Pictureboard Demo - Linkin Park

[@tulove8816]

Saturday, November 14, 2020 Brad Delson said that Pictureboard was the first song he heard Chester's voice, recent interview ... and that they wanted to meet him immediately ... that's how it all started In any case, Chester sent the demo with new lyrics written by him, that's how it all started.

[@Shreysoldier]

Is this literally the version that Chester sent to the band, or did they re-record this demo after he joined theband?

Cus back in the 99, they've played a couple of shows, and a few unreleased songs was played back then, one of is this song, but nobody had recorded in video or audio, just photo of the set list. Mike always denied the existence and asked to ppl forget about it, that the song is horrible and blá-blá-blá. Now, 21 years later, the song is released and the urban myth ceased. Pay respect for those fans who aren't here anymore to listening.

[@AviationTV]

@@maatpixels Exactly. Shinoda said in a video somewhere that many fans were asking Linkin Park to acknowledge, if not then release this song. As you said, for 20 years or so they denied to release it or its existence. They played it and because it wasn't an official song I guess nobody really recognized it. Something else I've just remembered. In an online chat some people asked Mike about this song and he responded with something like "we're never going to release this song or any information about(period)" Honestly when I found this on KZbin my reaction was 'omfg' But that crackle in the audio, i can't tell if that's an audio effect or part of the early demos and their lack (back then) of good equipment

[@snaccsize]

I heard that this was allegedy the first demo Brad Delson heard Chester sing on. He said "I remember getting that and saying, 'Hey, what do you think of this guy? He just sent us this recording.' I wasn’t like crying with joy, but almost. I was like, ‘Wow, I don’t even know what that is.’ He’s so tiny and vulnerable on the verse and you can hear all those timbres and harmonics and then all the overtones on the heavy part. To me, it just blew my hat off my head. And then we were like, ‘We gotta meet this guy.’"

Why do all the unreleased songs have the best bass lines?

[@jamesedleymusic]

Probably because they’re unmastered so the bass comes out more.

[@jupiramaster]

Some unreleased songs have this 90s alternative/grunge influence that they lost after HT. and I think this is another bass player too.

[@trychaser2518]

@‌ I've been trying to wrap my head around who's playing bass on this track for a while now. The instrumental on both versions is the same, so this was likely on Chesters audition tape. Since the instrumental dates back to the Xero days (probably 98), I'm fairly certain it has to be Phoenix on this song. They only started playing with other bassists after Chester had joined. Lanoie had probably just been given the song in order to learn it. (as far as I know he only practiced with them like 2 or 3 times) Her's another somewhat related thing that confuses me: Kyle Christener was into slap bass (e.g. his solo at the end of Could Have Been) so I assumed he played on Esaul, given the slapped bridge section. But now that we know that the instrumental recording of Esaul also dates back to Xero it can't be him. Has to be Phoenix as well. Maybe that just seems weird to me, because I don't recall Phoenix ever slapping...

[@trychaser2518]

@@jamesedleymusic They were mastered for release in the box set though. I think Brian is referring to them being more interesting writing-wise. Which I agree with, later songs tend to have rather simple basslines, lots of just holding whole notes. This and Rhinestone/Forgotten are some of my favorites though.

they played the beggining of this demo at Rock Am Ring 2001 when they were about to play the song "And One"

[@UziStorm_1727]

I didn’t know if this sing was good at all but until today it played from my liked songs i found my new fav LP song

[@IncelCherub]

i honestly dont know why there isnt more bands that have rap in it, linkin park proves that they are meant for each other yet i cant think of more then like 3 bands that do it

[@Falcoln999]

I love these older songs. Keep up the great work, Mike and the rest of Linkin Park. I've been a fan since Meteora days and always will be, no matter what.

[@themetalbasement58]

How the hell did mike say this song was not that good. Its a masterpiece

[@maland2016]

20 years (or so they tell me) in the making, and it's *_finally_* here. I dunno, it seems like it was worth the wait for those who were actually _waiting_ the 20 years! This is damn good.

[@athemalive]

But at what cost. I doubt if Chester was still with us, it would be released.

[@adrianalfonso1519]

this song is amazing!!! thank you chester! thank you linkin park!!!!!

[@IvanLjubesicljubax]

Fun fact, there is mark wakefield version too

[@kylecardpark2163]

Ah não velho, quanta música boa guardada na gaveta pegando poeira, slk, coisa maravilhosa.

[@pictureboard]

E tem várias outras, que não lançaram no canal oficial ou que nem sequer foram lançadas. O Linkin Park Underground é uma mina de ouro, mas tem muitas outras músicas que eles mantem guardadas desde aquela época primordial da banda. A demo de Numb por exemplo até hoje é um mistério. Toda música tem uma demo, principalmente no Rock, nunca fazem uma música e já lançam ela daquele jeito mesmo sem pensar em mudanças.

[@UMANGPLAYS]

Long awaited one ❤️ Bass/Guitar/Vocals in this one are at top.

[@merghost6047]

[@brendascatolin8882]
