Where are Serpent and Nursery?

Serpent never existed. It was Shortcut all along.

Not sure where you're getting Nursery from but that was probably Nocturnal which is Nobody's Listening.

Isn't "Shortcut" just "Fighting Myself"?

yes but that's an earlier version of it

I hope someone from Australia or New Zealand will drop a link to the album on Spotify

Aussie here, even if I did the link wouldn't work for you.

Be patient guys, trust me it's worth the wait.

EDIT: Looks like it's on youtube now anyway.

It's clear that during the making of Meteora there was a lot more experimentation going on wheras with Hybrid Theory they went in with half of the album being nearly finished, and how they worked really hard to try not to let it sound like a derivative of HT.

Ok but........ I would miss those funny/cringy joke vocals by Chester..... It now confirms that they never recorded those vocals above this demo.... 

it was confirmed when chester said it didn't exist lol
god if they actually tracked something that wack you'd think CB would know if anyone

I'm in Australia and I've got 2 minutes to go! HYPED AF

Over an HOUR of new video? Wow.

Watch us get clips of other unreleased demos LOL, Fiore loves teasing fans like that.

Wouldn't be surprised if Fiore just inadvertantly created new "grails" for fans to chase after 20 years in advance

MS's statement "I feel like we'll run out of demos if we did that" indicates that there's not a lot of demos for the future upcoming LP 20th Anniversary Albums (MTM, ATS, LV, THP, OML). 

Lmao he's totally lying here. That's obviously not the case if we're getting 14 brand new, never before heard demos, for Meteora|20.

M2M had about 150 demos.
ATS and LT basically used the same demos but there were a lot of those too. Like probably 50 for each album
THP and OML we're not entirely sure because there's not much documentation on the making of those albums.

Yeah, you are right, I counted it incorrectly:

34:18 + 17:04 = 51:22

118 - 51:22 = 66:38 - so that's over hour of new content.

Wow, there's probably a lot more footage than previously thought regarding the meteora recording sessions, given the name WORK IN PROGRESS it couldn't really be anything but that. There could even be footage of demos we don't even know about even after listening to the whole lost demos CD. God my theorycrafting is going wild. I just want to hear some new LP material again man.

I asked Mike about the Meteora remixes, and he seemed to have forgotten they were even a thing. So he either didn’t find them or he did find them and the band decided they weren’t good enough to include on a release like this.

 

EDIT: Just to clarify: When I say “ I asked Mike”, obviously I mean on his Twitch stream lol

He could have other plans for those, you never know, he could just be playing dumb. Trollnoda gonna troll.

I agree with you. You are reading my thoughts. And I also hope one of them will be The Wizard Song. Then we would get all unknown demos from Meteora videos.

I would say we probably don't have the Wizard song in its full capacity but perhaps in an instrumental form, I'm sure fans would go nuts over that then, creating their own "covers" and "remakes" of the song.

To mark the 20th anniversary of this landmark release, it is being re-issued in multiple formats: Limited Edition Super Deluxe Box Set, 4 LP Deluxe Vinyl Box, 3-disc

Deluxe CD and digital: all containing a wealth of previously unreleased or rare tracks. Among the unreleased tracks are several gems unknown to Linkin Park fans, including "Lost" - a fully realized track from the 2002 album recording sessions featuring stunning vocals from Chester Bennington.

Ok, so here's something I noticed that I would like to point out. Here's an exerpt of Chester talking about the album from the Meteora linkinpedia page:

Quote

https://linkinpedia.com/index.php?title=Meteora

According to a studio report from Mike, in total, the band worked on 15 full songs for the album, with 12 of them making the final cut.[8] Chester added, "We recorded 15 tracks total and there's 12 on the record. We were trying to figure out which ones would work together. An album is a package. It's a collection of songs that should have a common tie and there were a few songs that kinda stuck out. It wasn't that they were bad in any way. I'm sure any band would love to have those songs on a record, they're really good songs, but they stuck out like a (sore) thumb. We kind of make sure that we really have a full package that you would want to listen to from beginning to end, without wanting to skip over anything."

And if we look at the lost demos CD we have at least 3 songs at the start of the album (Lost, Fighting Myself, and More The Victim) that are all titled like like they have lyrics and are the would-be final titles of the songs, as if they are the three finished songs that Chester referenced in the above paragraph (he said 15 songs were recorded and only 12 made the album).

So we might not just be getting one completely finished Meteora "B-side" in Lost, but THREE fully finished Meteora B-Sides. They might just be trying to push "Lost" as the "Single" for Meteora20 as "She Couldn't" was for HT20.

This is speculation of course but I really hope this is the case, as that would be "Massive". 😂

As for the others, Massive, Healing Foot, Wesside, and Resolution, I'm expecting all of those to be instrumentals, and at least one of them has gotta be that demo from Making Of when Rob is tracking drums. It will drive me crazy if that isn't in there.

so has anyone got the stems or are they all locked behind the web3 wall?

Very keen, Watsky is an amazing rapper. I wonder how productive the session was.

I like 'Heavy' but these others are pretty much better.

 

Yeah agreed, they don't tend to pick the best first singles...

First line in Invisible is "I've got an aching head"

I'd absolutely love to hear All For Nothing live. And KTTK.

• There's a demo from 2014 on the CD, and three from 2015. None of these have vocals, though. This is the first time since LPU 2.0's 'A.06' that songs from the current album sessions are being released on an LPU CD.
• The album is just about wrapped up - the band are touching up the record now.

 

Never Give Up

 

Never (Gonna) Give (You) Up

Except then Mike spoils it and says exactly what it is. Does that seem like something Mike would do?

Lol. Mike/The whole scavenger hunt spoiled LIES GREED MISERY when the top 1000 sharers in share2earn were meant to get it.

That Bucharest crowd sure does suck at clapping.

Adam you sneaky thing.
