Linkin Park Cooking Up Genre-Busting Album for 2010

Linkin Park co-frontman Mike Shinoda says the bands fourth studio album is Cheap Rosetta Stone going to be so unique, "theyre going to have to come up with a new genre name for what this record is."Shinoda wants to shake things up in the rock world with the follow-up to 2007s Minutes To Midnight, and tells Rosetta Stone Linkin Park are doing just that. Theyre about halfway through the writing process and hope to have the album ready for an early 2010 release. But Shinoda adds that the quality of the tunes is chief among his concerns, and that "if we need to take a step back and make sure everything is top, top quality by our standards, we will."The way Shinoda sees it, this countrys musical appetite mirrors its appetite for food. "People just want junk food," he explains. "They want throw-away junk food music thats going to make them lethargic and fat. McDonalds is great once in a while, in Rosetta Stone V3 moderation. Eat it every day and you just turn into a slob. We feel the same way about music. We want to hopefully move even more into being able to make more substantial music, and weve always been capable of it, but sometimes, there were different things that we got excited about on each record, about what we wanted to write and what we wanted to make and what kind of statement we wanted to make. On this record, were definitely paying attention to the substance and the nuance, and we hope to make something thats really cutting edge and really different."Before Rosetta Stone Chinese the world gets another Linkin Park record, though, the bands other mike-wielder, Chester Bennington, plans to release his first solo project, under the banner Dead By Sunrise. In addition, the band is currently collaborating with legendary composer Hans Zimmer on the score to Transformers: Rise of the Fallen. The band contributed a fresh song, "New Divide," to the films soundtrack, "and when we delivered the song, everyone loved it, and so they invited us to work on the score."This is the first time weve written something to visuals on a screen, writing as youre looking at something to be inspired by," Shinoda explains, "and as the scene moves along, the music changes, and its been a lot of fun to do that. This single marks the beginning of what we hope will be a more prolific phase Cheap Rosetta Stone V3 on our career."Back to the new LP disc: Shinoda says the record isnt what he would describe as a concept album, but has some cohesive elements.
