    This album is fucking great until The Messenger. That song makes me wanna barf.

    Other than that though, I absolutely adore this album.

    This album was a big dissapointment for me :S i feel all sad now ... but Requiem and When they come for me are ACE ... just hope the next one is less experiment and more actual melodies , the melodies here bring Chester down and his voice is too epic to be wasted like that
    PS: This is my point of view pls dont think im a hater or somthin im a fan since 2001...

    So, I've decided to listen to the leak and frankly, I don't know how to feel about this album. Sometimes, I think it's really weak, and other times there are really great moments. The way they started the album is really stunning, but some songs didn't really grab me.

    Some of LP's best songs are on here (imo) like: "When They Come for Me", "Blackout", "Waiting for the End", "The Catalyst"

    I think I had some really weird expectations for this album, and that's my fault. The scale of "The Catalyst" was so amazing, and it sounded really big, then a lot of the songs on ATS sounded pretty flat. But I'm going to give this album a lot more listens, before I form my full opinion. This is a lot to take in. *For the record, I really wanted to like this album a lot, so don't automatically assume this impression is overly negative.

    BTW, I do think that Mike is singing in Japanese on "Jornada del Muerto". The first time I heard it, I was like "Wait a sec, that sounds like Japanese". Lol.

    Yes, as I said earlier, it is Japanese.

    Seriously, just think about how many genres they played with in this album. It boggles my mind.

    I thought Burning in the Skies was a weak way to start the full length songs. I think it should have been The Catalyst.

    This really is something else. Easily my favourite album by them, absolutely hammers M2M in terms of quality. Favourite tracks so far are all the Interludes (Surprisingly), Blackout, Iridescent (such good vocals from Mike, I didn't think it was him singing on first listen) and Messenger. Chester sings the hell out of it and it's such a fitting end. 10/10

    Yeah, it was crazy. The only genre I can think of is experimental or... Linkin Park. :lol:

    Generic Rock doesn't do this justice.

    So after three listens, I can give an opinion to the album. All songs but The Messenger seem to be working more or less as a whole. The Messenger is great song but somehow I don't feel it belonging to the album, well at least not as a last track. My favorites so far are: Blackout, Burning In The Skies, Waiting for the End and Iridescent, but others don't lack quality much less :D Anyway great work

    And the most impressive thing about the whole thing is that they all mesh seamlessly. This is what I've been wanting from LP for a long time. And now they've finally delivered.

    I keep changing my mind on what my favourite songs are on this, there's just not a bad moment throughout the entire journey.
