Not what I was expecting, other than the fact that it's definitely another step in the wrong direction.

I am not impressed.

Medal of Honor, seriously? Anyway, the song sounded kinda gay. Piano sounds like something off of The Fragile.

fucking vocoder

hey look! it got worse!

''Not what I was expecting, other than the fact that it's definitely another step in the wrong direction.''

Im not sure if they're even taking steps here, they are just jumping away from the right direction right now.

i was secretly hoping that they'd go back to their nu-metal ways. guess not.

What the heck was that?

Stinkin' Narkz.

I kinda liked that, thought it fit the trailer well.

They've gotten even worse what a shocker

lolololololol

Thinking LP will go back to nu-metal is silly. They've stated several times now they arn't. Move on from that and don't expect anything close to it, and you'll be able to judge this in a more fair light.

*sings "WHAT IIIII'VE DOOOOOOOOOOONE" over the piano at the beginning*

Judged it in a new light, still sucks

piano was alright i guess. still pretty much sucks a hard one.

MoH is gonna be so ridiculously bad

Couldn't even sit through teaser. God awful.

uggggghhhhhhhh

gonna suck as hard as LP's new record

Another video game/song premier? What's going on.

But regarding the actual song, it does not sound too great.

shit shit shit shit

The 12 year-old inside of me is not happy right now.

lol @ the vocoder. So apparently Linkin Park thinks they are Mogwai now?

lol have linkin park finally gone R&B

they should do a song with black eyed peas

Drums were good but sounded like they were in the wrong song.

Little audio clip wasn't utter shit, but it doesn't really raise any of my interest for their next album.

Mmmmmm Medal Of Honor is going to be awesome.

Finally a game that wont suck, such as MW2

Not THAT bad, but the vocals sounded even more pussyish than normal.

It's still shit. If LP ever hopes to regain at least some dignity, they will return to their roots and progress that. Instead of this garbage.

hybrid theory 3.0 aint gonna happen guys

^ Im starting to truly beleive that now. My inner 12 year-old self is sooo sad

I want to like this, but nah. Shitty.

Wow.
Pretty ghey.

Idk, wasn't really expecting much, but I didn't hate that

dude

It's funny that at this point people are actually DISAPPOINTED that they're not Nu-Metal anymore

Here seems to be the full version of the song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VxSyOdpA-4&NR=1

nothing special though...

Apparently it is a remix:

"Linkin Park The Catalyst remix done by Strobelight Beats"

that was utter shit. I will still see about the rest of the album but i think LP have lost it.

Boring as hell.

I'm glad I'm at work so I don't have sound...

is that Chester AND Mike singing? lol wtf

I didn't think it was possible for any band who started off relatively well with a strong fanbase to stray so far from their roots in such a catastrophic way.

Congratulations LP, you've just proved it really is.

I knew every word from every song of Hybrid theory by hart. It was my soundtrack to high school. I am not supprised that this is shit but still it gives me a chance to rant about the disgrace LP has become. WTF?

song was amazin 5/5

So, was I the only one who had heard this song ages ago through the fan remix contest?

Yeah, not a fan of new Linkin Park stuff. I pretend they broke up after Meteora.

Nah, I think we've all heard it previously.

I think it's more the fact that we all just jumped at the chance to again express our angst at the pathetic mess this band has become...

"Yeah, not a fan of new Linkin Park stuff. I pretend they broke up after Meteora"

I think we all were starting to think that 3 years after Meteora and still no word on a new album, and now, I think we are all wishing that had of been the case.

lol im not even gonna listen to it

Well, they've had a few good new style songs. I think "Given Up" is cool if you can get past how different it is and just want an angry song, and "Valentine's Day" is a pretty cool ballad. So I'm not sure I wish they'd broke up, but it really is disappointing. I'll always remember Hybrid Theory playing over and over, or the day I excitedly bought Meteora and gushed about it as I played it in my mom's car. *sigh*

A dissatisfied 11 yr old inside of me
That was a fucking disgrace

Is it wrong that I clicked on this article just to watch the moh trailer, and not hear new lp? Nah

yea this pretty much sounded like complete horse shit

sounds like will.i.am joined the group...

who cares what they release anymore, i'll never be 13 again and hybrid theory gives me all the nostalgia kick i need

Hopefully this puts COD MW2 to shame. Kind of like Bad Company 2 did. That game is infinitely better than Modern Warfare 2 in nearly every possible way, but everyone's still playing COD. I just don't get it.

that was close to horrible.. and they are totally not nu metal anymore so I dont get the "12 years old" thingy..

generic

fuck....that was terrible.

Song was painfully mediocre. But exactly what i expected after their last album. Medal of Honor looks pretty good though imo.

If it is a remix, hard to say if that even helps

I don't understand the hate for this song. Sure, it's bad, but it's just another Linkin Park song.

Medal of Honor looks badass.

Anything that moves away from rock-rap can't be bad, considering the direction.

Honestly, hybrid theory was their worst album. They've gotten progressively better (more tolerable) unless you're a little angsty kid.

I want a Hybrid Theory pt2.

you mean pt. 3. Meteora was pt. 2.

"Here seems to be the full version of the song:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2VxSyOdpA-4&NR=1"


for some reason, i didn't find the beginning of the song to be all that bad..untillllll 1:23, and from that point i just could not listen any further

will someone please tell those assholes to stop making music

for some reason, i didn't find the beginning of the song to be all that bad..untillllll 1:23, and from that point i just could not listen any further

That's a remix from the contest they had, not the actual song.

Shit.

Song wasn't all that bad as long as you're not expecting LP to return to roots.

I had high hopes as the song name, while unoriginal, is pretty brutal.

THEN WE GET THIS KIND OF SHIT.

*sings "WHAT IIIII'VE DOOOOOOOOOOONE" over the piano at the beginning*

same

Looks like a real return to form though, for medal of honour, it's about time those guys sorted their act out.

Song wasn't all that bad as long as you're not expecting LP to return to roots.

I know a lot of people wanted this to happen, but I highly doubt ANYONE was expecting them to go to their roots. That said, even if this was the debut single of some random band it'd still be pretty bad man.

that isnt the full version too btw.. the song is 5 minutes 42 seconds long.. the comments actually say "Music is Linkin Park The Catalyst remix done by Strobelight Beats"

edit: oh well, it has been mentioned already

I don't understand why they still have so many members, surely a couple of them are just redundant now?

...like the bassist

If the version that's been posted in this topic so far is just a remix, and if the sample i found is of the REAL song...

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsRQQR6GHAE

...Then i think i like the remix better. I actually think i PREFER this style over the Hybrid Theory one. Granted, EVERYTHING they make sounds like complete shit either way, but i think i'd rather listen to this than anything off their first 2 albums at this point..... i'd probably kill myself afterward, but still.

Why is it the fan bases for modern first person shooter have the shittiest taste in music? Song was atrocious, what the fuck was up with the vocoder?

On a completely seperate note, Medal of Honor looks fantastic

cool kids on mtv use vocoder so we should too

Leave out all the rest was the only good thing out of the last album.

cool kids on mtv use vocoder so we should too

You know your bands gone to shit when people prefer your nu-metal years..

Goddammit. Where is Hybrid Theory 3.0??

Not happening

bloc. you dont know that. maybe when they're 45 they'll make Hybrid Theory III: Remember Who You Are

Don't get me excited for nothing Count

i like when LP tease me i get so wet

only time will tell.

it dries me out.

^lol, i like dat one.

mtm pissed me off. but i just said fuck it and fapped to megan fox in transformers

why keira knightly?

she okay

im not a hater cuzza tee tiny bewbies. but she lookes like a 12 yr old boy

im talkin bout kiera knightley dude.

really? looked like natalie portman


haha, and then it was gone.

Is a teaser even newsworthy?

Keira's the pirate-hoe. Natalie shaved her......head in V for Vendetta.

Both are instant boners.

Linkin park will have some heavy tracks and those still might stand out

Eh, I'm more of a Jennifer Love Hewitt type of guy

these guys do the same chords every fucking song

i think they just can't come up with riffs anymore... they just need a decent guitarist to be honest.

naw im pretty sure its a collective suck
no need to pin it on just one band member

There is a serious lack of guitars on the last album, i'm sure it was a collective decision and a deliberate one too... i guess i would just fight to do what i do best if i was a guitarist in this band that's all... they just didn't wanna be labeled, all this shit just not to be labeled.
