  3. Mike talks about a collaborator whose song didn't make the album, Wyatt Durrette: We've learned on every album we've ever done. And not just in a production role but also from each other, and even on this new album from some of the collaborators. I'll give you an example. We have one of the songs, that actually didn't make the album, we wrote it with a guy named Wyatt who colabs with Zac Brown. He works with Zac Brown a lot, so all country music pretty much. And Wyatt doesn't play instruments and he doesn't sing, and he writes vocals. You go "how the fuck did he do that?" I don't understand how that works. And he came to town, he flew in, and he's just like, I feel like he could be part of my mom's family. My mom's family is like we're an West Virginian family, like half of them play football. He is like this big, you know, kind of country dude and he comes in and sits down and we start talking like "how do you start?" like "how do you do this?" He says, "well..." and he like draws his "well", "I actually have, I write, I write words in my, my diary." And he pulls up this little black book of little thoughts and musings and whatever, and it's just words, like random pairings of words. And he kinda throws them out on me but he's not singing and he's not writing a song per say, he's putting ideas together. And so I'm behind the piano and I'm going "ok" like "what if we pair this with that" and "what if we add these words or whatever" and it was a really weird way to start a song, 'cause it actually started with words in the book and like what's going on today and you put those together and, for me, that was a tool that I didn't have. Like, it never occurred to me to start with, like, just keep a diary or a journal of like weird phrases or whatever, and now I do that. Now I put it in my phone and I have that thing and if I find myself at a loss of a very good line I flip through on my phone. I flip through some of my little things and see if it inspires some cool words.
  4. The tracklists for 13 and 14 were on Discogs. The songs on 12 were listed on Last.fm. We weren't able to find the Rapology 11 tracklist, but I think we've already checked the previous ones from 1997 (10, 9, etc.) and the ones from 1999 (15, 16, etc.). The characters Mike created for 12, 13 and 14 were reused on the cover of Rapology 16 but there's no Xero song in the CD.
  5. Answering to a fan's commentary on Instagram, Chester revealed that a Grey Daze reunion will be happening later this year. For those who don't remember (or simply don't know), Grey Daze was Chester's band before he joined Linkin Park. Our staff member Lestat has a full Grey Daze Story detailing the history of the band and more for fans to read. Chester left the band due to internal conflicts and the feeling they were going nowhere following a series of unsuccessful showcases in Southern California sometime in mid-1998. The band had a reunion show scheduled for September 07, 2002 as a benefit for Bobby Benish, the former Grey Daze member who was having difficulty paying his medical bills since being diagnosed with a brain tumor. Unfortunately, the show had to be cancelled due to Chester's commitment with Linkin Park and Bobby Benish eventually passed away. Now, 15 years later, seems like we are finally seeing that Grey Daze reunion show. The details are still unknown at this point. We don't know if this will be a one time event, if they are only playing a couple of shows or if they are planning on recording new music, but this is certainly exciting news for fans of the group. UPDATE: It appears that the band will reunite for one show (and possibly two) for the anniversary of Club Tattoo. The confirmed show seems to be at the Marquee Theater in Tempe, Arizona and will likely happen between August and October. A second show is being considered for Las Vegas. The lineup will feature Chester, Mace Beyers (bass), Sean Dowdell (drums), and Jason Barnes (guitar). More information should come during the summer. Sean and Mace have both confirmed that the event will be happening, as well. Be sure to check out our extensive Grey Daze Story to learn more about the band. And we have a huge list of Grey Daze shows for you to check out as well.
  6. http://mix941fm.cbslocal.com/2017/04/19/mike-shinoda-on-mercedes-in-the-morning/ Transcription by LP Coalition: Q: We are in touch with Mike Shinoda. Good morning, Mike! M: Good morning, how are you? Q: Great! I can not believe that Linkin Park is coming back to us. I adore you, and you will participate in the SPF festival. How excited are you? M: This is very exciting. This will be a very special performance, because on the same day our new album One More Light is released. Q: Oh my God! That is, we will be the first to officially hear all this! It's so cool! M: Yes, the album is released on May 19, the same day that we are performing. Q: Yes, besides, it will be Friday, so you will come, light, play something from the new album, and on Saturday you can sleep and enjoy other performances. M: Let's try. And you planned a great concert, cool. V: Yes, very cool. I want to ask you, Mike. I'm a longtime fan of the band, and I wanted to ask the person directly from the group. I was at one of your concerts in the Linkin Park T-shirt, which I bought at the previous concert. And people said: "You can not wear a Linkin Park t-shirt for a Linkin Park concert." It's true? You can, right? M: I've never heard anything like it in my life. I heard only the opposite. Our fans are always wearing Linkin Park T-shirts. Q: And what if I bought a T-shirt on the day of the concert and immediately put it on? This is normal? M: I want to say that we always do something for our fans. And when we perform, we arrange meetings with our fans, 75 people come to them, and we communicate with them. Q: My husband and I are members of the club, but one day he got to a meeting, but I did not, and I sat and waited for him. Q: Have you ever been asked to sign on your hand or on your chest? Were there any strange cases when people asked to sign something? M: People are often surprised when you tell them that many people are asking to sign on the skin so that they can then make a tattoo. And in some ways this is due to the fact that Joe and I went to the art school, so they are more confident in our ability to paint something on them. And one thing when they ask to sign. They often ask me to draw something. Q: And what did you draw the last time? M: I used to draw characters from cartoons in my childhood, so I usually draw little men. But one day a girl asked me to draw something, so she later made a tattoo. And I asked her what she wanted, and she said: "Draw a bear." And I tell her: "I warn you that I do not draw bears so often, I do not even remember when I last drew a bear." What if I draw it and it turns horrible and you have to make a tattoo out of it? ? " And she says: "Oh, yes great!" So I drew this bear and it worked out well. So everything turned out well. Q: I learned something about you, and it embarrassed me. So I want to know if it's true or not. Your favorite pizza is pizza with pineapple? M: Not my favorite, but I like it. We call it Hawaiian pizza, although I think it has nothing to do with Hawaii. But these days it is such a widely discussed topic. Q: There is a secret pizzeria in Cosmopolitan, you can not ask to add pineapple to the pizza. If you come, do not you dare to order a pizza with pineapple. M: And if I order a pineapple separately, and while nobody looks, will I add it to the pizza? Q: Loophole! Q: That's it! This is a Loophole from Linkin Park. We are looking forward to seeing you here at Cosmopolitan, in Las Vegas. I have to tell you, Mike. I do not know if I am the first person to say this to you, or you are constantly being told, and you are already tired of it. Did anybody tell you that in one song words are changed into your name? M: I hear about it for the first time. Q: Okay. This is the song My Sharona. I can not sing it like that! I sing Maaike Shinodaa! M: I love it! Thank you! Q: We are looking forward to your performance on SPF on the same day as the new Linkin Park album - One More Light. It's so good to hear something new from Linkin Park. And thanks for taking part in our program. M: Thank you for inviting me.
  7. Even though I'm not a fan of what we've heard so far, I really wish they would play the album in full. Would be really cool for an album release show.
  8. Any updates on this?

  11. "Focus on lyrics" is turning out to be the worst Linkin Park album ever in terms of lyrics. I don't know about the sound of this one yet, but I didn't like what I've heard on Heavy and Battle Symphony.

  17. We've had some disagreements lately about how we should deal with songwriter credits on Linkinpedia and we decided to ask here what our forum members think we should do. First, we have decided early on our main source for credits should be Linkin Park's BMI repertoire, but the problem with this idea is that usually every band member gets credit for every song (like Chester getting credits for Coal, a song he obviously didn't work on). We think this could have something to do with who gets royalties for the songs. Sometimes guest performers aren't credited on BMI either (in With You for instance, only one of the Dust Brothers is credited). We could check ASCAP in the latter case, but it also contains some inacurate information (like Emile Haynie, who worked on Final Masquerade, also being credited for A Line In The Sand). Sometimes, when they don't credit every band member, BMI credits don't match with what the album booklets say either (Dedicated is the perfect example). I personally think the best way to go would be to check the album booklets for credits, but we also have some cases where, in different releases, different band members are credited for the same song. Another thing we are concerned about is the fact we've added credits for Grey Daze songs based on this table, completely disregarding who worked on the music. Instead of having simply "songwriters" on the pages, we are thinking about splitting it into "lyrics" and "music" (for every page, not only Grey Daze pages). Here's an example of how this would look like: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Core_(Stone_Temple_Pilots_album)#Track_listing We want to hear your opinions on all of this before making any changes. How do you think we should handle the songs' credits?
  18. Someone who wanted to make money. Say what you want about those guys' work, but it sells.
  19. Thank you very much for this! Looking forward for the rest. Just one thing I wanted to ask for future pictures: I think doing this (instead of having 2 pages in each picture) would make the texts easier to read. Also, I realized we haven't seen the cover yet, so I was wondering, is there a title for the book?
