As soon as the online puzzle are online there's a solution!
An orange watermark on the image reveals:
The Catalyst, August 2nd.
Is this the name of the first single and its release date? It would definitely coincide with what was leaked on LPLive date-wise last week. We have some solid information! Only one more month!

Chester To Be Featured On The New Carlos Santana Album
From lplive.net:
From the very recent interview with Carlos Santana:
Tell me about your new studio album. It sounds like a pretty exciting project.
I'm very, very grateful because I get to participate in something that is very [wonderful]. For example, "Supernatural" was a really, really humongous door for me to walk through. This is another one; I can see it already. The name of the CD is probably going to be called "Guitar Heaven." The songs are from Jimi Hendrix, "Little Wing"; "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," The Beatles; "Can't You Hear Me Knocking," The Rolling Stones; "Sunshine of Your Love," Cream; "Back in Black," AC/DC; "Dance the Night Away," Van Halen; "Whole Lotta Love" (Led Zeppelin); "Smoke on the Water" (Deep Purple); "Riders on the Storm" (The Doors); "Fortunate Son" (Creedence Clearwater Revival).
The [guests] are Joe Cocker, India.Arie, Yo-Yo Ma, Scott Weiland, Rob Thomas, Pat Monahan, Chris Cornell, Jacoby Shaddix, Chester Bennington, Scott Stapp. All of my life, since I can remember, everything that I do is coming in with everyone. I don't come in alone. So this is not like a shtick or a gimmick or something that I do with guest artists. I've been doing this since '67 with everyone. It feels wonderful to walk into a room and you feel the love. With Joe Cocker or India.Arie or Rob Thomas, there's a mutual exchange of love, so by the time we get to the song, it's very natural, normal.

Linkin Park’s New Sound On Upcoming Album
XFM Radio (London) has provided some news about Linkin Park’s upcoming album and their new “sound,” here’s what the radio’s anchorperson said:
I had someone come in and play me brand new Linkin Park material in the wake. Someone from the management company. This is no lie. Came in to the XFM studio with a cop from America who would flown over with the one copy of the 6-track sampler of the new Linkin Park album and basically this cop’s job was to guard it at all times. This is the true story. It really was the case of the new material being on the lock and key. But it was really good and actually very different. If you’re one of those people who thought that Linkin Park have made the same album 3 times as far as their new studio releases go, I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised with this new one. There’s rapping on it, but not the kind of rock-rap type of stuff that Mike Shinoda has done in the past. And the track is going to be the first single. At its full-length is almost proggy in places. It’s very very good. Lots of take in, lots of new layers coming with the Linkin Park sound. And of course they have confirmed the full UK tour.
