Linkin Park is realeasing their new Album on May 15th. They will release one of the songs on April 2nd on Tv and Radio. The Album is called "Minutes to Midnight".
Background Info
This album was produced by Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin. The first single, "What I've Done", is to be released April 2nd 2007.
The album was delayed many times, first scheduled for summer 2006, then fall 2006, then early 2007, and now May 14, 2007. "When songs are pouring out you don't ever want to stop that. We already have over 100 roughs for songs," said Mike Shinoda, "We've narrowed it down since but we're not ready to commit to those yet."
The song from the early demo sessions, "Qwerty", which was rumored to be on Minutes to Midnight, has appeared on the Linkin Park Underground v6.0 CD on December 5, 2006 in both live and studio demo versions. It has been confirmed that "Qwerty" and the other songs on the LPU CD will not appear on the new album.
"This was a year-and-a-half long process of really hard work and experimentation in the studio that yielded about 150 rough songs," guitarist Brad Delson tells Billboard.com. The band recorded 17 tracks and is now whittling down which ones will make the final cut. "Not only is this album incredibly diverse, but the depth of the material is really strong,” Delson says.
What Does 'Minutes to Midnight' Mean?
The title is a reference to the Doomsday Clock, where "Minutes to Midnight" is a measure of the proximity of the world to nuclear destruction. The clock currently stands at 5 minutes to midnight. Mike has explained that the album has various meanings:
"Don't take that at face value. There are layers of meaning, most are metaphoric." and "It’s definitely a reference to the doomsday clock…the Apocalypse…a metaphor for death and rebirth, but it could also be applied to the music industry, sort of tongue-in-cheek."
Possible Track List
* 1. Wake
* 2. Given Up
* 3. Leave Out All The Rest
* 4. Bleed It Out
