Mike cleared up the "HT prequel" misconceptions on his twitter account last night https://mobile.twitter.com/mikeshinoda
Nice of Mike to clear that up. Wasn't really expecting anything like a stripped down earlier version of HT myself. It would be a step back for sure. Question for you (native) English- speaking folks: 'How do you see/explain the stellar solo Brad is said to play?' I would like to hear your take on this since I'm Dutch and the only thing I can come up with in my in magination is something like 'floaty/spacey/mellow' but that doesn't fit with the songs further description.
Man. I'm getting a kick out of the "I think I'm going to like this song the most" comments when only 6 songs off of THP have been revealed. Also, we haven't heard 5 of them yet. Like at all. The same thing happened when the LT tracklist came out... People were literally saying "I'm going to love this song" based on the title alone.
Hybrid has had the opportunity to listen to the song called "Guilty All The Same" ahead of the album's June release.
I had the numbers wrong. 5 should have said 6 and 4 should have said 5. Also, GATS was what I had in mind, for those wondering!
As soon as tracklists were available I imediately made a username for something else CastleOfGlass and I didn't regret it after the songs came out, then again that was after all of the magazine reviews.
I don't think stellar means anything beyond "cool" or "great" in this context. Could be a really complex explosive solo, or it could just sound really nice, who knows.
I respect Mike's opinion about how he think bands these days are pop but its not like these bands have a choice, right? its not like they have Linkin Park's power and fame to do what they want.
Am I the only person who didn't expect an audio preview? The title isn't misleading in the slightest.
I'm sorry if I'm off-topic but I would really love an instrumental song in The Hunting Party, something like this : https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ex2OZTTNeeM
I dont think we will get snippets for a while. Although one could hope! I hope Until Its Gone gets released soon. Since its already mixed and mastered I have a feeling it will be the other song released before the album, since they did say we would hear another song before the album come out "Early Preview" sounds to me like a snippet is available. Preview alone sounds like music it to be expected.
^^I like to think around mid-May is when we'll start getting snippets but who knows it could earlier. plus Until its Gone does seem to make sense for the second single since it is the only one other than GATS that is mixed and mastered. while at it, Until its Gone seems like it could be a Transformer 4. the description of the song being a mid tempo song would fit with the tone of the movie more than a heavy metal song, IMO
I think we'll get Until It's Gone in the last week of April or the first full week of May. /baseless speculation
