    In continuing with our dedication to serving the fans, LPAssociation has acquired the rights to two tracks from the String Quartet's latest tribute, a powerful rendition of Linkin Park's Meteora. The album, which was recently released through Vitamin Records, displays the ever-expanding creativity and boldness of the quartet as they tackle Linkin Park's sophomore effort.

    The first track, an interpretation of 'Session', shows the group's ability to match the original track's gloomy, foreboding feel. The second release, a performance of the Linkin Park powerhouse 'Numb', will be available next week, as to help regulate traffic. Be sure to grab the song quick, as it will be gone in a matter of days.

    Session is no longer available; Please purchase the CD to hear the song in full or visit the link below for a clip.

    Pick up a copy of this stellar album, in stores now!
    Thanks to Jon at Vitamin Records!

    "Save target as..." is not working for me. I keep getting an error message. Is it working for you?

    Edit: Works now, thanks. :)

    Rather interesting, I like it. :)

    edit: Just a note, they have 3 more samples off the album on their site. I have to say, their version of Numb is amazing, hurry up a release the full version, Omar. :p

    You'll get it in due time, but since we're hosting this off our own server, we have to be extra careful about bandwidth.

    Is vitamin records the ones who keep releasing these godawful tribute albums that have that dumbass southern guy singing all the lyrics wrong? I really hope not.

    Edit. Nope, they're the ones who release the GOOD tribute albums. The String Quartet 1 and this one as well as the Dub Tribute. Support these guys, they do good work.

    TheKen doesn't remix, he covers. And we all knew about him way before you did, so stop trying.

    You can't say that stuff sucks... you think it's so bad, let's hear YOU rewrite a Linkin Park song into a String Quartet piece.
