JZLP-NaughtyNottingham

Fuck yeah I can watch Shinoda talking all day about LP

Im having a blast what a fucking day

After the all these years can't believe that im still a hardcore LP fan.

Now that everything is out I want to thank @martinez for giving us the info of the full tracklist you were always accurate and  that's probably one of your best moments in this forum that i will always remember, thanks so much man!

I was wondering if you could tell us your experience of the day that you found out about this? 

im not sure if you can tell me how you found it, if its not possible im just fine if you tell us your experience from that day.

I had really low expectations for the video because of the way that it was created 

But holy shit they knocked it out of the park 

Really great video i felt an instant connection ❤️❤️❤️

Just heard the song im blown away ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

-Meteora era Chester was his prime, fucking badass voice

-Are you guys crazy? This song has the Meteora DNA in every second Mike's rapping, power chords, scratching, synths, drumming

-It doesn't sound like any other song very different from Numb and ETR. Based on your comments I thought that it would sound like a mix of both songs but it isn't 

-Mike's parts weren't re recorded it is old school Shinoda

-The new mix is awesome I love that the bass sounds great and the power chords are loud

-I fucking love it but it still the #4 ballad of the Meteora sessions it isn't better than Numb, ETR or BTH

A little late on this topic, but it's definitely disappointing to see that Mike's bringing the web3 shit to Linkin Park material. I would have much rather had a music video that was fully done by, you know, real people, or even just a She Couldn't-style video with photos from the era spruced up a little. Not to mention the main character of the video, according to this article, is from an "NFT-driven web series" done by the production company, so on top of everything else, including interspersing AI-affected footage of Chester from Live in Texas (weird!), this video is an ad for an NFT peddler! Gross.

 

I can at least appreciate that Mike has a genuine interest in cutting-edge technology and how it intersects with art, but I really do not like that we're at the point of using AI-generated material to promote LP directly. That's all I've got on that.

 

Mike had to find a way to connect NFTs w LP

This time I'm not angry because we will be getting a new official video and it will help to promote the song.

I don't expect much from the video but it's better than slides.

I love SFN. I never understood what makes people think it's one of their worst songs ever. The lyrics are inspired and Mike and Chester both give good vocal performances on that song.

SFN has Chester's worst -rap- performance ever. 

I love the style of singing-rapping that he uses when he sings with Mike the last part of Easier To Run

I fucking love Easier, Mike's flow is so good and i dont remember any other song that he sounds like that, Chester's perfomance its so powerful

Yeah, for sure. Too many soft songs, and I know as an angsty teenager wanted the heavier shit 😀 but tbh I didnt like the live version of Nobodys listening, I prefer the album one 😀 what a polarizing song

Still better than good goodbye haha and its yo i want to be migos flow.

Yeah its a really weird song but i still listen to it once in a while.

I find it inferior to ETR honestly, but it's treally similar 

Easier To Run its on my personal top 5 LP songs of all time

how dare you? haha

I like the original Meteora tracklist. HTF is one of my warm up go to songs when I play the guitar. And I love the wierdness of Nobodyd Listening, its so cool. I think this one could replace Easier To Run or even Session tbh.

Nobody's is one of those songs that sounded better when they did it live.

I still havent heard Lost but -lost- to Easier To Run, BTH and Numb they probably thought that having 4 soft songs on a nu metal album was a bad idea.

This thread should be called

LINKIN PARK PLANNING GOING ALL OUT FOR METEORA 20

One of? This is THE best fan site out there.

I was talking about fan bases in general.

In the LP universe there's no competition.

that's true. question: will they record the Q&A? i mean like in case any of us couldnt attend the q&a

Dude you are on LPL, one of the best fan sites ever of course they will take care of getting every piece of info in that chat.

Probably they want to use discord to create a 2003 LPU chat experience, there are better options but this is better than nothing!

cant wait for the new info that we will get

Any OG to confirm this? Lost being used as promo?

Fake.

Blackout versions missing:

BLACK OUT FIFA 11: 

• Censored.
• Different mix.
• At the end of the song, Mike sings "We've been waiting to collect the things you know" twice instead of changing the second line to "We've been waiting to collect what you've let go".

BLACKOUT A Thousand Suns (AU Album Advance)

• On September 3, 2010, the Australian website The Music Network posted a review of A Thousand Suns, according to which "Blackout" had the same lyrics as the LPTV episode "Blackout" Freestyle.
• While this version of the song has never surfaced to the public, it is important noting that it exists and it is out there.

They need a guy that can sing the hits, Mike can't do that.

^ Kind of reminds me of She Couldn't in that regard where it's a sound that feels like it could have come out of a different era of the band.

I strongly disagree 

This sounds a lot like PMA, Easier To Run and Numb.

True. I wonder what the first verse will be like. Supposedly, the lyrics "I've carried this weight for too long... Disassociated, unappreciated. And everything I've hated, keeping me so jaded. I look into the mirror, and I hate what I see. All my lifes disfuction, alive in front of me" that were shown in Art of Meteora documentary that Chester scribbled are lyrics to "Lost", according to me and @AJ93. I was wondering these lyrics are a part of the first verse. I guess we'll find out that, the second verse and the bridge on Friday.

kinda sound like rap lyrics.

Maybe he does some backing vocals during the verses. You can hear him whisper "Can't break free" when Chester sings "And I'll never break away" in both snippets. 

It's still the Meteora era, it would be surprising if he raps in the bridge

Somewhat amazed they’re actually leading with Lost.

Glad, for sure, but amazed. Would have thought a less Chester-centric song would be the bait, an LPU Demo for the hook and then bam, box set released.

We don't even know if Mike has a part

I'm glad that this song was shelved for 20 years, it makes it even more special! 

It's easy to tell why this song didnt make the cut, they already had 3 *ballads* ETR, BTH and Numb.

I'm glad that Easier To Run made it to the album because it's my favorite Meteora and easiyly part of my top 5.

Perhaps it's two different tracks. I believe the 2002 mix is one with the chorus thoughts that take away my pride and this one is a more "recent" one 

A different mix doesn't mean that it's an alternative version.

The thoughts that take... I think that part might be the bridge because it sounds very intense.

What if Resolution it's the 2002 mix of Lost?

I'm starting to hate this thing.

There's better ways to create hype.

I think it would be really cool if it had its own anniversary release. Nothing major, just a digital album with the 8-bit versions so fans have access to them through official chanels.

digital versions would be fine but its one those things that most people dont give a shit.

question: does 8-Bit Rebellion count as Minutes To Midnight or A Thousand Suns?

I dont think that anything from 8 bit Rebellion will make it to a boxset, dont even count that haha.
