Mike Digs Deep (In His Pockets) To Delight

Thats pretty sweet, like said. I doubt any other artist or many other big artists would do that.

 

I appreciate and respect what he is doing a ton. He is doing something huge for the fans and I'm glad I got to see them live. It was an incredible show and it was worth a lot more than the $20 face value for a ticket. This shows what kind of a person he really is.

 

the comments on that site made me sad

but i love Mikes dedication

 

Yea i hear ya, those remarks were pretty harsh. Like Linkin Park Do not deserve that kinda put down, especially Mike who has done wat he can to keep his fans interested....



GOOD ON YA MIKE!!!!

 

I remember I wasted a double IPT lesson once searching for Linkin park news on Blabbermouth and reading the comments. It was quite a hilarious 100 minutes.

 

meh....its ok cause death metal is garbage to me........

I dont know how people can get off to a guy who cant sing and to guys that drown their guitars in disortion....any way good for Mike....I appreciate his dedication

 

I could rip that to shreds and go on about how boring and conventional and bland LP's music is, but I've done it so many times, it's just not worth it anymore.

Anyways, I love Blabbermouth even more, even if they're all elitist assholes. But I'll be damned if they aren't funny.

"MIKE DOESN'T DESERVE THIS..


..BUT SERIUSLY FUK DEATH METAL"

 

poor mike. if only ppl actually bought the cd instead of downloading it. This project is really good too bad no one knows it exists. Either way, props to mike for continuing to give us LP/FM fans great music

 

if u think LP's music is boring and bland y are u apart of theeir forums i dont see any sense in that.

 

Good on Mike for doing this! Seriously, know any other artists that do this? Not too many, especially since he's coming to Australia! It really shows his commitment, not like so many other artists who take their fans money and never give back. I know he can afford it, and he wont go broke becuase of it but its just a nice thing to do.

And I have noticed a trend in death metal fans to pay out anything and everything.

 

I said "to me"

meaning opinion.....so whatever....I didnt know not having an opionion was a requirement of these boards.....but hey this is the LPA where anybody with a tag under there name can say all they want.....

I have never heard a good argument for why Death metal should be considered music....yeah LP cant play guitar...their music is repetative...chester can sound whiny....and their lyrics are lame....but at least they can follow basic music theory and their music is approachable and catchy. Oops Im having an opinion again.....better give me a warning

" Linkin Park stops world hunger and has donated all their money to hospitals in India"

"Thier shitty music is so shitty that it taste like shitty balls....they are Shitty and they suck
FUCK SHITTIN PARK"

Wow blabbermouth makes a great argument

 

LP lyrics arn't effin lame and I heard that scandanavian death metal bands set fire to historic churches and the members of the same band stabed each other for wearing a white sweater.

 

I once wrote a poem in second grade.

I want to heal
I want to feel
Like I'm close to something real
Then I slipped on a banana peel

LP pretty much stole that from me. Not to mention it's a childish rhyme anyways.

Their lyrics are bland and generic, especially in Meteora.

 

Respect Mike hope he doesn't lose to much money though

 

ok, meteora, but not HT.

 

Meteora aside...

All HTEP songs
In The End (Demo)
Esaul
Papercut
Runaway
By Myself
In The End
Forgotten
A Place For My Head
P5hng Me A*wy
Dedicated
Its Going Down
Rock and Roll (if they wrote the lyrics, which is a good bet they did)

are (to me) perfectly written songs... Granted when you single off LP's lyrics they dont really have much depth.. but the great strength that makes their songs so good is the universal relation to their listeners and their own experiences in life... How does that differ from other bands? well their sound and style sends their lyrics to a new level and that mixed with Chesters unique voice takes those simple lyrics and churns out an emotionally riddled verse or chorus... take this line "ive felt this way before, so insecure" yeah reads 'bland and generic' but LP has a way of delivering it so well that (to me) it gets you really into that deep reflective state of mind...

As a writer I agree that LP could have done alot more with the lyrics for Meteora but none the less i am really content with it.. especially with Numb, From the Inside, Faint and.. yes... SIB (that song helped me out of a rough patch).. LP has alot of potential to write amazing lyics and maybe they will come out in their new album for those who dont like them

 

I once again derailed the thread to some dumb argument...god damn me

 

good on mike
