"The Catalyst" Music Video

The music video I directed for "The Catalyst" premieres tonight on MTV.com and VH1.com at midnight, EST. When coming up with the idea for the video, I thought of the end of the world. After you have a chance to watch it, let me know what you think. I'm anxious to hear your thoughts.

Hey guys!
I loved your new video! Linkin park is my favourite band and is amazing how you don't have afraid to try new things, and, in my view, this point, is what make linkin park so special, you are excelent in what you do and you can still try new ideas, and improve what you are! Linkin park is the band that you can listening all albuns without say "hmmm, this music... i really don't like it!" because all of linkin park's music are excelent, all different and all unique! I'm completely "in love" for lp for a long time, I continue listening others bands but even if i want to change my "favourite band" i can't because there isn't other band like linkin park, and when i saw the video i understand why linkin park is what it is, i still interested in linkin Park, even after i find every thing about you, and even after i listening 10000000 times all of your musics!
I'm a portuguese girl so sorry if I have a lot of mistakes in my text!
Continue with the excelent work, and continue surprised all the fans that you have around the world!
Ps: when linkin park came to Portugal for a own concert? i will love to have the oportunity to met you, i talk to you about the band and albuns and stuffs like that! (i play piano, and i'm bassist like phoenix, i'm a art student, and mike, your painting, are, a lot of times, my biggest inspiration!) x)
Thank you guys for the good time that you give me when i'm reading about you, listening your musics, see your concerts or even make drawing of your band ;)
Nice work! =)

ummm....i mean its ok, but its not something i could listen too everyday,i think its coming close to OneRepublics style and you shouldnt do that cause only they can do it, but hey thats just my opinion and i cant decide what you guys want to make. LOVE YA LINKiN PARK, i would love to here another album similar ,but of course new, too hybrid theory and meterora.
well i will look forward to the other songs on the album, but still good job

The video totally rocks Joe! My eyes are still sore from being unable to blink or glance away from t.v, scared of missing a moment. I give it 100%, 5 stars, two thumbs up. It's so intense and energetic, you guys give it your all which is amazing to watch.
So to summarise, yeh I like. :D
