JZLP-Benningstrong

Read his book The label was trying to get in the way of the bands image, music, style, trying to get rid of Mike and Jeff was in the middle of that and he kinda listened to the label and tried to do the things that they wanted, they let him work with them again for Meteora basically Mike said to Jeff "no bullshit this time" the album got insanely successful but the relationship was already fractured and they decided that they didn't want to work w him ever again. They have the right to be angry at him he did stuff that hurt their relationship but its undeniable that he was very very important for the band he was like the only guy who believed in them. Probably without his involvement linkin park wouldn't exist. Who knows? Would be cool if they reunite and make amends, seems unlikely.. If thst didn't happen when C passed away its unlikely that it will happen now.

minute of that comment? i need to watch it lol

No problem im still not sure if Lpl ever posted an update about this i cant find the show page lol The video it's really cool, nice angles.

I found the ProShot randomly today I never watched this video before and I couldn't find a link on LPL so fuck it sorry if it was already posted, Mike and Chester start at 1hr 30 min

Not ironic for me it was like a natural move.. FZ atleast for me it sounds like THP on steroids and with a mix of the sounds from every era it doesnt sound like HT or Meteora. Most of the bands always go back to their roots and for LP it was kinda obvious that they were going to try that after a 7 years hiatus.

Not having a long break after the end of THP touring cycle. The band needed atleast 3 years out Rob and Brad were getting injuries from playing, now we know that Brad was mentally exhausted from touring and Chester needed time off to fix his personal issues. Finishing that tour and recording a new album ASAP was a mistake.

It kinda worked atleast people were clapping during the performance lol In between it one of those songs that should have workes as an interlude, there were too many great songs like across the line or blackbirds that were left out because somehow in between got more votes from the band members.

As a soccer fan this is big news fucking fantastic what a comeback. Hopefully they go all out and make a statement with heavy ass songs. 15 minutes set I'm fucking ready.

would be great if they use the Lost piano version and make it something like My Immortal by Evanescence.

The girl that ran a website that stored tons of photos from getti was ana i don't know if someone can track her.

The band knows thats Good Things it's a fan favorite pretty sure that it will become a single. Would be great if they had the video ready just before the first show from 2025 and play it live ASAP. what a dream.

Oh yeah that's one of my favorite songs ever top 5 for sure... They didn't like it because the lyrics were dramatic but they have other songs that are very similar. Good Things its pretty fucking dramatic lol but it's so good.

Retire (Because they don’t sound good with the new lineup) 👋Breaking the habit (It's Chester's trademark song no one sounds good in it also the key pitch or whatever they changed made it lost its impact 👋Somewhere I Belong 👋Given Up (Emily struggles a lot, she already has other screaming moments in which she sounds awesome like Crown) Realistic wish list 🧡Roads Untraveled 🧡Lost (Album version) 🧡Good Things Go 🧡Shadow of the day Miracle list ✨️QWERTY ✨️A Line In The Sand ✨️More The Victim ✨️Forgotten

So according to this... Chester was actually a member of Xero for a brief and uknown time! I was under the impression that he joined when the band was nameless or already were Hybrid Theory.

Why is everything so heavy ?

listen to 0:30

The Emptiness

Its just the worst piece of gonorrhea.

I wonder if Good Things will beat Emptiness.

Its probably my #3 track because it has all the weird elements that i love from the band. Mike's and Emily's vocals are so unique. It's cool because sounds like Lift Off vs ATS.

STAAAAAAIIIIINDDDDDDIIIIDDDD

This is actually true. Mike and Brad are obsessed with perfection pretty sure that if Alex had atleast one thing that Mike didn't like he wouldn't be part of this massive comeback. Alex its doing great for sure the sound of the band will never be the same.. Its like if we criticize Colin for playing the song in his own style, or Emily for being herself and not doing stuff like a Chester clone. Alex it's mentored by Brad, he's a very chill guy pretty sure that he let him have some freedom on the way he plays. Im so grateful for the bands comeback, a price had to be paid and I'm extremely happy that the band is back and even stronger than ever.
