i dont think it sounds edmish if that's even a word, its close to sound like that, but i can hear linkin park in it, i won't say im glad it's just a song to promote their game, and I know their new album wont even sound like that, im curious about more songs they are working on with some dj's. I dont know if i like it or not yet, lets wait for the full version
Why are people dissing Mike's rapping? Maybe the song wasn't meant to have an aggressive style of rap to it.
Where is all the criticism coming from? This is definitely a collaboration between two artists, hence it not sounding exactly like LP, and Mike is plenty energetic and aggressive. This is quite a bit more rhythmic rapping than we usually hear from him, but I fail to see where all the complaints are coming from. And don't get me started on the "Wish it was back to HT/M with guitars" stuff. Aren't we done with that 12 years later?
back in HT and Meteora songs like in the end and faint had mike rapping with not much intensity. the fact that mikes doing the same thing with ALTNC is just great!! i think people are complaining about the lack of energy because they saw the live version first and impressions of the song changed. on that note, cannot wait for ALTNC
Mike's rapping is BEAST. It makes the song for me. From now on, I'm just going to give an insane amount of praise to anything that LP fans hate on for no reason. Go listen to whatever type of music you want LP to make in your mind, maybe you will be happy then. That is what I think. Lol. Why sit behind a keyboard and talk shit about a band that has sold 50,000,000 albums+ if you don't like the music? So strange.
I know the audio volumes aren't completely even, so I apologize. I'm not a music editor, but I tried my best to put the snippets together as best I could. Hopefully you can enjoy at least a bit. https://soundcloud.com/brandon-roman-lenz/a-light-that-never-comes-edit
You're absolutely welcome to, but Minus kind of already does that for us. Part of his job as resident troll.
Speaking of trolling, this whole NIN inspired thing with everyone using my picture and sig is kind of creepy. Especially since I have no fucking clue why it's being done .
I wouldn't mind a little guitar but when it gets to a point where every song is guitar driven, that shit WOULD get boring and redundant. But What LP has done to their music over the years by adding different styles to their music is why they have still remain my favorite band since 7th grade. bands I grew up listening too along with LP like Papa roach (no offence) have become nothing but a distant memory for me. linkin park's music are fresh. I could listen to Papercut and then listen to WFTE the next and not get tired of their music.
Linkin Park and Papa Roach were my two favorite bands back in the day... Papa Roach are just not releasing music of the same quality that they've used and that's why they're not relevant anymore...
Well I disagree with this. PRoach just getting better and better with every album. And they are on the same road as LP. From Nu-Metal to Alternative Rock. And The Connection is their best album yet.
