    But that's an ugly-ass graphic design work.

    It screams "I have a nephew who knows Photoshop and can do it cheaper."

    I'm still grateful that we're getting new content. Though, I sort of understand why they decided to go with the low effort graphic designs and all. It could be that they had nothing to represent these singles and whatnot. Still, the designs we've seen so far are just, a bit of a let down really. Doesn't seem like they or the label, anyone really, want to celebrate all these gems throughout the years..

    I agree. It looks really low effort, like they don't care about this project at all and they just see it as a quick and easy way to make some money with the Linkin Park brand.

     

    Still cool to get new music though.

    I've always found Mike's answer quite... vague. "It's sound the same because I use the same keyboard". Well, you could use the same keyboard for a whole album and still don't "magically" create perfect transitions from the end of one song to the beginning of another. 

    Probably didn't know what people were asking about.

    Just going by the working title I'd say it's pretty safe to say that "Harmonic Song" is PMA because its verses are literally build upon flagelatte harmonics (same guitar technique as in ITE).

    Jeff Blue also told us it was Pushing Me Away.

    Also wasn't the High Voltage remix made after the HT album sessions? Didn't Mike already confirm this year's ago?

    A lot of people have pointed out that the strings at the end of Cure For The Itch transits into High Voltage. Mike said it's because he used the same keyboard and sounds on those two songs and By Myself. Jeff Blue actually owns a CD that has all 3 songs and High Voltage comes right after Cure For The Itch in the tracklist, so I believe that was the new version of High Voltage. It would mean that this version of High Voltage was created in the same period as other Hybrid Theory demos, not after the album was finished.

    I agree on that they needed to do a little touch up. The original mix though, is the same song at the end of the day, but it’s very different sonically from the newer mix, so since they have 2 mixes on the table, some variety is always nice, especially if this is like a historical collection of hit songs from their discography. All i’m saying is it would be cool if they used that version on this upcoming release, only upsides i see and no downsides to it this time around

    I disagree with this. There is a downside: this is a greatest hits / singles collection and the new mix was a single, the old mix wasn't. People listening to the song for the first time would have a different perception of it and people who are already familiar with the song would complain that it doesn't sound right.

    Sorry for my music ignorance, but in the Jeff Blue book transcription, the "different" songs mentioned that drums were recorded were "And One", "Slip" and "Pictureboard". Due to those been in other level of development (live drums), wouldn't be those songs the discarded ones from HT?

    Yes. Unless they were considering a song without live drums for the album. However, a lot could have happened during that time. I know Jeff's book has the recording schedule for those songs, but does he at any point confirms they were actually recorded? I'm asking because I don't have the book. They could have simply decided to skip those songs because they were already settled on what would make the album. I feel that whatever song they had finished for Hybrid Theory would had been on Hybrid Theory 20th anniversary edition. It wouldn't make sense for them to omit finished songs in favor of rough demos.

     

    For Meteora for instance, they said over and over again during promotion for the album that 15 songs were finished and 12 were picked for the album, and we got all 3 remaing songs last year on the 20th anniversary edition of Meteora.

    Do you think the announcement with whatever track 14 is will also coincide with the release of that song? Or maybe a release date for the song?

    I believe the album announcement will come with the premiere of the new single as it usually does.

    If 4 insta posts are coming in groups of 5, then that implies a 20th. Do we only think Friendly Fire is one because of the "Final Sessions" note? I feel like if there's a second one, it'll be from another era. Probably nothing left to share from Meteora, but we have those HT sessions and I'm sure plenty of MTM. That would give the larger fanbase of their earlier stuff something else to get excited about, since I feel like the average reaction to Friendly Fire will be "cool, but I still don't care for anything after the first 2/3 albums"

    Doesn't really imply anything. The last post could have 4 songs because 19 is an odd number. No matter how you divide it, it's never gonna be the same amount of songs everyday.

     

    Not saying I know for sure it's only gonna be 19 tracks, because I really don't and I do hope people here are right and we'll get two new songs instead of just one. But people should learn how to manage their expectations. As of now, nothing suggests that there are 20 tracks.

  6. 17 minutes ago, NJPLP said:

    It’s either we’ll get another post from the band tomorrow or Monday that will reveal what the 14th track truly is. And since they are doing it in fives, it makes me think there may be 20 tracks.

    Last post could be 4 tracks. Would be great if there's a second previously unreleased song though.

    Guys, it will be a lot of songs that we've known since forever and 1 (or MAYBE more) unreleased song(s). The hype level feels a bit over the top to be honest. Like, with M20 or HT20 we had at least a lot of possibilities. I don't quite get it. But that's ok of course because you all are getting so hyped up. Good for you!

    New Linkin Park music is new Linkin Park music.

    Id love to see What Are You Worth on here too. That song is kind of a banger

    I love the song too, but I don't really see it ever getting an official release. Mike doesn't seem very fond of it and he was really upset about the song leaking and blindly blamed Brian Howes for the leak even though it leaked among a bunch of other Linkin Park material, meaning it clearly came either from Warner or directly from Linkin Park's camp. Releasing What Are You Worth would mean giving Howes money and Mike made it clear he never wants to work with him again.

    To be honest, I don't know. I don't know if we missed a song, or if it's something else.

    I think track 14 is Friendly Fire.

    This Spotify playlist shows the running time for the album will be 61 minutes so far.

    A little more because of the new song. I'm starting to think that will be it, only 19 tracks. Seems to me they moved on to the next phase of the promotional campaign. First phase was revealing the songs by reposting them and the second stage is the tracklist order with the green dots on YouTube and the numbers on Spotify. The third phase will probably be some teasers of the new single next week.

    Or UNO-reverse it. Julien-K with Styles of Beyond rapping verses.

    We seriously need to make this happen.

    Does DBS has some other unreleased tracks or full shows?

    Yes. After Chester passed they said they planned to use the Dead By Sunrise social accounts to post unreleased music. Unfortunately, Julien-K doesn't own any of the music, so they weren't able to do anything with it. Getting this release approved was huge for them. I hope this means more Dead By Sunrise is coming in the future.

    I was away for a few days and saw that new things are happening.
    How could we not follow the chat and messages in this post completely, so will we have a new song and a greatest hits album?

    I never imagined Linkin Park with a "greatest hits" album

    Mike always said he was against a greatest hits album, but he was also against doing anniversary box sets for their albums, so I'm glad the management convinced the band to do all of that. Always great to get new music.

  12. 01. New Divide
    02. Keys To The Kingdom
    03. Lost In The Echo
    04. Rebellion
    05. Castle Of Glass
    06. Blackout
    07. From The Inside
    08. One Step Closer
    09. No More Sorrow
    10. In The End
    11. Across The Line
    12. Waiting For The End
    13. Leave Out All The Rest
    14. Final Masquerade
    15. One More Light
    16. Numb
    17. P5hng Me A*wy
    18. Papercut
    19. More The Victim
    20. Talking To Myself
    21. The Little Things Give You Away
    22. A Line In The Sand
    23. Faint
    24. Bleed It Out

  13. We're at 58 minutes and 17 songs now. Keep in mind a CD has a limit of 80 minutes, so they still have about 20 minutes to fill if this a 1 disc release. 16 minutes if we assume Friendly Fire is somewhere between 3 and 4 minutes long which is the average duration of the songs on One More Light.

    But I mean the M20 campaign with the "BBB tape" thing came out a lot earlier, there's nothing like that right now

    The official accounts are literally sharing videos of Linkin Park's greatest hits right now.

     

    Just now, Subs said:

    I dont hate any LP album tbh, but over the years I just find MTM the most repetitive. Each album is perfect when your in the mood for that particular style, but I just find anything post MTM to be the most exciting, partly because the repetitiveness of earlier albums.

     

    All good albums though

    Personally, I feel like Minutes To Midnight has really good songs, but if you listen to the album as a whole it can get quite boring because of how many slow songs they picked for the album. The outtakes are all spectacular too. Peak alt. rock Linkin Park.

  15. The Hunting Party could have used some better production or direction. This was a band that has always followed trends trying to self-produce something they were not familiar with. The album could have benefited with an outside producer perspective. Still, the result was fucking awesome. Way better than One More Light or Living Things.

    Only BID? what about LITE and COG? It was even weird they made a POWERLESS a single but only international.

    Gold and Platinum as you can see here:

    Saying Living Things didn't have successful singles is either straight up lying or being in denial.

    Among other things, since the last live on Twitch Mike has gone completely silent and has never posted anything again, even and especially after the explosion of the Rumor of the possible Singles Collection. A signal?

    Mike was never one to address rumors. The Twitch stream was the closing of the Already Over promo. It's finally over. There's nothing for him to post about at the moment.

    they even forgot bout RECHARGED. 🥹😂😭 well, back to the Greatest Hits thing, hoping for THP track at least one in the tracklist. Final Masquerade might be in the list.

    5 hours ago, KiddIsAlive said:

    There is no chance that either Final Masquerade or Wastelands (or both) don't end up in the Collection. The former still enjoys occasional radio plays internationally on rock/alternative stations, the latter was the one song from THP they kept in the setlist for the OML Tour (and I'm gonn say that's a shame, to balance the THP hate a bit :P).

    If they include something from The Hunting Party, Until It's Gone would make more sense because it was the biggest single from the album.

     

    4 hours ago, RYG4R said:

    ALTNC will be on the collection, for sure. That single was released because LIVING THINGS singles did not lived up to the hype.

    Burn It Down is literally one of the band's biggest singles ever. It's at 3x Platinum with New Divide and Numb/Encore. The only songs higher than that are In The End, Numb, What I've Done and Bleed It Out.

  17. Ok, so assuming this is just a greatest hits compilation, here is a list of all Linkin Park singles (Numb/Encore not included) with Gold & Platinum certifications. This is considering worldwide certifications, not only US (RIAA) certifications.

     

    Platinum singles:

    Spoiler

    One Step Closer
    Crawling
    In The End
    Faint
    Numb
    Breaking The Habit
    What I've Done
    Bleed It Out
    Shadow Of The Day
    Given Up
    Leave Out All The Rest
    New Divide
    Waiting For The End
    Burn It Down
    Castle Of Glass
    Heavy
    One More Light

     

    Gold singles:

    Spoiler

    Papercut
    Somewhere I Belong
    The Catalyst
    Iridescent
    Lost In The Echo

     

    And here is the list if you consider only US sales:

     

    RIAA: Platinum

    Spoiler

    One Step Closer
    In The End
    Faint
    Numb
    What I've Done
    Bleed It Out
    Shadow Of The Day
    Given Up
    Leave Out All The Rest
    New Divide
    Waiting For The End
    Burn It Down
    Castle Of Glass
    Heavy
    One More Light

     

    RIAA: Gold

    Spoiler

    Crawling
    Papercut
    Somewhere I Belong
    Breaking The Habit
    The Catalyst
    Iridescent
    Lost In The Echo

     

    This should give us a good idea of what's going to be included in The Singles Collection besides the new song.
