Pilot

YO! my first entry :D when i first downloaded prisonbreak (yes im uber illegal), the first episode was titled "pilot" and i never understood why. I was dumb dumb enough to watch that episode THRICE to figure out why its named that way. After reading a newspaper article on " a leak of a tv series's pilot", then did i realise what it actually meant :Dk, i just publicly admitted that im really stupid ^^ and yes you'll see more of that on this blog =/ i've downloaded linkin park's new album like a week ago thanks to soemone who's more illegal than me --> MINGWEI. If you're expecting a meteora-like soundtrack, you're really in for a big surprise. The music has changed so much since their last release that the only thing i could recognise is their voices ^^ and i was sooo darn tempted to delete half the songs because im turned off after listening to them, but that changed after listening to them again a few dozen times ( not that im enlightened, just that im low on songs HAHA). Anyway, i went to wikipedia to search for "minutes to midnight" and apparently theres this section that reads :On May 4, 2007, 10 days before its official world release, Minutes to Midnight was leaked. The following day, Mike Shinoda posted his response to the leak:[7]
"It couldn't be more exciting to give you all new music, especially after all the hard work we put into it. This album was almost a year and a half of experiments, mistakes, inspiration, and careful craftsmanship. We put everything we had into these songs, and want you to hear every second of it. I can't wait for you to absorb all the levels of meaning in the songs, and the layers of music, eventually forming your own ideas about what the songs mean to you.At the same time, a leak leaves out some very important parts of this piece of work. We put months of creative energy into the ART of the record, in the booklet, special edition, and big book...almost as long as it took to record hybrid theory [sic]. The album has amazing photos, lyrics, and notes about how the songs came together--it's the visual half of the record. On the other hand, the super-special-edition book is packed with exclusive images, stories of the making of the songs, gorgeous art, the CD and a DVD that tells the story, showing the actual moments of inspiration caught on camera. For me, it's almost hard to imagine anyone really experiencing this album without that part of it.Even the song sequence alone is very important. It's WAY different to hear the songs in a random order than to listen to this record from beginning to end. At the very least, if you've already downloaded the songs, do us a huge favor and listen to them in the right order...it'll be way more rewarding. "And after reading that, i feel touched enough to go buy the album (YES, IM DUMB DUMB I KNOW) next time any artists who find that their album has been leaked, just have to write that can already :D anything's better than whining about justice being done like some bands some time back ^^~~getting used to the vulgarities they're churning out now~
