It's definitely an interesting album, and certainly creative. The Catalyst is definitely one of the weaker tracks.

I think Linkin Park may be a little too obsessed with revolutions and fight the power and shit. From The Inside video is about a riot, Shadow of the Day video is about a riot, their live DVD is called Road to Revolution and they even made AN ENTIRE ABLUM OUT OF THAT (This last one), not to mention the Catalyst video is also about a riot.

The new album is about their animosity towards their record company.

Grabbed a copy of A Thousand Suns last week. Though it's not the old alternative/nu metal sound from their Hybrid Theory/Meteora days (yeah, I want their sound back), but it is good as an industrial rock album. I'm impressed so far with tracks like Blackout and Wretches and Kings.

As I've been posting in the thread specifically about the new album, I absolutely love it. Easily the most creative, experimental and mature thing they've done. I'm not going to repeat myself but check out that thread for my more detailed comments.

Forget what I said earlier.  While as a whole I still enjoy some HT and Meteora songs much more than certain songs on ATS, this album is much more of a pleasure to listen to as a whole than any of its predecessors.

Been listening to Reanimation a bit recently. The remix of With You is definately one of the highlights of the album imo.

After a crapload of listens, I came to the conclusion that I love the new album. I loved it at first, but it's grown on me even more. I love the way they changed, the rap metal style would've gotten old by now. The end of Waiting For The End is one of the best things they've ever done imo. And I don't get the hate for The Catalyst here, that song is awesome.

The Catalyst is a very good song, though it's not one of my favourites on the album.

Waiting for the End, on the other hand, is friggin' amazing.

It's hard for me to *hate* any songs on the new album.  The only one I tend to not like is Iridescent.  However the album is so brilliant, because it's not a singles album; it's a single, cohesive piece, much like DSotM.

Yeah, I gotta say I like the album a lot! Very creative, very diverse, and it HAS to be listened front to back which makes it even better.

I actually liked the direction of Minutes to Midnight and hoped they would move in that direction, however I also like the sound they had on Hybrid Theory. I like LP but can only listen to an album here and there.

Funny, that's one of my favourites. Lovely piano chords and nice melodies.

Personally my ranking is as follows:

1. When They Come For Me
2. Waiting for the End
3. Blackout
4. Burning in the Skies
5. Wretches and Kings
6. Robot Boy
7. The Catalyst
8. The Messenger
9. Iridescent

Also as a corollary, the first two interludes and Fallout are awesome.  Fallout especially does a lot to make this album flow.

Waiting for (In) the End: Linkin Park delivers a little late their submission for the South Africa 2010 World Cup Anthem Contest.
But seriously, it's a good song. Poppy, but good. Probably an upcoming single.

Well...yeah.  Linkin Park announced it would be the next single before the album came out, like end of August/early September.

So Linkin Park has unofficially announced their fifth album in Kerrang!, which they've been working on for about two months.  They say it'll be released soon, but I'd expect a late 2012/early 2013 release.

If they keep in the direction that they went with A Thousands Suns, it should be good!!

JUST STAY AWAY FROM MINUTES TO MIDNIGHT LP!!! STAY THE FUCK AWAY!!!

I think it might be different from A Thousand Suns cause of all the Meteora/Hybrid Theory fanbois bitching about how they should return to their old sound...

Actually not:

https://www.nme.com/news/linkin-park/57334

And even so I don't think they would.  The whole point to Linkin Park is defying a label, and a little-known piece of history about the band is that at one time Meteora sounded not at all unlike how MtM would turn out.  Unfortunately Warner Bros. told them they couldn't do that and they had to start over from scratch (which is part of why they had their lawsuit with the label a couple of years later).

Well hello necro.

Anyway, just thought you'd all like to know they're releasing their first single off the new album on the 16th. It's called Burn it Down.

Ooooooh, I wonder what direction they're going to take on the new album. I still love A Thousand Suns.

Although I won't be judging too much on the single, as I think the first single from ATS is one of the weaker songs on the album.
