    Eh, I hope this is looped.

    But then again, it could be a repeat of a line of the chorus again and again, sort of what is done at the end of some songs.


    And...






    Is that Mike singing in the background?

    EDIT :: Never mind. On my repeat listen, I guess it's Chester. Shucks.

    Personally I like the cover. Yes I agree its very basic but the whole rockstar feel of it is very nice. Everything from the logo, to the LP logo and the pictures are coming off vintage which is awesome.

    That's because most CDs are manufactured in Europe, especialy Germany. Thus why us Europeans get albums a day earlier.

    Just a little bit of useless info there. :lol:

    I think the single cover is fine to be honest. You can't set high standards for every aspect of LP and the single cover isn't an important aspect at all if you ask me.

    Hell the album cover could be crap for all I care, as long as the music's good then I'm fine with it.

    that's what i'm saying. all i care about is the album artwork, and most of all the music itself.

    Guys, I think LP are going for more of a classic rock feel, which would explain the artwork direction and everything.

    I guess it's just the 'fanart' font of 'Linkin Park' that throws me for a loop.

    Yeah, it is very basic, but for some reason I feel they're trying too hard to put across this whole "vintage" & "rock star" vibe to it, especially with it being a black & white shot. I like it because it has emphasis on Brad, but I'm not really liking the whole theme of the cover.

    I'm more weary about the whole album art being based on photography, and to be honest with you, I think it will be. They've always based their single covers from their album art, always, why would this be different? The promo shot they released was in black & white, this is. They're really trying to put across this vintage, retro feel with their photographs and I'm not really digging it unfortunately.

    Well everyone was asking for major differences in LP. Perhaps you're all finally getting your wish.

    The problem I have with the Classic Rock feel of everything (of course, this isn't me griping or anything, just my personal view) is that if LP is trying to expand past genres and whatnot, why pigeonhole their artwork in the vein of ONE specific genre?
