TL;DR: thank you for the new era (sorry for the long post)

I've listened to Linkin Park on and off as a child, and growing up from then, but it wasn't until right after Chester's passing where I started to really appreciate the music, and really dug into their discography, in early August I remember playing cards with my mom, and a family friend, she always puts music videos on while we play, and Somewhere I Belong played, I ask what song it was. At this point I only listened to In The End, Crawling, OSC, & Numb (i also heard Breaking The Habit a bit earlier but wouldn't rediscover it until a tad bit later), after we were done i remember listening to it, and just felt so attached, the next morning I decided to do a small tribute to Chester and listened to a few more. What I've Done, New Divide, rediscovering Breaking The Habit, and Burn It Out. I went and watched the music videos as listening to the music and I was immediately hooked to this band unlike I've ever been, and would spend my entire freshman year discovering their studio albums, and even learning about Hybrid Theory, & Xero

But having that journey so late meant I never got to experience the feeling of new music dropping, I never participated in a new release aside from the 20th anniversaries, but those mainly were just scouring on the band's website, with merch releases & new unreleased music (don't get me wrong, i still absolutely loved them, HT20's boxset was my very first musical purchase, and the start of physical collecting for me)

I remember the hype going around when the band was cooking up something for an event (the comeback show) I was unfortunately working so I couldn't actually watch it aside from like 10 minutes of it on a break, and with that I heard The Emptiness Machine, and felt so much joy hearing the band was back, new music releasing, a new era starting. I ended up pre-ordering the CD boxset & Vinyl that very break i took, it didn't take long at all for Emily & Colin to grow on me. Later on I even found a copy of the TEM single

But I got to do things I never thought I would be able to do. Buying a new Linkin Park album, I went to one of the indie retail listening events for the album that was going on around me with a few friends (even won a t-shirt but not sure why I couldn't find it for this picture shoot), with that same group we went to sonic temple, my first festival and got to watch Linkin Park live for the first time, and later on we went to go see Unshatter

I'm so grateful this band is back and out doing all of this after so long, and I cannot wait for the next album to release, and what's in store for it

I've been recommended this song a few times, and I just want to know your thoughts on whether this is similar to LINKIN PARK or I'm just insane.

Discussion A question that was already done here before, but a little deeper

7 Upvotes

There are a few posts here that ask for the actual Vocal Range of Chester Bennington, and mostly say something between G2-D5 and some falsetto notes, don't understand much about it. Only things i can do is identify a few notes from hearing and remember the order of the Piano Notes, simple things.

But, does anyone know Chester's live vocal range? I'm pretty sure he does much higher notes from what i've seen, maybe Falsetto but still valuable to know!

Here goes an example of Given Up - Amnévile 2008 Bridge Scream! He would oftenly do that higher scream rupture during live performances of Given Up

So happy this one came after two weeks from USA. Ordered it right after I watched the movie.

As someone who waited for days back in the times of dial up to download then-fresh Live in Texas from P2P, this one has a special meaning for me (Live at Milton Keyes was something else but also good) not only because I got to see them last year in Europe, but because it showes their regained strength for live performance, even in the older songs.

I like the jade design as well, cool choice.

Discussion Does anyone else also hear this

0 Upvotes

I recently heard From Zero for the first time. I love the album.

But in the song “Up From The Bottom” I keep hearing “staring up from the butthole”. I think there’s like 2 places where I hear bottom but everything else is just butthole.

Maybe it’s because English is my second language. Either way, please send help, please save me from the butthole.

Discussion What's a song that you always skipped, but found later in your life?

28 Upvotes

Hey there everyone. I was a teenager when LP was at their peak it early 2000s. I played hybrid and meteora day and night, but I always skipped this one song or if I did listen to it I didn't pay any attention or it didn't sound as good as the rest. Forgotten. Now I'm in my late 30s and I can't but seriously think that this is their best song. Is it just that it seems "new" to me, but still has that old LP vibe or why do I find this song all of a sudden playing in my head all the time? And to top it all I think the name of the song is quite fitting. Forgotten. Glad I found you again in new light and mind!
