their myspace hasnt changed...yet

did anyone see??? they changed the look of linkinpark.com!

so how long do you guys think these stems will be? 10 seconds each? 30 seconds each? more? and how many do you think we'll get?

just found that article, it talks more about the contest and about their upcoming live shows

the release date announcement is holding up the new album

when he said "any one of our stems" does that mean we'll be getting multiple clips tomorrow?

google-analytics.com/ga.js

this site is listed in the source code...anyone wanna give the souce code a look and see what it means...i really dont understand it

edit: looks like its some sort of tracker? showing how many people visit it? maybe?

from all of these messages it seems like the album is going to have a black/white/grey color scheme...did anyone else notice that?

and The Catalyst would be an awesome title for a song, and the lyrics seem awesome

mikes on lpu chat right now, said so on his twitter

maybe we're really over thinking this and maybe the numbers are the album cover...lol

i dont know about us getting info on the 26th...apparently its only a partial lunar eclipse...july 11th is a full solar eclipse which seems more likely to me for the one they would use

someone on lp.com had the idea that the clue points towards an eclipse...the next lunar eclipse is on june 26th and the next solar eclipse is on july 11th

i think mike wants us to use google...but i dont know what we're searching for

mike said it is rewarding to solve...im excited to find out what the reward is

according to a guy on the lp forums someone on lpa figured a good translation out...

"Brightness falls, the two explode forwards at once in the air, and the beauty would be strong and powerful, destroying land and time"

what does everyone else think of this one?

Maybe its...

If the brightness were to explode foward all at once the brilliant light would be too strong. It is really powerful and ground-breaking.

Meaning...that the new material is too much for us too handle all at once? I don't know, sounds like they're toying with us again.

I'm still trying to put this into a more coherent phrasing that doesn't sound like it came straight off of Babelfish (if Babelfish had the ability to translate from multiple languages at once).

 

luminosité - French, meaning "brightness"

ontplof - Dutch, meaning "explode"

edastada - Estonian, meaning "forward"

sekaligus - Indonesian, meaning "simultaneously/altogether"

airean - Spanish, third person plural form of airear, which means "to air." Being third person plural, it probably roughly translates to "they will release," in reference to the album.

sería - Spanish, third person singular of ser, which means "to be," probably meaning "it is" or "it will be"

kuin - Finnish, general connecting term that can mean "as," "as if," "than," "like," etc.

pracht - German, meaning "splendor," "gorgeousness," "magnificence," "glory," etc.

yang - Chinese, meaning "light"

kuat - Malay, meaning "strong"

sono - Numerous languages, meaning or related to "sound"

mäktig - Swedish, meaning "powerful"

terra-zerstören - Portmanteau of terra (Latin, meaning "ground/earth"), and zerstören (German, meaning "to destroy/ruin/corrupt"), which is probably meant to translate to "ground-breaking," especially given the fact that it's hyphenated

tyd - Afrikaans, meaning "time"

 

Putting it all together, I'd translate it something like this (and this does involve some personal interpretation, so it's up for debate): "At the end of summer, they will explode forward at once with a release that will be as magnificent and light strong. The sound is powerful and ground-breaking." I think "time" may be at the end for the last part to be translated as "most powerful and ground-breaking yet" or something to that effect.

 

Obviously that's not perfect, but I think it makes it pretty clear that while decoding this message was pretty cool, the message itself is pretty much a generic "New LP album at the end of summer, it's gonna sound awesome!" hype-building thing.

thats pretty much what i was getting...i was a little disappointed when i started translating it and realized it was more hype...i was hoping for maybe a release date or album title or something...who knows, maybe its called "Brightness Falls" or something like that. I doubt it though.

i dont give a crap if the new album is called " linkin park and the chocolate factory" . the album is gonna be badass!

"Linkin Park and the Chocolate Factory" sounds pretty badass to me. Way better than "Elephant Message" lol

well if the song he heard is going to be the first single, I think that means that we'll be hearing it soon too...hopefully.

yeah im not buying the whole elephant thing

this reminds me of before M2M when they had the construction site as their website and people were trying to find codes in the blinking lights

well thats why i asked about the source...I had no idea what any of it meant...thanks for clearing that up for me though

anyone try the source code? I have it open but really have no idea what any of it means...looks like there are a few links though

im just happy they gave us something to talk about instead of making us wait more

looking at my avatar, it kind of looks like the white dots start to from something on the left near the end of the loop...maybe oveer the next few days (or weeks) the loop will get longer and start to reveal the album cover? that my guess
