  • 00:00:04
    linol Park oh yeah so okay so that's to
  • 00:00:07
    me like was such an important question
  • 00:00:10
    that we obviously asked
  • 00:00:13
    ourselves was was the main thing was
  • 00:00:15
    that like in keeping remember I said
  • 00:00:18
    like we're keeping things very loose and
  • 00:00:20
    not defining we didn't Define the band
  • 00:00:23
    we didn't we just said we're going to
  • 00:00:24
    make music with people that's that was
  • 00:00:26
    our our like Mo and as we were doing
  • 00:00:31
    that in the middle of the process we
  • 00:00:33
    were open to like maybe the lineup is
  • 00:00:35
    like a like a moving lineup maybe
  • 00:00:38
    there's multiple vocalists maybe it's a
  • 00:00:40
    different name like stuff like that and
  • 00:00:43
    then as the music came into Focus we
  • 00:00:45
    were like this is a this is as Lincoln
  • 00:00:47
    Park an album as we could make like it's
  • 00:00:49
    so Lincoln Park that if we call it
  • 00:00:52
    something else then we are
  • 00:00:54
    idiots like because it would be it would
  • 00:00:58
    be like
  • 00:01:00
    misrepresentation like you know what I'm
  • 00:01:02
    saying I'd be like it'd be silly and
  • 00:01:06
    when people hear more of the album like
  • 00:01:08
    they will understand that like they will
  • 00:01:10
    know why we called it from zero our
  • 00:01:12
    original band name was Zero back in like
  • 00:01:16
    99 uh 988 99 and originally it was me
  • 00:01:20
    and my friend Mark and then we added
  • 00:01:22
    Brad and Dave and Joe and zero turned
  • 00:01:27
    into Hybrid Theory which turned into
  • 00:01:28
    Lincoln Park so the the name of the
  • 00:01:31
    album is a double on Tandra it's like
  • 00:01:33
    it's us starting over but it's also us
  • 00:01:35
    kind of like being in touch with our the
  • 00:01:39
    things we loved back then like we we
  • 00:01:42
    it's an energetic record it's a lot of
  • 00:01:45
    guitars um it's G to be so so fun to
  • 00:01:48
    play live I cannot wait for people to
  • 00:01:50
    hear these songs live um but yeah that's
  • 00:01:53
    I mean really that's the reason for that
  • 00:01:54
    and by the way like just to speak on the
  • 00:01:56
    Chester thing because it you know I want
  • 00:01:58
    it I want to be clear like I really
  • 00:02:02
    everybody you know they kind of have to
  • 00:02:03
    say
  • 00:02:05
    like things like Emily stepping into
  • 00:02:08
    Chester shoes and blah blah blah like I
  • 00:02:11
    I don't love that phrasing because I get
  • 00:02:14
    that she is feeling a a space in the in
  • 00:02:18
    the visual lineup of the band but I also
  • 00:02:21
    feel like Chester was one of a kind he's
  • 00:02:25
    only Chester and Emily's also one of a
  • 00:02:28
    kind she's only Emily like when you when
  • 00:02:30
    I hear her sing she doesn't sound like
  • 00:02:33
    him to me she sounds like her and that's
  • 00:02:36
    what I like like what I like about her
  • 00:02:38
    voice is that it's very unique
  • 00:02:41
    and it
  • 00:02:44
    sounds I don't know how El to explain it
  • 00:02:47
    like when she sings on the songs they
  • 00:02:49
    sound like Lincoln Park
  • 00:02:51
    songs that's just my gut that's just how
  • 00:02:53
    I feel right you feel
