Also Shinoda and Phx omg those guys are extremely healthy they have never missed any show?? 

 

 

 

Phoenix missed one at least https://linkinpedia.com/wiki/Live:20110923. But Mike none. 

I won't complain if they keep that encore for the remainder of the tour

Not this year, but if, IF they do a MTM box set next year I could conceivably see it on it, even if it didn’t actually take place during the main MTM cycle. I base this theory off of how Metallica released 2 1995 shows on their box set of Load recently and that was also an “escape the studio” tour.

I have the same feeling, before that I completely discarded SS06 as part of the box set.

Also, I still think that, despite LP 2.0 and a future album, we will have a box set, although with a limited promo

It’s very good to me. I have the vinyl from the box set I love it. 

I would love to have also the CD version in the boxset

Westminster in 2000 is one that comes to mind, I think. I love this short-lived era of the band. They literally had a couple of months of being a small act before they took off. It's insane and pretty much unparalleled.

When was the exact tour when they really got big?

The band probably didn't release it (or the Roxy 2000 show) because Scott is on bass.

I don't get it, why releasing a show with a session bass player is such a big deal?

Love that Dave once in a while talks about Chester, its really weird that the rest of the band members barely mention ROB.

Talking about Rob wont give clicks to any news outlet i wonder when someone is going to ask some deep questions about Rob.

Only the hardcore fans care about Rob. Not that the casual fan despise him at all, it's just as someone gets the job done behind the kit, they don't care who is it.

If they are still playing his songs they should honor his legacy by releasing old demos w Chester on vocals it wouldn't hurt anyone.

 

LP2 is nice and awesome i loved them too but Chester's voice is the reason if why im still a hardcore fan after almost 25 years.

I agree with you BUT, we should wait a little bit longer, LP2 barely is year and a half old, and I think that releasing anything now would be detrimental for the band. If we've waited 20 years to hear the Rob Drum Song, we can wait too to hear some more stuff with Chester.

Yes...I would expect many more hits from back then to be there, actually.

 

You are right about Lost and Friendly Fire, and there will definitely be more hits from the other albums, too. I just hope they will feel well enough at some point to release them.

Some people took it as "Lost is a mediocre song" but my take was and is that Lost was a huge success due to nostagia and right timing. 20+ years has passed since the nu-metal peak in the mainstream world and now it's "cool" again to reivindicate that genre. 10 years ago that wasn't possible. Second, we millenians we've reached out that age (around 30s) where we start to idealize that music of our youth. I'm a hardcore fan, like many of you, but many of my peers just listened the first two records (three if we count Reanimation) and gave up during MTM because, basically as a teenagers we didn't want anything to do with our "childish music". Which takes me to my third point: The song has this classic LP vibe, so many of those who ignored the band beyond 2007 now they feel connected the band again.  That third point didn't happened with She Couldn't, it wasn't your classic LP song, as simple as that. Not even the pandemic helped She Couldn't to have more visibility. 

Based on this, we have two roads ahead of us:

If the new song it's a What I've Done part 2, as Lost was similar to Numb, then yeah, you'll probably have another huge hit, since WID, BIO and New Divide are basically the songs post-2004 that kept the interest of the mainstream crowd.

On the other hand, if we're talking about a Blackbirds, In Pieces, No Roads Left esque song, then you're for a big disappointment for the big crowds, and could happen like with She Couldn't, people could care less. 

I was fully convinced about having a new box set in 2027, since the band would be fully stablished again. But damn, you're right, another hit like Lost could do more harm than good. It's a tricky situation for sure. So I'm on board with many of you. Anything we can grab: a streaming, a CD/DVD combo we will be grateful for. 

But releasing boxsets just from the first two records would give the image that the band only considers worthy those first two and the rest are just forgettable. Not the best image though

How is it too late when we are still in 2025 and we are talking about spring 2027? 
Digging for demos from 2005-2007 should be way easier for LP than digging for demos from 1998-2003. 

Tough question, they have way more demos from the 2005-2007 I believe. And I would dare to say they even have even more songs on more advanced phase, akin to Massive or More the Victim. I think they are gonna have a harder time curating what's in the boxset 

Well, we kinda have our 20th anniversary celebration!

I still don't understand why Korn doesn't want to release this track after Chester passed away I thought that they were going to release it as a tribute but still nothing happened.

 

Any update on this? 

Probably legal reasons and no one with lack of self control to accidentally leak it

It’s not the genre, it’s the band. After MTM their popularity dropped massively out here.

 

Playing Geelong is like playing Orange County - you’re in LA, but not LA.

Why? Sure the touring numbers back up your theory, but I want to understand the reason behind it

Ap was mentioning Mike a few times in the interviews, Mike was in one of his videos, he mentioned him on the "Get Busy Commettee - Uzi Does It", and I have thoughts about it, but after seeing this video, I'm not sure anymore if my thoughts are correct. It kind of feels like he changed a bit what he was thinking about Mike. Or maybe I'm wrong about it.

What do you mean?

Yeah, too bad that to remove transition they also remove portion of intro/outro of some songs. That sucks. But it is what it is. Shame.

 

Also, not sure about it but if they use the CD source, I mean if they use the 16-bit lossless that they have and then export it to 24-bit/96.0kHz then it is out of sense too in that case.

It's weird, for sure. If they had the master tracks they could just have remove the transition without cutting anything. For example, leaving the last scratch on SMSTYM, instead of finish up with the Chester talking sample. 

These are minor complains, the HT20 case was way worst, but I mean, after spending months preparing this box set, I feel that they could have avoided these issues

So basically the only "real" loss was Easier to Run, right? I mean, the removal of certain transitions is part of the game to make everything run as smooth as possible, and the loss of a couple of seconds of crowd noise in Crawling... I can live with that. But if you cut dialogue for me is a failure. Just my personal take

if u wanna know more about her theres an interesting interview about her story in the industry where she answers all questions

Link?

What happened exactly with Reseda Beach? Warner just said said "I don't like this stuff" and left SOB with nothing?

Might become their longest tour?

Man, Ryu is one of those unlucky guys, he tried several times but he should have more success

I’m sorry directly to you for saying that. And Trumtram thanks for pointing this out. About me. It’s something I’m thinking about now and will try to be more mindful of. 

Nah dude, don't worry, no hard feelings. Life has shit enough to be worried about this

Wells that’s nice to know! And nobody is always 💯 positive or correct anyways. I’m surely not always positive, I will have my moments like when I read the Coke thing. But I’m sorry for calling someone an idiot. I didn’t have to insult anyone 

That was me

I was the guy saying the shit of coke because some rumours I've heard. I puta the Linkinpedia as an example of the second thing. Don't blame them, blame me.
