This is what JZE hears when he's complaining about chipmunks

Crazy that it's been three years already. For me, what really makes an album special is the memories that come with it. I think I can say with certainty that I may have the most memories attached to One More Light than most of my other favorite records. For better and for worse, this record was filled with tragedy, but by the same measure it was also filled with relief. Music has always been my therapy, and this record unlike many others didn't try to hide its pain behind strange metaphors or walls of sound. Every song is a recollection of some painful memory, in which by performing you can feel the band accept that these emotions are a part of them, and instead of reveling in the pain of having experienced them, we should celebrate the fact, because in the end, it makes us who we are. OML has been my 2nd favorite LP record since it came out, and I don't really see that changing any time soon (I guess it all depends on what comes next). But I can say without a doubt that the songs on One More Light really showed me the power of music and the genius of Linkin Park. Be it a forward pop song about life bringing you down at every turn or a heartfelt ballad for lost friends and family, LP wrote these words from the heart, just like they did any record. It may not be for everyone, but I think this record was certainly for me. Lord knows where I would've ended up after 2017 had I not had some of these songs to confide in. Thank you One More Light, and thank you Linkin Park for not being afraid to be vulnerable. Time to blast Sorry For Now in their honor!

I don’t know if you’ve noticed but the world’s kinda on lockdown rn. Pretty sure if anyone’s got anything right now, it’s time to do stuff. i mean, surely YOU had something better to do than type that first useless, unproductive comment. Though i’m pretty sure someone would’ve done it anyway. because we’re a community of people who love to analyze every single detail. sorry if that displeases you 🤓

bro... how is the one thing you are positive towards on this site the shitty cashgrab remix album

The winner of the art contest for the upcoming single 'Open Door' has been announced! The winner is an artist named Guytown, from France. Check out his winning submission: Be sure to check out his artwork on his Instagram page, linked above! With the cover art now ready to go, Mike's next single could be right around the corner!

I actually laughed out loud during the first verse. This is the cheesiest one yet! I don't hate it. Though I wish I could only listen to the bridge and NOT the rest of the song from this point forward

I will never forget these texts "HOLY FUCK A NEW SONG??" "Wait nevermind I think this is what Darker Than Blood is"

Just so everyone's aware... this isn't an April Fool's joke! I thought the same when I saw the news LOL

Been awhile since I tackled one of these... here's a LP return set. 1. The Requiem 2. Wretches and Kings 3. When They Come For Me 4. Numb (Instrumental) 5. Nobody Can Save Me 6. Sorry For Now (Ext. Bridge w/ Drum Solo and/or Verse) OR Invisible (Ext. Bridge w/ Drum Solo and/or Verse) 7. Until It Breaks (Through Chester's Verse, Transition Into...) 8. Waiting For The End (Apaches Intro w/ Until It Breaks, Sing-a-long Outro) 9. Castle Of Glass (Experience Version) 10. Waiting For Tomorrow OR A Light That Never Comes 11. Roads Untraveled 12. The Catalyst 13. Watching As I Fall OR Make It Up As I Go 14. Rebellion 15. Papercut (Full Song; MS Tour Version w/ Vocoder) 16. In The End (Crowd Version) ------------------------------- 17. Cure For The Itch (2021? Remix Version) 18. One Step Closer / Lying From You / Crawling / QWERTY (Instrumental Medley) 19. Lead Single 20. Running From My Shadow 21. Bleed It Out (Ext. Bridge w/ A Place For My Head, Ext. Ending w/ The Messenger) For some of the heavier or challenging-to-sing songs like Faint or WFTE, I'd imagine Mike would sing it in any way he feels most comfortable and rely on the crowd to help him out like in ITE on the Post Traumatic Tour. Knowing LP I'm sure there'll be some creative ways of doing the heavier stuff through medleys or jams (I kinda just slammed a bunch of them together, for the encore, I'm sure if they just jammed the riffs and choruses it'd be a big hit, through in a little QWERTY riff for flair, and it'll be a done deal).

All it takes to bring the nu-metal heads out from the shadows is one Steve Aoki song...

Song is called "Last One To Know" according to Mike!

The boys in Linkin Park certainly know how to tide us over during these trying times in quarantine. Today, we have even more new music coming out! Steve Aoki will share a new song called 'Last One To Know' today at 2:00pm PST featuring both Mike Shinoda and Lights! The song will feature on Aoki's new album, Neon Future IV. The song will be released on April 3. This will be Mike's third collaboration with Aoki, the first being 2013's 'A Light That Never Comes' from RECHARGED, and 2015's 'Darker Than Blood,' which featured on Aoki's album, Neon Future II. Aoki has been pretty deeply connected to the band since 2013, even creating a mashup ('Darker Than The Light That Never Bleeds') and remixing 'One More Light' in honor of Chester. Who's excited for the new song? We'll update this post with the song once it is releasedd.

Crazy how time flies... I remember back when it felt like time would never move again, but here we are. Happy birthday Chester! Hope you're rocking out with the rest of us today.

Mike's been busy creating some new demos in his home studio, sharing progress along the way on Instagram live streams, and today he's shared even more! Mike has uploaded the stems to 'Open Door,' as well as the instrumental, in addition to the 'CoronaVirus Jam' demo he worked on yesterday and this morning. Additionally, you can watch the today's livestream where the song was created on our channel, as well. The 'Open Door' stems (and the rest of these tracks) can be downloaded from this link - are you going to try and give mixing or remixing the song a go? Share your progress with us!

I mean given how long he's been in the game and how short these clips are (and seemingly pretty much a couple of loops on repeat) I wouldn't doubt he could have done these mixes in like 10 minutes
