    Linkin Park On Hulu

    LOL @ Mike blowing up on Brad within a minute of it starting. Holy shit a total headache to watch with all the editing. Terrible editing. Seriously? They have to introduce the band? This is the what, 4th Making Of DVD we've had and they introduce the band NOW?

     

    RICK IS IN THE DVD

     

    Rob had one part. But Joe was in the DVD doing 10x more than he did for MTM lol. rofl @ Catalyst in the middle.

     

    End is insane. All the building up. Chester's speech at the end is EPIC. You can see they talk about Tom Whalley a lot and LP managers, etc. Chester said FUCK the deadlines, fuck the 3rd party influence bullshit, fuck the record label telling them how to make songs. Phoenix said fuck this record label wanting a 3 minute radio single. This is GREAT MATERIAL. I wish we had more lol.

     

    End really is the craziest LP footage I've ever seen. Chester has such a great little role. I love that. The clip before Wretches I believe came from this.

     

    The record label talk by Mike is interesting, he said it should be canceled if they can't meet the deadline. It seems the band REALLY REALLY battled with them on this CD. I bet they say fuck Warner eventually and do it on their own. This looks insanely stressful. What a DVD. Editing sucked but I really loved it, especially near the end. Are the Wretches lyrics about the label? LOL "People up top push the people down low"

    I really thought this video was intense. My opinion though, as described by another member "the last part at the end, that wasn't just a speech by Chester. The band was seriously considering breaking up because of the label restrictions and pressure. The band wouldn't be so morose and serious about not meeting a deadline. Mike's question wasn't about the time they have left making the album. It was the time they had LEFT. They came THAT close to not being a band anymore." And I truely believed that when I watched it the first time before reading that comment. They nearly blew the deadline on meteora before and it wasn't nearly shown to be THAT stressful and serious compared to this.

     

    I swear to God this made me more scared about the band's future than actually enjoying the content. Linkin Park really needs to fucking leave Warner Bros. They obviously chose The Catalyst as a single as a FU to warner.

    It Leaked (ATS/LT/The Hunting Party)

    Give it a few hours, I'm working on one.

     

    Also, just to clarify something to people downloading the leak: There's an alleged 320kbps rip going around right now, it is NOT legit. It's just an up-converted version of the 192kbps rip that leaked yesterday.

    also, tracks 12 to 15 has this really scratching noise that ruins the songs, I decided to stick with the 192kbps that I downloaded earlier.

    How about instead of going to see them in Argentina, you find a way to go back in time and go to the first Brazil show, since you're clearly stuck in 2004.

     

     

     

    Uhh, no. Just no. They'll continue to play their old songs live, genius. And he might have to use it on some of the new material as well, depending on what tuning they end up playing some of this stuff in.

     

     

     

    If it chases off people like you, I'd say they made the right decision with this album.

     

     

     

    Let's see...this album has:

    -More rapping than Minutes to Midnight (more akin to Hybrid Theory)

    -More electronic-tinged songs than Minutes to Midnight (more akin to Hybrid Theory)

    -More scratching than Minutes to Midnight (more akin to Hybrid Theory)

     

    You can think what you like about the album, but saying there are no similarities between it and the music the band made in their early days is flat-out wrong.

     

     

     

    I stopped reading your post after the second line. Sorry, but if you expected a rock album, you've been completely out of the loop for the past 2 years. Your own fault for not paying attention.

     

     

     

    And you sir, sound just like one of those old blowhards from a long-socially-irrelevant generation that swears "real music" died when Elvis started swinging his hips or when the Beatles landed in New York. You've got 10 years on me age-wise (meaning you probably grew up worshiping Nirvana, one of the most laughably overrated bands in the history of music, but I digress...), but at 22, I'm significantly older than the majority of LP's fanbase. Roughly 90% of the music I own was recorded before 1980. And I can say with 100% honesty that I think this is the best album Linkin Park has ever made.

     

    Yes, that's right, for all the people who gasped at the concept or didn't have it register the first time I said it: I believe A Thousand Suns is a better album than Hybrid Theory.

     

    I read a comment on another site yesterday that really put it in perspective for me: "R.I.P. Linkin Park. Long live Linkin Park." I would be perfectly content if for the rest of their career, Linkin Park continued to break down all perceptions of what they sound like with each successive album. The idea of what "Linkin Park" is in the eyes of their fans and the media is something that deserves to die every few years, and then be reborn according to the ideas of the only 6 people in the world who truly have the right to decide what "Linkin Park" really is at any given point in time.

    I would love to read a review written by you on a Thousand suns, I really do

    Yeah. I don't like the ending of the lyrics. That's one the things I don't like about the song. The rest of the lyrics are ok but could be better. I still like the song though. Don't get the wrong idea. I love all LP songs except for one

    Which one would that be?

    Stop right there.

     

    Somewhere I Belong and good lyrics do not belong in the same sentence. The chorus is just cringe-worthy, and the rest of the song falls well below average, even by Linkin Park standards. Numb is also far too general and "teenager problem-centric" to be great lyric-wise. Faint, while being my favourite track from Meteora, and possibly my favourite song from the band, is also not so great. It's saving grace is the fact that the lyrics flow so well together with the instruments.

     

    If you can get past the opinion that Valentine's Day is "Emo", the song has some of the best lyrics in the band's discography! The song paints pictures I tell you! And to be fair, Valentine's Day is in the top 3 worst tracks on the album IMO. But you can't deny the lyrics are beautiful. And while No More Sorrow is probably one of the weakest tracks lyrically on the album, I feel it stands better than 90% of HT and Meteora.

     

    At least you aren't saying things like "Runaway and One Step Closer have good lyrics", because that would be ridiculous.

    You're saying I "wanna runaway" and "SHUT UP WHEN IM TALKING TO YOUZ" are not good lyrics?!?! :o
