    I love Figure.09 as well. There's just SO much energy in it, plus it has great riffs. One of the best from Meteora by far, and it has definitely aged well for me since I first heard it.

    Same here. First song I heard by LP was What I've Done at the end of the first Transformers. I was a casual fan for 5 years til Living Things came out and changed my life...then I bought all their studio albums. Listened to literally nothing but Linkin Park (on my iPod that is; I obviously listened to other music on the radio :bradwink:) until 2014 when I added 30STM to my vast list of artists on my iPod/Phone (read: 3 artists, 2 excluding my own band :lol:)

    I also used to dislike The Little Things Give You Away cause I thought it was "boring"; then I started playing guitar and realized how much of a fucking loser I was for not appreciating the solo

    I constantly underestimate Roads Untraveled. Nothing wrong with that song. It's just great from beginning to end.

    Nothing wrong with the whole second half of that album, matter of fact.

    All in all I like Skin To Bone, but I think it misses some kind of twist, it's a bit boring. I always thought about an extended part with a kind of happier or bittersweet mood.

    I prefer this song over LOATR, which is along with SOTD my 2 least favorite songs on MTM.

    It took me a really long time to really grasp how big a shift "Minutes To Midnight" represented for the band, but a song like "Chance Of Rain very clearly illustrates just how far from "Meteora" they were willing to venture in their experimentation.

    This demo is extremely far-removed from 2003 nu-metal, more so than anything that actually made the cut for "Midnight", IMO, and people's heads would have exploded hearing this from Linkin Park after "Meteora". Even I would've been truly shocked if I had heard this song on "Midnight" - even though, like so many fans, I liked that album immediately without any issue. It's clearer to me now just how big a gamble the third album's direction was for Linkin Park's career, and how that must have felt for the band members.

    Just listened to ATS for the first time in a few months... Gosh that's such a good album. If LP can nail the lyrics like they did on that album LP7 will be fantastic regardless of the genre. I'm super pumped.

    P.S. - You know, the Red Square concert is one of my favorite LP concerts ever.

    I feel the same, I do with Voices/COR was kept though, because of that. LOATR has a lot of elements and characteristics you wouldn't hear on Meteora, but it still kinda has that powerchord rock ballad feel (I realize it's mostly keyboard/strings but still). Same with the end of Valentine's Day. Chance of rain feels whole-heatedly different and would have added some cool variety.
