That was the shit.

Waiting for the End

This fucking song has grown on me and I'm starting to enjoy it. Gah.

I don't hate it because it's different, I hate it because it's bad.

Thread winner.

LOL. Trust me, I have never once complained about this album or song. I have defended the living shit out of both of them. But this honestly sounds like Mike just messing around with Pro Tools. It's disconnected, very repetitive, and sounds like the majority of the remixes that were made for it. THAT SAID, this is just a edited version of it. Hopefully a VERY edited version of it. The ending is insanely epic, I love that. I still have high hopes for the full song.

Ladies and gentlemen, you have your new Linkin Park.

From the LPA: You can check out an article with Linkin Park, conducted by Mexican online magazine The Informant. They talk about ATS and how they want the fans to experience it amongst other things, check out the translation below: LOS ANGELES (31/JUL/2010) .- The Californian band Linkin Park celebrates the tenth anniversary of their recording career with the launch in September "A Thousand Suns", their most experimental album to date of the ambassadors of rapcore . The theme "The Catalyst" will serve as an advance of the expected work of the group and will debut on radio stations around the world starting August 2. "We are planning to do something different, using different instruments. I think our last album (Minutes to Midnight, 2007) was the beginning of this exploration of new sounds and with it even more challenging ourselves to do things out of what we used to" said drummer Rob Bourdon. That experiment resulted in a compact product that combines the lyrical and the "hard", which is still being mixed for release on 14 September. "Achieving our goal" said Bourdon satisfied, he invited Linkin Park fans to "pay attention to the album from beginning to end". "It takes you on a journey in which some songs are related to each other, complement each other. They have greater impact when you hear them all together" said the drummer who, like his colleagues, knows that its evolution may not be the appealed to all fans. "We try not to worry about what other people think when we make songs because it is not productive" said lead singer Chester Bennington for a decade after he published his successful "Hybrid Theory" (2000), the group has matured. "The music we make now is the result of trying to put pressure on ourselves to do something unique. I hope not, let us dream the same band as we were (when we started) because that is specifically what we did not want to happen throughout our career" said Bennington. The creators of songs like "Somewhere I Belong", "Crawling" and "In the End" reinvent justified their obsession for the sake of training and otherwise "would be boring" and motivate them to continue making music, said Bourdon . "Thousand Suns' will be the fourth studio album by Linkin Park after" Hybrid Theory (2000) Meteora (2003) and Minutes to Midnight (2007) and the second place with the supervision of producer Rick Rubin specialist reap record hits with artists like Johnny Cash or groups like Public Enemy, AC / DC or U2. "It took a couple of years," said Bennington, who explained that the album will take approximately 40 minutes. "One of the great things about working Rubin is that we set ourselves a deadline for completing the disc. It (the process) as long as it lasts. You have to let things flow. It is a fun and painless, what happens that takes time" "explained the singer. This open approach led the group to leave it to the fans the last piece that completes the puzzle of "Thousand Suns." Through his MySpace page, Linkin Park invited its fans to make their own version of the single "The Catalyst" on the basis of some clues provided by them include the plan they like on the new album, a proposal that found it exciting but risky. "Terrified, as if you're a painter and tell someone who can paint a corner of your canvas. Surely you think will look bad or not will be consistent with the rest of the picture," said Bennington, but optimistic. "It is unwise to think that we will find something that will satisfy everyone, but people's response has been overwhelming. It may be that we have as good a hard material that is at the end choose the best among all the good things." Linkin Park will begin its world tour on October 7 with a concert in Buenos Aires, which will be followed by performances in Santiago de Chile (October 9) and Sao Paulo (11 October), before heading to Europe where in principle is expected to pass through Spain. "Our goal is to get more music more often. We would be ready to return to the studio in September, but we also want to tour. We're going to spend the rest of our career trying to find a balance between being in the studio and on the road" confessed Bennington.

Berlin 2007, no contest.

Love this video. Awesome experience for that guy.

I find the whole thing with Ms. Crazy Pants and Alex ten times more interesting than anything else in this thread.

Breaking the Habit

Not at all. Meteora is 36.5 minutes long. Hybrid Theory is 37.7 minutes long, & Minutes to Midnight is 43.3 minutes long.

Longest album the band has written to date. No complaints here.

From LPA: Mike was in the LP Chat just now and gave some minor details regarding ATS. He confirmed that ATS will be 45-50 minutes in length, reiterating "rapping on new album = yes", as well as going on to say that ATS contains "some of the best beats I've / We've ever made, too".

It would pretty much depend on how many tracks on ATS are instrumentals and how rough the songs are for Chester.

Minutes to Midnight came out over three years ago. Get over it.

Need to hear this damn song already, lol.

Because they have a new album coming out? And you haven't even listened to the new album yet so you can't really say it's been disappointing.

Could definitely see this happening. It's been done before. Play the entire album; encore with older songs. Done.

Better than nothing.

Damn. Sorry, everyone. They WILL be playing a few clips today though, so you can always tune in for that.

Everyone, just keep checking this: http://www.timeanddate.com/worldclock/city.html?n=220
