Mike posted this on mikeshinoda.com: POSTED BY STELIOS (about ROAD TO REVOLUTION DVD/CD) "The rest of the stuff will be made available to you, though...you'll see!" oh mike, please tell me that you dont mean that the rest of the live songs will be on the lpu8 cd! no more live songs! M: No, the leftover live songs won't be the new LPU CD. We heard your comments about the last LPU CD needing to have more unique material, so we're trying to do that. I think this year's LPU CD will be one of the best ever. At the very least, it'll be the most unique. Here's what it won't be: live tracks, new unreleased Linkin Park album music. (insert frantic guessing game here). I Honestly have no idea wut its gunna be now?? maybe remixes of songs?? no clue.. can u guess??
I think its great, that they are actually listening to our comments and opinions on what we want. Now if they do that in regard to the platinum membership idea as well that would be really good.
This is why I love LP, they actually listen to their fans. I wonder if it'll be remixes that they give us this year since Mike has ruled out unreleased material.
Or remixes of demos. Or demos of remixes. Or a remix of a remix demo. "I remixed a remix... it was back to normal!" - Mitch Hedberg
Speaking of which, I have it on good knowledge that it's in fact a recording of Rob's little known stand-up routine.
thank god no live material hmm kind of hoping it would have been unrealeased songs but ehh if they are remixes that would be so dope
Sigh, on the one hand, I love that it won't be new live tracks. But my whole motive for that was to get new unreleased material. So I really don't know how to feel about this. I guess I'd take remixes, though.
he said no unreleased ALBUM music...... making me think they recorded stuff JUST for the LPU or that it's Remixes. Speaking of remixes, wasn't there a remix contest a while back? if i'm not mistaken and there really was, what if it was a remix or fan made CD containing their favorite fan mixes/remixes? Anything beyond this point is pure awesome because it's not live tracks.
You mean songs like Sould My Soul to Yo Mama? I would seriously take a full-length Joe Hahn track since we got jipped of one for Minutes to Midnight
yup, I could go on to say songs like Standing In The Middle, Announcement Service Public (even though it's not a big song), A.06, QWERTY.... take your pick. none of them are "unreleased album" songs, but they are almost all full length tracks...... let's hope
Thats excellent news! From Mike himself NO MORE LIVE TRACKS! YAY! XD anyway, Heres what I'm hoping, or what it could be: 1) Instrumental (something on the lines of either A.06/ASP or SMS2YM) 2) Leave out all the rest (Mike's version with different lyrics) - heard on LPTV 3) B-side/demo/remix 4) B-side/demo/remix 5) The little things give you away (Mikes version) - heard on LPTV 6) No roads left I havent got NRL on CD yet, so I'd like to have it on LPU8 , but i guess alot of people would be anoyed about that! But... i've just realized.... What if the CD will STILL be 10 tracks!?? Wouldn't that be awesome? 10 tracks of b-side/demo/remix goodness
I don't know if I remember this correctly but, wasn't there a promise for alternate versions of MTM songs when the album was about to be released? Specifically, songs including Mike rapping verses instead of Chester singing. I assume these would fall under the "unreleased album music" and demos but the speculation brought that memory back. @Minus: too funny! : )
He said it would be UNIQUE so don't expect any demos. I'm expecting an instrumental, mash ups of several linkin park songs similar to Sold ya soul to ya momma, and some remixes of songs from M2M. 1. Instrumental ( like PSA) 2. Mash up of several LP songs. Maybe over beats from different bands or hip hop artists. 3.Reanimation like remix of m2m/meteora song 4.Reanimation like remix of m2m/meteora song 6. Mr Hahn scratching instrumental, maybe over various LP beats or a Cure for the itch like track That's unique. No live tracks, no unreleased "new" music. "new music" can be ANYTHING from the past or present that's completely new material to our ears from LP, so I don't know why people have their hopes up for b sides. There might even be a cover of a song in there as well. All in all it should be something unique and fresh, so i'm satisfied with the news. The new album is probably a year or less away so with the R2R DVD, LPU08 coming, and possible a chester album we should be getting our fix of LP the coming months.
