    Not gonna listen until the official release on Friday. I like the polarizing reactions to it I'm seeing!

    Exactly my thoughts. If they're really gonna go with this approach, why release the album in May? Everything will be spoiled by then. Tbh, I'm not entirely sure if it's a good thing, or bad.

    Also, is this supposed to be the second single or is it gonna get the LGM treatment? :think:

    Heavy is WAYYYY BETTER!
    I don't like this! :(
    Where are the strings?
    Where's Mike?
    Where's Brad?

    Shit, i've never thought that i could sound like the HATERZZ, but this is NOT GOOD.
    I really hope the rest of the album don't sound like this PLEASE. :timothy:

    I'm guessing it's the LGM treatment. Doubt this is a full single.

    I was able to resist temptation on not listening any snippets back then during ATS. So it will be the same here for OML as well. I'll reserve judgement until the full album is officially released.

    I just heard the full song.
    I absolutely adore this. <3 The vibe, the lyrics, and the production. Really beautiful.
    Very comparable to Coldplay's "Army of One".

    I love how they're changing things up. Always wanted a song like this from them.

    I agree that this should have been the lead single haha. Way more interesting than Heavy.

    Even the By Myself raw version LPlive has posted a few days ago is way better than this overproduced thing. I'm feeling nauseated.

    Just picture all those flowers crown tumblr hipsters starting to like LP right now, saying they are all time fans and love the band.

    My heart hurts.

    I'll try to not complain anymore, but damn.

    I remember when Mike said they're mainstream but not Katy Perry mainstream, well guess what, they are now :D

    Don't hate on the lyrics people. He uses the word Fuse for the first time since...Fuse. We all love Xero so this is alright.

    I actually loved the melody and Chester's vocals in this.
    Yeah, it's as pop as the band can get but I really love the vibe of the song.
    Battle Symphony>Heavy for me

    :hahn:

    Dude. Chill. It's just a song.
    People are reacting as tho their lives depended on these songs and were betrayed by LP.

    I'm sure this song is dope but I think expectations are just high. For good reason though. We know the band is talented as fuck. The two recent Xero demos, Chester's lyrics in STP, etc. We know they have so much potential and it seems LP is in a lyrical stagnance since ATS. We know LP can do some phenomenal shit if they wanted to but they seem satisfied doing songs that we know they can make in their sleep.

    Linkin Pop? Hmm, hard to describe. Summer vibes. Chester's vocal performance is amazing, and again different/fresh. It sounds more like a true LP song without Kiiara and with an intro. Mike's presence can be heard through the music; you can just hear him having fun layering in those vocal background snippets/effects.
