    I'd trust my friends over anything of material value any day.

    Which actually means I'd have to move ATS over to the 'Everything Else' category.

    So you're saying Friends > ATS > Breathing > Sight > Everything else.

    What, I don't even. :FUUUUUU:

    But in all seriousness, you are correct.

    Exactly! I slept on it and it's still bothering me. After all the puzzles and binary my mind doesn't wanna let it go. but it seems unlikely now that people have confirmed each zip has completely different modified dates. Just makes you wonder what the hell their computers were doing while ripping and packing these files.

    "A Thousand Suns," for me was worth the wait. Not that I was happy waiting for three years, but the hard work that the band put into it, to me really pays off. When I first heard the album, I broke down in a wave of emotions, happy, moved, beyond excited, grateful. I listened the album several times at this point, both through my computer and then on my way to work through my IPod headphones with a new perspective on the layered sounds. I love the whole album, I legitimately am having a tough time picking one favorite song, unlike the other albums where I liked every song, but instantly knew my personal standout, I love all of them on this record for so many different reasons.
    This album resonates with me the way Hybrid Theory did ten years ago. I am so happy and moved that the band isn't the complete same as they were ten years ago. My fourteen year old self appreciated Hybrid Theory and was spellbound by it the way my twenty-four year old self is by ATS. I know that I am dedicated to LP for their sound, their vision, and their passion, and I would have bought the album no matter what, but I know that I wouldn't been able to encourage the other people in my life who haven't been exposed to lp with it if I didn't feel passionate about this record. The sounds connect to me and the vocals blew me away (which has always been my favorite aspect of LP). The lyrics are so emotive and evolved, and congruent. I feel proud to be an LP fan still, and when I'm in my later twenties and their next record ( I hope) is out, I truly hope they will move and inspire me again. I am lucky and grateful that LP has been a constant in my life for a decade and I hope for a many decades more.
    Thank you LP for everything you do.

    Yeah I figured itunes rating would be low. It gives all the people who love nu-metal,rock, and just the sound from HT and Meterora a place to tear this new album up. A lot of people will never understand the work LP put into this album and the beautiful music they created.

    Wow I am very disappointed by the reviews so far on iTunes.... People are entitled to their opinions and that's cool but the reasons for not liking it seem to only be based on them not sounding like hybrid theory. All the comments about terrible lyrics and garbage music are pissing me off! Lol These people just don't get it they must just listen to music for the sound and not the message. A Thousand Suns in my opinion is a masterpiece and I didn't expect everyone to agree with that but some of these reviews are written out of spite and just aren't logical at all!

    Hope y'all are enjoying ATS! Gets better after each listen.

    On a side note, I was watching District 9 the other day and about half way through the film I noticed something awesome*....the scene I was watching was just before the guy went into that burger joint to try buy some food. Anyway, it cut to a 'security camera' shot and I noticed at the top of the screen the word MEADOWLANDS!

    Coinincidence or does LP like District 9 ?!?!?!


    *Awesome may be a slightly over the top
