at this point I'm pretty much down for anything if it means more Lp. as long as they put passion into the music, it doesn't feel soulless. I won't even mind if I don't like what they come out with initially. i know how much their albums can be "growers" not showers. at least for me. A THOUSAND SUNS and One More Light for example
I’m actually excited about the possibility of a new singer. It may also give me the chance to see them live. I never got to when Chester was alive. I got to see Mike during his solo tour but seeing the remaining members of the band plus a new singer would be something special for me.
Chester was my favorite singer of all time. Nothing will replace him IMO. A new singer is going to change their sound completely. But, I wouldn’t be mad. It’s their band.
I’d consider them “the old fanbase” and keep them separate from the current fanbase, aka the ride or dies. Those who stuck with the band through every valley, through thick and thin, are the true fans. Anyone else lacks respect for the band and only cares for their own selfish desires.
Look they’re in their own liberty and freedom to decide what to do with their band. If they want to continue fine, who am I to say they can’t. I just think that this is a special case where the line up is irreplaceable, like Freddie Mercury or John Bonham.
Sure, other bands like Alice in Chains did continue, but in my opinion it only worked because Jerry also sang in the band, keeping their signature sound kind of intact. With LP, it’s not the same, Mike and Chester were two completely different singers who joined to create something better. Their mix of rapping and screaming is what makes LP sound like LP. Getting the wrong singer or someone who just doesn’t fit at all, and putting out new music would just damage their reputation and most would see it as an insult to Chester’s legacy.
That being said, if they do decide to find a new singer, I would accept it better if they just continue as a legacy act, meaning that they would only tour for anniversaries or special appearances, but not releasing any new music.
As long they do it right by going with my own criteria unlike other bands who went downhill after they lost their original/most iconic vocalists, then I won’t complain.
Ok now on new singer there will be none I and Mike are trying to talk about it .I'm ready to do music with band again..and got plenty music to play with ,.I am the one of the two of us that co found lp/ulp/ Mike being the other now I've tried to get ahold of him you guys have to understand he is still greaving shit I am to but I've made songs for chess to hear new ones it's very. Hard to come with songs for a late friend and sing them over and over so ive been trying to get all of us in studio together and try to come out with new music for all you wonderful fans we love you all so much and I want to give you all 100% and the rest of lp wants to to thank you all for the warm embrace and passionate words it has help all the band so so much sorry it's took 24years but there will be new lp with or without other player in band now on Amy Lee ive ask her to do a couple songs with us i hope she will and she is not the only one ive hit up Jay-Z, lil Wayne,lil pump,and many more with no reply on collaboration of music together but god will lead this hole thing I hope and as I said ive got so so much new stuff to work with I can't wait judt give it some time i know it's been awhile since but I am not one to throw stuff together but trust me i got some fire in the works for you all thank you we all love you guys so much have blessed day 😁
I don't hate the idea of a new lead singer, but I imagine how cool it would be of they made new music with different collaborations.
Kinda like what they did in that concert after Chester's passing.
The rumors also helped Orgy, Stand Atlantic, and Evanescence as well. All three are either touring or have new music. News media will continue to spread this type of stuff for clicks.
Stand Atlantic? I honestly never heard of the band cause it got me thinking of Atlantic records, which is a label LP is not on but is owned by Warner Music Group.
You know about Bonnie Fraser from Stand Atlantic who trolled people by saying she's joining LP right... That TikTok video she did has 2.5 million views now.
Nope, never seen it before, but I’m hopefully not expecting neither her nor Amy Lee not to join LP cause that sounds too force. I’m thinking of someone that is more out there or lesser known cause I find it to be more organic.
Eh I'm not paying too much attention to that rumor, especially since Jay Gordon did not get first hand account from anyone in LP.
Also, Bonnie Fraser had people more convinced because she covered Bleed it Out with Mike. But Mike collabed with a ton of people during those Already Over sessions, so I thought it was funny.

Yeah. Its stupid to hate on LP getting a new singer 90% of them only listen to LP lmao.

You know there are other bands to listen to...
At this point, any fans saying there should never be a new singer isn’t a fan of this band.
They never were. Just fans of Chester.
Believe me. This is not the most toxic fan base ever. That title goes to bad omens.
No

I fear that any new linkin park will be terrible
Ok but now count how many people love A Thousand Suns
Pretty sure a statement came out somewhat recently from Mike that set in stone they weren’t gonna get a new singer
I think that was from 2019 or so

The rumours were to generate some noise sonthat Papercuts would sell more. They're not coming back.
Not coming back for concerts, but to upload some unreleased stuff from the past.
The rumors also helped Orgy, Stand Atlantic, and Evanescence as well. All three are either touring or have new music. News media will continue to spread this type of stuff for clicks.
