A quiestion about HTEP

[Luke]

If the EP in hybrid theory EP means extended play,then why did it come out before Hybrid Theory?

[Adam]

Because Hybrid theory was the name of the band before they were called linkin park and an EP is an album that has (I think) 4 - 8 tracks.
It was released first because it was the demo they sent off to record companies to get a record deal and half the songs on Hybrid theory werent even made yet.
That was a pretty crap explanation. sorry.

An EP is generally a shorter CD. It has nothing to do with the "extension" of a CD. There is no such thing.

[Luke]

Oh so your saying that whne they made this album they were still called hybrid theory?

Cool,better than xero :lol:

no, it means Extended Play, but people use the name for a demo cd or a short album or CD.

Okay, this is the short of it, EP is like half an album and LP is a full album. The EP is normally or demo version or sample version of the LP, to give people a taste of it. Although Linkin Park changed it completely, Rappers use the EP to give the people a sample of the next cd. It's also away to make more money if you mass produced both.
