I don't remember exactly how i got to know about the album. But i remember the day when i first saw it in stores. Suprise it came out so fast without even seeing anything on TV about it.
One: no promotion. Two (possibly. in my opinion): Fans thinking "WHY DID CHESTER LEAVE LP?!?"/"DID LINKIN PARK BREAK UP?!?!?"/"CHESTER GO BACK TO LP!" as evidenced by YouTube comments. It was a shame too; "Fire", "Crawl Back In", "Too Late", "Give Me Your Name"...heck every song was good to me, but the four I mentioned were my favorites.
Youtube comments show that people with very low IQ's have access to the computer...that's kind of scary.
