bloodbath

I would be gladly surprised if Mike did a song in the style of those artist. Again, too soon to say anything

Much more upbeat than I expected

Is there a link anywhere?

He's been in that mood since Scream 6, and I have no issues at all

I get where this feeling comes from, I don't expect anything, for me the band right now is a legacy act, so I'm happy with this kind of stuff

A Fort Minor comeback would be great. Since Mike is doing much better since his solo album/tour, I think he could afford to do something not so "serious" and personal

Why did the Projekt Revolution ended? The tour was immensely popular for the band, and specially the 04 and 07 were among the best yours the band has ever done. Was it because of money? Did the band got tired of having to organize that entire tour...?

https://www.vice.com/en/article/vba3mb/mike-shinoda-interview-slayer-reign-in-blood-2018 I know is quite old, and probably some of you back then already shared this interview, but I just remembered it and I had to give my thoughts. Since LP and Slayer are among my top bands, it's kinda curious see how that connection only exist in my head, how one of my favorite artist has never heard in its entirety one of my favorite albums ever. It's funny to read some Mike's remarks, like how for him is strange to hear Angel of Death without being a Public Enemy sampler, and how he praises Slayer for being able to keep up intensity during the whole record, something that he doesn't do, he needs dynamics (which makes sense seeing the LP setlists composition, with that calmed middle part) or how's amazed by Slayer's lyrical obsession with death. Whether you're a Slayer fan or not, it's a funny little interview

I'm still thinking that LP themselves aren't the biggest fans of Living Things though

Nah, was just joking but I would have put some of the hardest songs at the end. I'm not a big fan of OML, although I get the selection of songs and makes sense, for me takes out the best points of that tour (which I loved, btw)

Dude! What's wrong with a 27 song setlist? Plus you even cut my favorites from the setlist. You have a new enemy 🤣

If there's two weeks left I hope I have time to donate as soon as I get my paycheck PS: I'm from the opposite part of the world (Spain), would it be any problems with that?

Linkin Park has one of the most precise and meticulous discography, with countless layers of sounds perfectly mixed. I'd like to take those "experts" for a trip to other genres to truly know what's "horribly" mixed

I've been listening the whole HT Tour 2000-02 this year, and dude, I fucking love when they start to banter and giving the f-bombs between songs, specially with the Ozzfest crowds. Gotta love their attitude back then.

Do you imagine that one day we will have setlist of every show ever?

Truly impressive

Having to know how perfectionist Mike (and the LP guys) are, don't be surprised if they're holding it back together for some small reason that probably would me minimal for us but a huge of a deal for him

Next stop, a world tour presenting the 2 bonus tracks

Is it going to be a physical edition?

2007 - Holmdel, great setlist and performance 2008 - Edgefest Toronto. Everybody's is going to choose with the MSG show, but I'll go with that "acoustic" way to start up the show 2009 - Hard to say, same setlist, shows were cool but nothing out of the ordinary, I'd say Portimao. 2010 - Berlin. I usually choose shows with uncommon setlist, but the Bleed it Out/Burning in the Skies section has something really special. I always come back to it 2011 - MSG is one of my All Time Favourites, but since the DSP pales in comparison with the TV broadcast, and I love to go against the grain, I'll stick with Singapore. Killer way to end a tour. 2012 - Mountain View, although it could be any show with that encore of Faint, LFY/Papercut and OSC

I think you nailed it. The 2018/19 tour, like it or not was "limited" in terms of LP material. You know they can only play certain songs. But with more guest you open the door to have the a wider catalog. It will be cool to see... If it finally happens, of course

Tough question. This can go both ways, being impartial and select shows that the band played great even though you don't like the setlist, or an average show with a setlist that you love. I need to have a thought...

Maybe they were trying to archieve that deceiving scheme of "happy music with sad lyrics", which was a trend in the early/mid '10s (even Paramore released After Laughter, which Mike said he really liked). A dark sounding pop album would have been great, absolutely. But the problem with OML is, for me, that for the first time, the music sounds generic. Whatever genre LP played, they left a imprint on it. This time wasn't the case.

I think that Brad was making a reference of just including those two additional songs doesn't make an anniversary edition, making references to the 15th anniversary edition. But I think for a proper boxset, why not including them? Why I do see a waste of space is including DSP tracks on physical CDs. Why do I want a couple of tracks when I can get the whole show? BUT they should liberate all the DSPs from that era for a broader audience (yes, including the European Summer Tour 08)

Wasn't cigarettes making fun of the gangsta rap?
