What do you think Linkin Parks new album will be like..

I'm still a bit new to these forums, so sorry if this has already been asked, or posted somewhere else. But what does everyone think?


I like their new stuff, but I'm hoping they'll bring their old style back.

 

Hopefully nothing like Hybrid Theory, Meteora and Minutes To Midnight.

 

IDK, whatever they churn out is always awesome.
I could go for a couple more big, epic long songs though.

 

I doubt they'll go back to their old style. I just hope they'll have way more Electronic elements and more epic long songs as Harlz said.

Less ballads, 3 maximum (quality ballads). More screaming, although i'm not sure that'll happen.

I don't care all that much for more rapping but if there were to be rapping i prefer the old linkin park raps than Hands Held High/Fort Minor raps.

Oh and more solos please.

Well that's what i hope the new album will be like, not what i think it'll be. It's way to hard to know what it'll sound like, after minutes to midnight.

 

That's one of the good things about them though.

They could do anything.

 

I think something like Minutes To Midnght with a theme, and a little bit harder.

 

Hopefully it will be a little bit more focused, instead of them trying a load of different things again. I mean it's great to be eclectic but it'd probably be better to concentrate a little bit more on one area, instead of being decent at a load of different things without really being outstanding at a few of them.

 

I like the rawness/live sound that they had from Minutes to Midnight. One of the things that I didn't like about Meteora was Chesters voice was overlapped so many times that it doesn't really sound like what he sounds like. I would like to see more of the kind of rapping Mike has done recently, it's really really good. More screaming, more solo's, the works. And oh, Hahn's turntable action from the first two albums needs to return. That's one big thing that was missing from Minutes to Midnight.

 

I think it will be more like M2M with some HT elements such as more scratching and such. I also think it will actually have more rapping but not Nu Metal rap like Bleed it out but more of the Rap of some of the unofficial-b-side/demo rap/rock that Linkin Park did. It's going down, we made it, dedicated etc. I think it will be that kind of rap because it's unlike fort minor and it was never really on a previous LP album. I also think there will be more solos are more of mike on tracks be that singing, or keyboard. I hope they do a duet song though that would be kick ass. *end that rant*

 

I think that with MTM, they were finding some new ground, and hopefully they've found something stabble now to work on. Personally, I'd hope for something a bit heavier, with fewer ballads (but with quality ballads like In Pieces). I really hope to see more electronic stuff in their music because in regards to MTM, Joe seems pretty obsolete and I want him to do some scratching and synthesizing hopefully.

The good thing about MTM was that the songs had a lot of range so it all sounded unique so I hope they keep that feel.

 

A Joe instrumental would be good.

 

Im want it to expand on the harder songs on MTM and go from there.I want less songs slower songs.I want mikes rapping to come back,want Joe to scratch alot more, and Chester screaming more often...Not really the HT sound but in expansion of the harder songs of MTM

 

i think or would want at least, the new album to be an expansion off the sound of songs like "in pieces" or "valentines day" except including rapping in some way. lp is the only band of its kind in my honest opinion. and if there is any band that can really pull off a truly unique sound, it really is them. I feel as though alot of their unique style was lost in m2m, and i think they can create some really cool mixes in between the two styles of music they've now created.

 

4 songs - Rap Rock
3 songs - Nu Metal and Alternative Metal
2 songs - Alternative Rock
2 songs - Ballads
And last - Mr. Hahn special

 

I want more heavy songs and fewer slower songs. The one thing I want to see more than anything is a song that shows Brad's skills as a guitarist.

 

Meh, MTM grew on me loads, (as I hated it at first).

Personally, I'd like to see them try new things, but not lose touch of who they are as a band, that's all...

 

I personally told Mike to put the hip-hop back in the next album, but he kind of just laughed. So basically, every song is gonna sound like "Leave Out All the Rest" and "Shadow of the Day"... just being as pessimistic as possible so I can be pleasantly surprised

 

Take the elements from "Shadow of the Day", "Bleed it Out", "Hands Held High", and "The Little Things Give You Away" and use those throughout the next album.

Those four songs are the best on an excellent disc.

 

More songs like their old ones, particularly songs like Papercut, Numb and From the Inside. I wouldn't want a whole album completely Shadow of the Day-ish and no Mike to be heard anywhere (except of course, playing the guitar).

Oh, and old logo back, please :/
