LPU7 year of screwed LP fans!
I just think they dropped the ball on this one. 10 tracks is better than 5 or 6 any day, and if they didn't have any extra material laying around, I'd be totally fine with this. But we know they recorded 17 songs for Minutes to Midnight. 13 have seen the light of day, and multiple members of the band have said in interviews that the remaining songs were being saved for future use...whatever happened to that?
Furthermore, we did NOT vote on the tracks on this CD. We voted for our favorite Projekt Revolution live tracks, just like the poll stated. It never said anywhere that the poll was being used to determine the LPU7 tracklisting (although I immediately assumed so and turned out to be right). I guess LP's management has to resort to being deceptive with their fans to weasel their way out of giving them b-sides.
Furthermore, if they can make an LPU CD longe rthan 6 tracks...why the hell did they never do that before? They could've put the entire Live 8 performance (9 tracks) on the LPU 5 CD instead of cutting it up like they did.

LP is becoming more like those mainstream bands. When LP became mainstream they still thought like one of the starving muscian bands. Now the bnd itself is beoming stagnet in their art. The 10 live song CD is proof, and the design of the shirt is proof. I doubt Mike or Joe designed the 7.0. They probably just had heads at th record label design 7.0. Just look at it, we know the band is waaaaay more artistic than this. They also know that we hate live tracks. A cd with 10 LIVE TRACKS? seriously wtf is this? I am not renwing. I joined this site for rare stuff by the band. Not crap that random peeps have, or can aqquire. Linkin Park is not the band anymore that we came to like years ago. Slowly they sell out, and with each passing CD it becomes more obvious and less oblivious to us. If they really cared about us they would leak bonus NEW stuff that they've worked on, but I seriously doubt they've even been messing around with new material on their JET!
People face it, the band we once loved and liked has SOLD OUT. They sold us out.

I couldn't agree more with the guys in this blog. It saddens me to see Linkin Park go in this direction.
If you don't like the way they are moving go listen to someone else and quit bitching about it. As for the comment about their music "stagnating" that is the complete opposite of M2M. If they had done another cd like Meteora or Hybrid Theory, that would have been stagnant. Maybe it would have sold more, but the point of following a band is dealing with changes. If you don't like the change go listen to someone else.
