The Hunting Party is the upcoming sixth studio album by the American rock band Linkin Park. The album, self-produced by band members Mike Shinoda and Brad Delson, will be released by Warner Bros. Records in Friday-release countries on June 13, 2014 and in North America on June 17, 2014. The album is the first since Meteora not to be produced with Rick Rubin, after producing the band's previous three studio albums.

The Hunting Party is a departure from the band's recent electronic rock sound of their previous two studio albums. The album, described by Mike Shinoda as simply "a rock record", serves a statement by the band against contemporary mainstream and active rock bands, accused by Shinoda as "trying to be other bands and playing it safe". Packaged by an artwork by Brandon Parvini based off an original drawing by James Jean, the album took under a year to record and produce, with material being improvisationally written in the studio by members of the band. The album also features guest appearances from Page Hamilton of Helmet, Rakim, Daron Malakian of System of a Down, and Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine. These are the band's first featured musicians on a studio album.

Background

In 2010 and 2012 respectively, Linkin Park released their fourth and fifth studio albums A Thousand Suns and Living Things. The albums, both produced by Rick Rubin and Mike Shinoda, marked a shift in the band's musical direction from a hard rock-oriented sound, recognized with Hybrid Theory and Meteora, both released in 2000 and 2003 respectively, to a more experimental and "cutting edge" sound.[1] The electronica-influenced albums, contrasting to what the band had released previously, were still commercially successful. A Thousand Suns, was certified Platinum in seven countries and Gold in twelve other countries, and the album charted in the top five of nineteen national record charts,[2] peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200[3] and #2 on the UK Albums Chart.[4] It's successor, Living Things, was certified Gold in eleven countries, but was only certified Platinum in France by the SNEP.[5] The album, however, also charted within the top five of sixteen national record charts,[6] once again peaking at #1 on the Billboard 200,[3] and at #1 on the UK Albums Chart.[7]

Production on the band's sixth studio album began as a result of a series of events in which Mike Shinoda decided to drop the electronic and experimental sound of the band's previous two studio albums. Shinoda had originally produced and recorded demos, which continued the sound of A Thousand Suns and Living Things, for the band's sixth studio album during the band's Living Things Tour in 2013. He presented the demos to his bandmates, which received a positive reception from the rest of the band, and to producer Rick Rubin, who was also positive towards the demos, although describing them to Shinoda as more "poppy" than he expected. However, Shinoda, after listening to the demos again after the end of the tour, felt a strong negativity towards his material, especially after Rubin's statements. In a Warner Music interview, Shinoda stated that "I was listening to the stuff I was making, but, for the most part, I listened to it and then I was like, 'This is not what I wanted to stand behind for the next album; I don't even believe in this music. This is a mistake; I don't like what I'm making'. I kind of when backwards into the process and scrapped all of it and started new stuff".[8]

Following A Thousand Suns and Living Things, albums which were created with leaving behind a sound that was "not new and not cool anymore" in mind,[9] the band's sixth studio album was approached as a return to the band's early sound, with the electronic sounds of their previous two studio albums being dropped in favor of the band's traditional rock instrumentation.[10] Using Hybrid Theory itself as a template, the band composed and recorded the album in vein of the album, but also considered the idea of a Hybrid Theory composed and recorded in context of modern times, in 2014 rather than 2000.[11] Brad Delson jokingly stated that the album was an "alternative Hybrid Theory" and "maybe its prequel", in context of the album being inspired by artists members of the band listened to before the band started their musical career.[12] Mike Shinoda told music magazine Rolling Stone about the ideas surrounding The Hunting Party: "We're not 18-year-old kids making a loud record – we're 37-year-old adults making a loud record. And what makes a 37-year-old angry is different than what made us angry back in the day".[11]

Composition

"Guilty All the Same"
A sample of the third track on the album, "Guilty All the Same". The Hunting Party sees the band return to the sounds of their three previous studio albums in the 2000s, which acted as a musical template for the album itself.

The band took a different method in writing new material for their sixth studio album as opposed to their previous albums. While for all their previous albums they used the traditional method of writing, demoing and rerecording in the studio, songs were instead written and composed in the studio itself, with no material being written or composed beforehand. Guitarist Brad Delson spoke about the methods used on the album in an interview with Premier Guitar, saying that "Something unintentional might be the coolest sound I make all day, and knowing how to allow those mistakes to happen and to shape them potentially makes for some great music".[13]

Shinoda described the album's sound as a 1990s style of rock record "It's a Rock record. It's loud and it’s Rock, but not in the sense of what you’ve heard before, which is more like '90s Hardcore-Punk-Thrash".[14] He stated the "weak" status of modern rock in the music industry as an inspiration in recording a heavier rock album; to try to bring the sound of the 90s back to the forefront.[14] In an interview with MusicRadar, Delson stated that the album will feature many more guitar solos. He further stated that "this is from someone who was quoted early on as saying I hated them. Not that I hated them as a listener; I just don’t want to play any; I shirked guitar solos. Early on, I felt as though the songs we were making aesthetically didn't want them. This new batch of songs, to me, always want solos. I feel like every song has one."[15]

Recording

File:Control Room studio 1 EastWest.jpg
The Hunting Party was partly recorded at EastWest Studios in Hollywood, California.

The Hunting Party was recorded at the Larrabee Sound Studios, located in Hollywood, Los Angeles, California. During the recording for the band's sixth studio album, the band would spend five or six days a week at the Larrabee Studios working on the record. The Hunting Party was also recorded in part at EastWest Studios, also located in Hollywood. There, drummer Rob Bourdon and Mike Shinoda would record drums and percussion for the album. The band would also record other material for the album at EastWest on occasion.[13]

In an interview with Rolling Stone, Shinoda said that the album was difficult for drummer Rob Bourdon, where he had to push himself to meet the music speed and style. He commented that "It's probably the hardest stuff he's ever played on one of our albums. He had to physically work his way up to it. He had to go running, lift weights, work with a trainer", eventually Bourdon feels that he had become a better drummer at the end of each day after recording.[11] Shinoda later told Q magazine that Bourdon had to seek help from a chiropractor after he had broken his back marathon-recording material for the new album. Shinoda told Q that "Rob was killing himself. He played 10 hours a day for seven days straight and blew his back".[16]

Orange, Bogner and ENGL brand amplifiers were used on the record by guitarist Brad Delson, providing a "core sound" described by engineer Ethan Mates as "a small collection of core tones to be used in a sonically consistent way throughout the record". Chandler brand amps were also used for overdubs and "higher parts".[17] Delson spoke about his studio setup for The Hunting Party, stating that "It’s great to have a setup where I can run combinations of heads and cabs simultaneously to get the most appropriate tone, or do something more straightforward like record just one cabinet with two mikes".[18]

Guitarist Brad Delson contributed greatly to the production of The Hunting Party.

On the last few records I certainly played guitar in the studio, but I’d been focusing on other instruments. I've been playing guitar since I was 12, and it had become fascinating to learn keyboards, programming, and Pro Tools, which is like an instrument in itself. But these songs are all about rediscovering the guitar and having a lot of fun with it. There’s an unpredictability to these songs that lends itself to me just picking up a guitar and playing insanity. Nothing is preplanned. For some of the faster solos I warm up, but not in an overtly methodical way. If I want to record a solo over at a fast tempo, I just noodle on that Strat for an hour until I’m hyper-fast. I don’t want to merge onto the highway at 15 miles per hour. I want to be at full speed by the time I get thrown on to it.

— Brad Delson[18]

Lead singer Chester Bennington arrived late in the recording process of the album, after having recorded High Rise and toured with Stone Temple Pilots for most of 2013.[19] He had been chosen to replace Stone Temple Pilots' original lead singer Scott Weiland, who had been dismissed by the band after he had attempted to embark on a solo tour with the band's critically acclaimed debut studio album Core.[20] When he eventually joined the band in the studio, he was surprised to find the band had reverted to their heavier rock-centric sound. Bennington stated in an interview with Kerrang!: "Mike wrote tons while I was touring with Stone Temple Pilots last year. When I got home, there was a lot for me to catch up with, and he was playing me things and I was like, 'Dude, this is fucking awesome!' I was really surprised how heavy it was".[21]

The album features four guest artists; Rakim from the golden age hip hop duo Eric B. & Rakim on "Guilty All the Same", Page Hamilton from American alternative metal band Helmet on "All for Nothing", Daron Malakian from American rock band System of a Down for the song "Rebellion" and Tom Morello of Rage Against the Machine fame on the song "Drawbar".[22][23] Lead singer Chester Bennington commented on the collaborations, stating that "We really felt like if we need to be inspired and move in another direction. I think when we got Page in, Mike had written this chorus and sang it, and his voice had this tone, and it was unlike anything I'd heard from him before. And I was like, "Dude this is crazy, this sounds like a Helmet song! It's cool!" And we were like, "Dude, why don't we see if we can get like Page in here?" You know? And if that's why the song says it's feeling like it should be, then why don't we just go straight to the source".[24]

Packaging

Artwork

File:James Jean - Archer.jpg
"Archer", a sketch by James Jean which served as the basis for the cover art of The Hunting Party, as it appears in his sketchbook.

The album cover for The Hunting Party features a 3D modeled artwork by Brandon Parvini, who had previously designed the artworks for Living Things and the band's singles during the album's release cycle. The artwork was based off an original drawing, entitled "Archer", by Taiwanese American visual artist James Jean that was created by Jean for the band's sixth studio album.[25] It is one of many artworks by Jean to be used in the packaging of the album, which will also feature, in deluxe editions of the album, a lithograph, t-shirt and a 36-page art book by Jean himself. Jean's traditional style, notably different to the artwork created for The Hunting Party had been previously described by Dana Jennings of The New York Times as "suffused with a dreamy romanticism and lyricism worthy of Maxfield Parrish, even as Mr. Jean subverts those and other isms."[26]

Linkin Park had professed that they have been fans of James Jean's art for a while, describing discussions between the band and Jean as having "started naturally".[27] Joe Hahn served as a creative director for the artwork of The Hunting Party, instructing Jean to "create a universe inhabited by powerful characters and defined by strange landscapes", with a general concept of having a unique "character" for each track on the album. Brad Delson also contributed ideas of "internal and external struggles", metaphorically depicted on a battlefield, where images such as "flesh tearing and transforming into different forms and brittle shards of crystal erupting from organic matter" would recur. Mike Shinoda explained: "We try to approach our art—packaging, merchandise, tour visuals, videos, anything—in a holistic way. All the parts are interconnected, and by creating great imagery that can be used in multiple contexts, we can immerse the fans in a universe that is consistent and unique to each release. It's always a work in progress, but I feel like we've learned a lot and continue to make it better each time".[27]

James Jean was invited by Shinoda and Delson to listen to the band's rough material created early on during the recording sessions for The Hunting Party. He acknowledged the band's change of musical direction from A Thousand Suns and Living Things, and was inspired by the material to create artworks that were "charged with [the band's] intensity as well as their rationale for that change". However, Joe Hahn banned Jean from listening to any more material after Jean had performed some of the songs from memory on his piano.[27] Jean originally sketched each individual artwork for The Hunting Party in a personal sketchbook, where it felt more intimate and less precious to Jean. The minimality of the images was intentional, as the artworks would eventually be made into 3D-modelled artworks where lighting and texture would be added to each character. 20 artworks were made in the space of a month by Jean for Brandon Parvini and his team to transform into 3D-modelled artworks, with Parvini choosing exactly which artworks would be modelled for The Hunting Party.[27]

Title

The title of the album, The Hunting Party, is a contextual metaphor. The album, a return to the band's original harder rock-centric sounds, represents the band's desire to not only create something different from other rock bands, but to also bring back the "energy and soul" of rock itself, and that Linkin Park are the party that will hunt for that energy and soul. Shinoda elaborated on the title of the album in an interview with Kerrang!. He explained: "We got so sick of other bands trying to be other bands and playing it safe the whole time, so the album name comes from a theory about culture becoming too passive, everyone just standing around waiting for opportunities to come to them instead of going out and getting theirs. I'm aware there are always going to be heavier bands than us, but The Hunting Party is Linkin Park going out and getting it for ourselves".[21] The inspiration for the title came from a news article Shinoda read online about a Japanese writer's concerns about today's growing society. The writer described the young men of today as "herbivores", and explained how they are essentially grazing, waiting for an opportunity to come to them, rather than hunting for it.[27]

Promotion

Linkin Park are set to embark with American rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars on the double-headline Carnivores Tour.

On March 6, 2014, the band premiered "Guilty All the Same", which features American rapper Rakim, from the upcoming studio album through Shazam.[28] The track was later released by Warner Bros. on March 7, 2014 as the lead single promoting the then-unannounced sixth studio album by the band. A music video for "Guilty All the Same" was also produced and premiered on YouTube on March 25, 2014. The music video, a continuation of the band's collaboration with Xbox, was made entirely with the in-game engine of Team Dakota's 2014 sandbox video game Project Spark. Additionally, the course made for the music video was made openly available by the band, giving players of Project Spark on Microsoft Windows and the Xbox One the opportunity of editing and remixing the course.[29]

While information about Linkin Park's sixth studio album had leaked beforehand, including the album's title and release date,[30][31] The Hunting Party was officially unveiled by the band and Warner Bros. Records on April 9, 2014.[10] The track listing of the album was additionally unveiled by Mike Shinoda and Linkin Park's management team on April 27, 2014.[32] "Until It's Gone", the seventh track on the album, became the second track to be unveiled. It was released as a single, the second to be released in promotion of The Hunting Party, on May 6, 2014. Pre-orders for the album were also opened on the same day, with "Guilty all the Same" and "Until It's Gone" released early on the album's iTunes Store page.[33] "Wastelands" was released early on the iTunes Store on June 1, 2014,[34] and was later released as a single on June 2.[35] On June 3, 2014, Chester appeared on Zane Lowe's BBC Radio 1 show to premiere the song, "Rebellion".[36] An official lyric video was released alongside a release of the track on the iTunes Store the same day on June 3, 2014. It was later released as a single, the fourth in promotion of the album, on June 4.[37] On June 8, 2014, Linkin Park premiered "Final Masquerade" on MTV.com.[38][39]

A listening session for members of the Linkin Park Underground, the band's official premium fan club, took place on May 23, 2014 in Hollywood, California. Passes to the event were also given away in competitions held by various California-based media outlets such as KROQ-FM. Further listening sessions for Linkin Park Underground members were announced for June 4, 2014 in various locations worldwide.[40][better source needed] The band, additionally, are set to host the tenth and eleventh editions of the LPU summit, a convention for Underground members, during the album cycle. The tenth edition will be held at the The Darien Lake Performing Arts Center in Darien, New York on August 21, 2014,[41] and the eleventh edition will be held at the Cynthia Woods Mitchell Pavilion in The Woodlands, Texas on September 5, 2014.[42]

The band's first live performance of the The Hunting Party album cycle was on May 24, 2014 at the KMFA Day music festival, in which they headlined. The band performed "Guilty All the Same", "Until It's Gone" and "Wastelands" for the first time.[43] The band also performed as headliners at Rock in Rio Lisboa VI on May 30, 2014. During the performance, Mike Shinoda threw CD singles containing the studio version of "Wastelands" out into the open audience, with the intention of having fans leak the track, in the same manner as "Lies Greed Misery".[44][better source needed] Linkin Park are also set to embark on a double-headline tour of North America with American alternative rock band Thirty Seconds to Mars in support of both The Hunting Party and Thirty Seconds to Mars' 2013 album Love, Lust, Faith and Dreams.[45] The tour, dubbed the Carnivores Tour, will span 25 dates in August and September 2014, with American rock band AFI serving as opening act during the entire tour.[46]
