"Lost Demos" is a haunting and heartbreaking reminder of what we lost in Chester Bennington. But it's also a celebration of his talent and heart. It is the closest thing we'll ever get to a new LINKIN PARK record, and it captures Bennington's gentle soul, which means more to fans than the music.

Disc 6 is everything I had wanted it to be, "Massive" has left my ears ringing, and one I had to leave on repeat since 6 am it's so fucking good to me --Sort of a Linkin Park meets Deftones, is that why they didn't have it on the record?--. Think it fits comfortably in-between From the Inside and Breaking the Habit. Also Healing Foot is a full song! so good only knew it as an instrumental. "Wesside" is the hardest nu-metal beat I've ever heard, 8-bit west coast vibes infect ... read more

Adds so much to the already amazing Meteora. The demos and unreleased tracks here go so hard and are honestly my favorite parts of this entire 20th anniversary.
Best songs are More The Victim/Healing Foot/Massive/Resolution
