NEW ALBUM, “A THOUSAND SUNS,” OUT SEPTEMBER 14

No puzzles or hidden messages with this one. We’re excited to finally announce that our new album, A THOUSAND SUNS, will be released on September 14th.

The lead single for the album is called “The Catalyst.” It will be released on August 2nd.

Beginning tomorrow, July 9th, we’re teaming up with MySpace for “Linkin Park, Featuring You,” a contest which gives you the one-of-a-kind opportunity to be on our new album. We'll be giving you some audio from “The Catalyst,” and you get to take it from there; you can remix the parts, write something over them, or mute stuff and write something totally new. We may choose a remix of the song, and put it on the album…or, we may choose an amazing keyboardist, string quartet, guitarist, percussion group, or other musician, and invite them into the studio to play on one of our songs. No matter what instrument you play, you can win. We're open to anything good. All we ask is that you include any audible portion of any one of our stems in your submission.

Once you submit, the community (that's you) will vote, and the most popular stuff will rise to the top. Then, my bandmates and I will comb through the submissions, choose one winner, and they will be included on our album, A THOUSAND SUNS. Check out http://www.myspace.com/linkinpark for contest details.

I think I've said enough for now. Thanks for your continued support. We’ve got more announcements coming, so keep checking LinkinPark.com for updates.

Comment by Aziz Sheriff on September 11, 2010 at 7:25am: The first song I loaded on my latest Ipod Touch was "The Catalyst" and god thats the best combination. LP are the gods of real music and they always will be. Welcome to India(Hyderabad) Linkin Park..

Comment by Lin Tao on September 11, 2010 at 3:52am: Er...Wating. I wonder if A Thousand Suns would come up in China on Sep 14th.

Comment by Daz G on September 11, 2010 at 2:12am: All you dicks saying "if you dont like the new album your not a real fan!". Kiss my arse! Your the sheep buying this crap. Linkin Park have changed, for the worse. I used to love Linkin Park because they made amazing music. But now, they dont, so I will not be supporting them anymore. If the fans dont tell them the truth, ie this new album is worse than having hot needles poked down your japs eye, the shit they spew out will get worse.

If the sales for this album are bad and LP actually listen to the fans (which I doubt they will) they will have to make something better next time.

PS: I guess all you guys that like it are those contemplating suicide and slicing your arms up as a 'release' whilst listening to Emo Park?!?!
