So now the Brazilians can stop asking when LP are Joeing to play in Brazil.

'I've done all the stupid cliches of a rock star, "says lead singer in an interview with Globo

RIO - The Brazilian fans of Linkin Park need to thank the football Neymar and company reached the tour in October. Bassist Dave Farrell announced in social networks that the number of shows to promote the release of fifth album, "Living things" in Brazil depend on the amount of goals scored by the selection canary in a friendly against the United States. The match, which took place on May 30, ended with our victory 4-1. And the American band - who have been to Brazil twice (2005 and 2010) but never performed outside of Sao Paulo - it shows in the state capital (day 7), in Rio de Janeiro (March 8 at Citibank Hall), Curitiba (day 10) and Porto Alegre (day 11). See above clip 'Burn it down'.
- That is true. There will be four shows because of Brazil's four goals in the game. We are passionate about football. It's amazing how the sport is not for the mainstream. And yet, Brazil is still the best team in the world - says Chester Bennington, the main voice of the band, in an interview with Globo by phone. - On this tour we go to many places that we could not go before, as the Rio Sometimes it makes sense financially and logistically to perform in all the places where we go.
The new album was made thinking of the fans who discovered the band still in the early 2000s, when the clip "Crawling", the successful debut album "Hybrid Theory" (2000), passed repeatedly on MTV and YouTube did not dream exist. The idea is to win back the fans who got lost along the way because of the previous album, "A Thousand Suns" (2010), which caused the estrangement pop sound and the lyrics to exclusively political nature.
- "Living things" is a journey into the past that got us where we are. The fans that follow us from the beginning asked about the essence of the band. It is a dilemma launch new albums. If you follow the line that that was successful, people say it's more of it and borbardeiam. But if you try to innovate and follow other paths, is criticized because the style has changed. We knew it would be risky to release an album so different from what we had done, but was the result of our time back then - he says.
Bennington confirms the concern to please former followers, who have consecrated elements bringing the band, as featured synthesizer, accelerated the beat and his voice at full throttle. But it ensures that the group, which also includes drummer Rob Bourdon, guitarist Brad Delson, Joe Hahn in the sampler and multi-instrumentalist Mike Shinoda, sought an outcome that would satisfy most of all.
- We have reached a point where they do what they want. Punk rock mixed with rap and hip-hop to metal, as fans and the record company wanted, but without giving up our will. The album is just our way - the singer says, explaining how controversial issues, a political romantic and mingle in the lyrics. - We do not ignore the politics. When I speak of heartbreak and insecurity, is not necessarily about disaffection. I may be speaking of the sadness I feel when I read the political news or the imminence of a nuclear war, for example. The interpretation depends on how people identify with it. I'm at a stage of searching for meaning to things. And I think many people go through it.
If the new album is a return to the past, this will be reflected in the tour. Hits of the first albums are guaranteed in the repertoire of presentations, which should last about two hours, according to the band leader.
- There are some songs that we can not stop playing. Hardly anyone will leave a show without hearing our "In the end," "Numb," "Crawling" and "Faint", for example. And we're happy to see the audience happy. Of course there are those that we have not so fond of playing as "Runaway," but the fans love. I do not understand why, because I think that bad music today - confesses, laughing.
They are rockstars, with more than 50 million records sold, sold-out shows around the world and a legion of fans. But Linkin Park is a group that dribbles the industry gossip and scandals cancels the curriculum.
- I've done all the stupid cliches of a rock star, how I stop drinking, using drugs and hanging out with several women. But we do not base our career in scandals. When you live in Los Angeles, like me, you know exactly where to go to attract paparazzi, and we avoid these places.
In addition to striving to meet the world for music fans, the boys from Linkin Park wants to be an example of good conduct.
- My aggressive way of singing makes some people think I'm just off stage too. I am married, faithful to my wife and I try to focus on things that have utility as my career and raising my six children. Moreover, many fans have children and adolescents. The example we want to pass is the best. We are good kids - Bennington ends.
