A few months ago in an interview with LP Association and AltWire, Mike Shinoda described how the current state of rock music left him wanting something more, saying: "I’m just saying there’s something missing. I guess it doesn’t have to be “rock,” but I’m at a loss for something else I’d call it. I’m looking for ferocity, innovation, and energy without giving up songwriting, sophistication, and craftsmanship." The interview managed to generate great debate and excitement within the Linkin Park community, and left many wondering just how the band intended to breathe life back into a genre that they felt had lost its identity and intensity. Well, Linkin Park fans, it appears Mike and the rest of his band mates have found what they were looking for, and it comes in the form of their daring, aggressive and, dare we say, carnivorous brand new single, “Guilty All The Same”.

From its blistering two-minute intro to its squealing outro, the single hits you like a hurricane from the very first second and does not let up. "GATS" does not feature the electronic elements that had been found in some of the band's most recent material, but instead offers something louder, rawer and nastier than we have ever heard from Linkin Park. It also features a surprise appearance from hip-hop legend Rakim, marking the first time a guest vocalist has appeared on one of the band's studio releases. It's new, it's exciting, it's challenging, and it's refreshing at a time when rock music has arguably lost some of its edge.

Below are the OFFICIAL lyrics to the song: GUILTY ALL THE SAME Tell us all again What you think we should be What the answers are What it is we can't see Tell us all again How to do what you say How to fall in line How there's no other way But oh / We all know YOU'RE GUILTY ALL THE SAME TOO SICK TO BE ASHAMED YOU WANT TO POINT YOUR FINGER BUT THERE'S NO ONE ELSE TO BLAME YOU'RE GUILTY ALL THE SAME Show us all again That our hands are unclean That we're unprepared That you have what we need Show us all again 'Cause we cannot be saved 'Cause the end is near Now there's no other way And oh / You will know YOU'RE GUILTY ALL THE SAME TOO SICK TO BE ASHAMED YOU WANT TO POINT YOUR FINGER BUT THERE'S NO ONE ELSE TO BLAME YOU'RE GUILTY ALL THE SAME GUILTY ALL THE SAME Can y'all explain What kind of land is this When a man has plans of being rich But the bosses plans are wealthy Dirty money scheme A clean split is nonsense It's insane Even corporate hands is filthy They talk team and take the paper route All they think about is bank accounts Assets and realty At anybody’s expense No shame with a clear conscience No regrets and guilt free They claim that ain't the way that they built me The smoke screen before the flame Knowin’ as soon as the dough or the deal peak They say it's time for things to change Rearrange like good product rebuilt cheap Anything if it's more to gain Drained, manipulated like artists, it's real deep Until no more remains But I'm still me Like authentic hip-hop and rock Til’ pop and radio and record companies killed me Try to force me to stray and obey And got the gall to say how real can real be You feel me, we'll see That green could be to blame Or greedy for the fame TV or a name The media, the game To me you're all the same You're guilty
Shazam any LP song and you should be presented with this: [thumb]http://www.lpassociation.com/upload/images/030514-205517_IMG_2122.PNG[/thumb]
This song is absolutely amazing. The beginning had me worried about the guitar part (like the short clip we had before) but that riff it went into was fucking great. Damn. And that Rakim verse is sick.
IF IT IS NOT WORKING FOR YOU: Try using Shazam to tag Castle of Glass. We don't think it should be song specific, but it is not working for every LP song just yet. It is working for COG
I NEED THIS. NAO. Damn it, why can't Shazam make this work for Nokia? I have the freaking updated app and it just does nothing after tagging a LP song.
