Love the new album. I like every song on the record. I can't say same thing about OML. My favourites are Casualty, Cut The Bridge and Good Things Go. For me personally Good Things Go is a pure LP track. I don't see any similarities with Post Traumatic. It's a new type of rock ballad for LP. Mike has been always in the background during this kind of a track but he's very present there. I love his vocals in the song. I think Stained has a very strong Post Traumatic vibes.

https://myglobalmind.com/2024/10/29/linkin-park-from-zero-review/ I just found first album review.

Holy fuck. I don't wanna hear it until the studio version comes out. I'm freaking out right now😀 How would you describe this song musically? I really liked Heavy Is The Crown from Sylosis' last album. This is not a thrash metal song, right?

Already Over is definitely not a pop punk track. Obviously you don't know genres. It's clearly an alternative rock song.

Yeah, more music is on the way which is awesome. Thank god Already Over is not a standalone track. I also read he's gonna tour at some point so it's not like somebody said here he's semi retired. https://www.google.cz/amp/s/www.billboard.com/music/rock/mike-shinoda-already-over-solo-music-interview-1235435558/amp/ A new interview with Billboard.

From Stryker's twitter. Does anyone hear "In My Head" line? That's Mike's voice right? Mike did an interview with Stryker about Lost and all things LP.

I'm not saying he has said that but it seems like he's not interested in LP anymore. He's doing a milion things right now except LP. They could have done a small acoustic event over the past 2 years to let us know they're still here. I agree with you. They've done some music in the studio but later decided it's not working anymore. Mike is still talking about "I'm looking for a new path for me in music". It definitely shows LP is not his priority.

No. I think from his statements it's clear that LP is probably done. He's doing a lot of different stuff right now and making music with LP is not what he wants. Just my opinion. I hope I'm wrong but I think I'm not.

In the next couple of years? Next year hopefully. They will not be on hiatus until 2027. Anyway I'm really excited about the anniversary thing.

Metal Hammer posted article about Mike's favourite albums. In the description above the link was "former Linkin Park singer". People in these magazines are dumb as fuck. They know shit and write absolute nonsense.

What reunion? They've been working on a new music so they're going to play shows again. Phoenix said they're not done. Or do you mean just Hybrid Theory show with multiple singers? Sorry I'm a little bit confused.

you don't know anything, man. Why LP should sound like Mike's stuff? That's absolute bullshit. They can do pretty much anything. Hard rock, rock, rap, alternative etc. There is only one limitation with Mike as a frontman and that's screaming and really high notes. Besides that, he can do anything.

This is a sleepy setlist, right? I remember when Chester said during THP era they wanted to make an album with a lot of energy. They didn't want make an album full of mid-tempo songs, because the shows would be super boring and sleepy and they're known for high energy sets. I don't think Mike wanna play sleepy and boring shows. He wants to play One Step Closer or Given Up, but they don't know how. You just can't ignore the whole catalog of music and play only 20 songs over and over again. It doesn't make any sense. I don't wanna write my dream setlist cause we don't know who's going to sing. I hate when people say "they don't have to play heavier songs. LP could play only softer and radio stuff". Fuck this bullshit. Seriously.

Yeah, Mike has not been releasing pop music recently. Post Traumatic is really rap/alternative album and the most recent thing Fine is straight alternative ala Nine Inch Nails. That being said, I don't like anything with Steve Aoki. He's good guy (charity work, friendship with LP), but his music suck. I used to listen dance music in college but now I can't stand it.

I absolutely agree with Hahninator and graveguard. If they make a comeback, we're gonna get a new studio music at first. Anyway do you know anything about LPU19? Will they do a same thing like the last year? Just new LPU merch in online store and digital membership?
