Linkin Park: The Hunting Party

I like Linkin Park since I was in high school. It was their first album, Hybrid Theory. Now you can guess how old am I from this timeline, lol.

In my house we only had one TV, and that time our TV was broken. So for me the only source to get music update back then was only from radio. How about internet? Man.. it was 1999 in a small town in Indonesia, internet was something new and very expensive. So I couldn't afford it, radio was free ;) One of my friend mentioned about this band, Linkin Park. She said their song was amazing. So I stayed tune in front of my radio waiting for this band. And my first song was "In The End". I was hypnotized, feel amazed with their song, a beautiful rock song. And since that day I became their fan. I bought their albums and always follow their news update.

I was a teenage and I thought they are able to understand me through their songs. Their songs was heal my soul at some point. I love them!

Hybrid Theory always be my favorite album, while A Thousand Suns is my least fave one. The Hunting Party is their sixth studio album, it reminds me to their first album. It has more rock touch, which I like and also has a little bit slow beat touch that reminds me to Minutes to Midnight. Overall I love The Hunting Party, although when I played it next to my mom she said, "Why is he (Chester:p) keep screaming?" LOL.. poor mom! I think must use my head phones!

Castle of Glass lyrics by Linkin Park

Take me down to the river bend
Take me down to the fighting end
Wash the poison from off my skin
Show me how to be whole again

Fly me up on a silver wing
Past the black where the sirens sing
Warm me up in a nova's glow
And drop me down to the dream below

'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass
Hardly anything left for you to see
For you to see

Bring me home in a blinding dream,
Through the secrets that I have seen
Wash the sorrow from off my skin
And show me how to be whole again

'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass
Hardly anything left for you to see
For you to see

'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass
Hardly anything else I need to be

'Cause I'm only a crack in this castle of glass
Hardly anything left for you to see
For you to see
For you to see

Burn It Down - Linkin Park

The cycle repeated
As explosions broke in the sky
All that I needed
Was the one thing I couldn't find
And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know

We're building it up
To break it back down
We're building it up
To burn it down
We can't wait
To burn it to the ground

The colors conflicted
As the flames, climbed into the clouds
I wanted to fix this
But couldn't stop from tearing it down
And you were there at the turn
Caught in the burning glow
And I was there at the turn
Waiting to let you know

We're building it up
To break it back down
We're building it up
To burn it down
We can't wait
To burn it to the ground

You told me yes
You held me high
And I believed when you told that lie
I played soldier, you played king
And struck me down, when I kissed that ring
You lost that right, to hold that crown
I built you up, but you let me down
So when you fall, I'll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

And you were there at the turn
Waiting to let me know

We're building it up
To break it back down
We're building it up
To burn it down
We can't wait
To burn it to the ground

When you fall, I'll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

We can't wait
To burn it to the ground

When you fall, I'll take my turn
And fan the flames
As your blazes burn

We can't wait
To burn it to the ground

Linkin Park - Burn It Down

According to official information from Linkinpark.com the next new single will be titled "Burn It Down" and will be released on Apr16, 2012.

Good news, they give us preview of the song. It's only 30 seconds, so don't be too hurry to make judgement regarding the whole song or album. You could download it from link below:

Enjoy!

My opinion?
Sounds like ATS touch, but with more Chaz's rock voice.. can hear their old vibe a bit. Can't make any judgement yet. Prefer to wait till listen the full song :D

Linkin Park - Rolling In The Deep (Adele Cover)

Rolling In The Deep lyrics

There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark
Finally I can see you crystal clear
Go ahead and sell me out and I'll lay your ship bare

See how I'll leave, with every piece of you
Don't underestimate the things that I will do
There's a fire starting in my heart
Reaching a fever pitch and it's bring me out the dark

The scars of your love remind me of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat

Baby, I have no story to be told
But I've heard one of you and I'm gonna make your head burn
Think of me in the depths of your despair
Making a home down there as mine sure won't be shared

The scars of your love remind you of us
They keep me thinking that we almost had it all
The scars of your love, they leave me breathless
I can't help feeling

We could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
And you played it to the beat


Could have had it all
Rolling in the deep
You had my heart inside your hand
But you played it with a beating

Throw your soul through every open door
Count your blessings to find what you look for
Turn my sorrow into treasured gold
You pay me back in kind and reap just what you sow

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
We could have had it all

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
It all, it all, it all, it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
We could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
And you played it to the beat

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
Could have had it all
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
Rolling in the deep

(Now I'm gonna wish you never had met me)
You had my heart and soul in your hand
(Tears are gonna fall, rolling in the deep)
But you played it, you played it, you played it to the beat

OMG, it's already 4 days from today. I'm so excited! Although I only bought the cheapest price ticket, lol. Hear their voice live n watch them from a far or big screen just enough.. :p Look how this poor woman talk, haha!

Below is my ticket ^,^

I will go to Jakarta by train, I miss to use train a lot. I will take Malang - Jakarta route. The train name is Gajayana, it's an executive train so it will be very comfortable for me to ride it for 14 hours. My oh my.. 14 hours:D I will need to bring a lot of food with me!

Just visit PT. KAI's web to see how's the Gajayana's interior, well I think it's very comfortable. I will take my own documentation when I take this train to Jakarta.

In Jakarta I will be taken care by my childhood friend. Too bad he cancelled his plan to watch the concert with me. He's one of Linkin Park's fan just like me, and he's so sad because he must work overtime at that day instead of watching the concert. Poor Chup T__T  After the concert he will send me to his friend flat, because he must back to office again. I'm thinking about to stay in an inn near Gambir train station so I could wake up late the next day:p Let's see how is it..

After arrive back at Malang I will visit my best friend's house. It's been a while since the last time I visit her family. So I hope I will have fun there. Miss them a lot!

The next day I need to pick up my sister in Surabaya Airport. Well, what a busy week!

がんばります!

Mike Shinoda - The Raid (Serbuan Maut)

Mike Shinoda (Linkin park) always amaze me with his work . Currently he has new project and his project is related to my beloved country Indonesia! <3 Mike apparently working on the score of Indonesian movie called The Raid (Serbuan Maut). Please refer to video below for your reference:

It's under MATURE AUDIENCES rating, so should you are underage please do not continue to watch it. I will provide some pics of this movie for you ;)

or you could watch it directly @ 

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SjAfIAeGZ4http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5SjAfIAeGZ4

Production : PT Merantau Films/XYZ Films

Director : Gareth Evans
Producer : Ario Sagantoro
Executive Producer : Maya Barack-Evans
Cinematografi: Matt Flannery
Editor : Gareth Huw Evans
Production designer : Moti D. Setyanto
Music: Fajar Yuskemal, Aria Prayogi
Cast: Iko Uwais, Yayan Ruhian, Joe Taslim, Doni Alamsyah, dan Ray Sahetapy

Below is the synopsis of The Raid:
In the heart of Jakarta lies a rundown apart¬ment infested with druggies and drifters. It’s ruled by a ruthless drug lord who uses the tenement to shelter his junkie customers, pushers, enforcers and brutal killers. The apartment block is considered untouch¬able by even the bravest of police—until one early morning when, cloaked under dawn’s dark¬ness, an elite SWAT team, led by officer Rama (Uwais), raids the peril-filled structure.  As Rama’s squad races between the maze of rooms and floors, encountering a barrage of gunfire, machetes, and ruthless hand-to-hand combat around every corner, the stakes get higher and higher building to an explosive crescendo and an ultimate battle.

My opinion,
* the music is GOOD as I expected from Mike Shinoda <3 As the trailer reach into it ends the tense of the music is getting higher and more mixing on it. Like it!
* the trailer, is very violent yes, and you could see blood everywhere. The actors have a very good martial art skill, make your eyes wide open when they start hitting, kicking, shooting:D The filming just very good, just like a Hollywood movie. A very good quality for Indonesian movie! ^__^

As it's selected in some international film festival such as Toronto International Film Festival, Sitges Fantastic International Film Festival, Busan International Film Festival and also after watching this heart pumping trailer. We should watch this movie for sure! It will be in Indonesian theaters in January 2012, so don't missed it!
