    Linkin Park have uploaded a radio edited version of their new single, The Catalyst to their You Tube page. Mike talks a little bit about it on his blog. Check it out below.

    "Here’s a fun little quickie video some of our peeps made. Someone on our team (thanks Nate) put it up on the official YouTube channel so you guys had a version with lyrics out there. In case it isn’t obvious, this isn’t the official video for the song, ha! That’s being overseen by Joe Hahn, and will be coming soon…"

    Well, this clip would be nice OFFICIAL VIDEO. I'd be enough to add some clips of band playing and exchange static photos with short videos... But then... It'd remind of WID.
    Oh, well. Photos in it are great.

    It's interesting to note that Linkin Park seem to be covering all territories with this video, they are taking social promotion through the roof. They are aware that some people would want to listen to the song with the lyrics on youtube, so what do they do? Make a video with lyrics. They're doing a really great job of promoting this single on all avenues.

    It would only have been productive if you wrote the news post. Unfortunately not. :p :lol:

    The sad thing is, I didn't find out through Mike's blog. I just visit youtube often enough that I saw the video get posted before he posted about it.

    Productive? Psssh. Yeah right. :lol:

    Wow, the radio edit is hardly different. The only thing that sucks is how they removed the amazing intro and tiny bit of the outro. I really liked those parts

    Yeah, it's a shame radio edits have to exist, I can't really feel this song unless it is played in full.

    At least it wasn't heavily edited...Most of the song still sounded the same and I could hardly notice the difference. The intro though, that's what always brought me into the song.

    I'm still confused by the structure (of full and radio edit) ... definitely gonna make a remix of it at some point so I can enjoy the awesome ideas they've put into the song.

    Radio edits are done for time constraints.

    Every though there is still a drastic difference between them, did anyone else get a Tool/NIN feel from this vid? I did.

    If you're going to go into every single thread stating that Linkin Park is dead, you should just stop right now. You're not contributing to discussion and you've already quite clearly stated your opinion in the thread for The Catalyst. If you want to pine over the days of HT and Meteora, the album subforums are right below the News and Linkin Park Chat section. Otherwise, you have no need to be posting here.

    Let me clarify some more: I'm perfectly fine with you stating your opinion on the song. That's not wrong. That's your opinion and you're entitled to it. However, judgment on the song should probably be in the thread for The Catalyst.

    Further, you're not giving anyone a basis to debate on whether or not Linkin Park is dead. You're not adding anything meaningful to this discussion at all.

    Yeah, what Minus said pretty much. It's cool you think Linkin Park are dead and all, but going into random threads and saying R.I.P Linkin Park is the most irrelevant & un-constructive statement ever.
