene videos in tracklist order. I guess we will get “Heavy is the Crown” video next week?

thanks for the info! didnt know how the streaming platform works. if that's the case, i believe we will hear it at the end of the month. 2nd May will be ideal.

possible it might release tomorrow or next week?

they never stop shooting. they always shooting every single time they're in the studios. it's just they just don't want to share it with (i'm sure there's a reason behind it). nowadays it's streaming/socmed time. posting short clip/snippets always gets attention and will direct them to the actual contents. ps: hope someone can compiled all LIVING THINGS behind the scene into one full length videos. as far as i know the footages exists was: INSIDE LIVING THINGS, LPUTV Exclusive BTS, etc. same goes for THE HUNTING PARTY & ONE MORE LIGHT.

just noticed that during Mike's rap verse, he passed the guitar to Emily but at this timestamp (2:17), he wear the guitar.

i think youtuber’s Nik Nocturnal, always compliment band like LP & BMTH for mastering of creating banger chorus, bridge, hook, etc. songs that people can sing-a-long, enjoy.

nothing silly about rer-elease an album as deluxe version. they did it all the way back in Hybrid Theory days with the same artwork, slaps "Special Edition" and add 2 new songs + live tracks. that's how label works. buying power is in your hand.

Zine version is one of the best purchase i've ever made! 💯 i'm glad im not the only one who not a vinyl fan. 😂 i love vinyl, looks great as collection but it doesnt catch my attention. but yeah, gonna pre-order the cd soon! hope you manage to get yours too!

no worries! i'm sure it will be available in stores for long period (just look at the FROM ZERO ZINE EDITION 😂), it still available till now.

there's 2 version for CDs. the Standard version will be available everywhere. the expanded version only from LinkinPark.com Standard: From Zero (Deluxe Edition) 2CD is a limited pressing. It features a 4-panel softpak packaging with 16-page booklet and two compact discs.* Expanded: From Zero (Deluxe Edition) Expanded 2CD is a limited pressing exclusive to the official Linkin Park music stores.

From Mike's tweet: "Up From The Bottom is here. In between tours, the band got together at my studio. As we listened to demos, everyone kinda agreed we didn’t have the song we needed. As we talked, I scribbled notes. When everyone went home, I started piecing things together at the piano. For days, I obsessively pulled at threads of unclear ideas, until a special one began to reveal itself. One of the most satisfying things I get to experience is the moment when I play a new song for my band—knowing it’s unfinished, but confident it’s going to be special. A huge thank you to my bandmates for their ideas, inspiration, and stellar performances on this one—and to @joehahnLP for yet another insane video." https://x.com/mikeshinoda/status/1905401927078404164

finally, official reveal of the (possible) cover art! (from linkinpark.com)

hahaha, never ending tour. it’s true tho. But if im not mistaken, Moon Music originally the part 2 of MOTS. But they changed the album name. Hence, that’s why they still touring under MOTS tour.

interesting take. if this gonna be BIG single, having a music video is the logical thing to do. maybe they did a MV shoot during their recent shows. ps: this song really sounds like "Asbestos" from LPU12, the fast paced song.

reminds me of System of A Down's Hypnotize/Mesmerize and Metallica's Load/ReLoad. not sure if this is true but on Genius it someone state the release will be on March 28th. "“Up From the Bottom” song is a single, which is scheduled for release on March 28th."

typical mindset when female lead vocal will always be compared to Paramore. hell, even Paramore doesnt sound Paramore (like they used to), they're even better now. agree with you, their recent album is one of their best work yet.

"Crawling" in the setlist is like a "tribute to Chester moment", so the band let the crowd sing most of the song, just like how they did "Numb" during Chester tribute shows back in 2017. this thing started when the FROM ZERO Livestream and Mike clearly said to the crowd, "in the role of Chester Bennington is each of you" and they carry it on since then.

found the full version of Reddit.

Sorry to break it to you, but it's totally the opposite. OMS was disaster. people listen back to LP because of From Zero releases.

it works fine for me. maybe the site is blocked on your side/end. it's okay, here's another link. https://www.mediafire.com/file/fj7pbu5qcp9x6eq/Mike+Shinoda+-+Live+at+Amoeba+Records+EP.zip/file

no worries man! forgot that i'm the one who ripped it few years back. 😅 this intimate show really special.

sorry, i wasnt noticed this posting earlier. here's the new link for you: https://dbree.org/v/156679

it's the opposite for me. MTM was bashed heavily because the lacks of rapping. that's what fans noticed at the first place. it's huge contrast between Meteora & MTM. yes, rock loud music still there in MTM but rap verse it's like the missing ingredients. "the lack of Mike rapping what makes MTM boring, try to make solid rock record but failed attempt", i remember i read somewhere bout the music blogger back in the days commenting bout it.
