Linkin Park, 'Wretches and Kings' -- Song Premiere
From noisecreep.com:
A new Linkin Park album is always an event in the rock world. The band's new album, 'A Thousand Suns,' hits stores on Sept. 14. It's been three years since 'Minutes to Midnight,' so fans are clamoring for more from the California rockers.
Linkin Park are giving away the song 'Wretches and Kings' to people who pre-order the album at www.linkinpark.com. But first, AOL is beyond pleased to give fans the first listen to the beat-driven 'Wretches and Kings' with this exclusive premiere.
The song kicks off with an impassioned speech about breaking away from the machines that dictate life as we know it, before launching into a thunderous beat and Chester Bennington's signature vocals.

MTV CALLS A THOUSAND SUNS “LINKIN PARK’S ‘KID A’”
From MikeShinoda.com
“According to legend, in August of 2000, a group of clearly terrified Capitol Records executives were outfitted with headphones, loaded into a series of unmarked vans and driven down the Pacific Coast Highway, where they listened to Radiohead’s Kid A for the first time. It was an inspired — not to mention particularly apt — premiere for the album, and though the whole thing is rather apocryphal, it certainly made for nice copy at the time.
I only mention that because in August of 2010, a clearly relaxed Warner Bros. publicist sat me down in her office and allowed me one of the first listens to Linkin Park’s A Thousand Suns. There were no headphones or unmarked vans or winding, windswept vistas — budgetary cuts, one can only assume — just an iced coffee and a notepad, which was sort of a shame, because if ever there was an album that deserves the Radiohead treatment, it’s this one. Since, as you’ll probably discover in the coming weeks, A Thousand Suns is most definitely Linkin Park’s Kid A…completely different from the band’s previous efforts that it will almost certainly stand as the line of demarcation between everything that came before and everything that will come after…”
A big thank you to James Montgomery for the flattering (and ballsy) piece. Read the whole article here: http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1646930/20100831/linkin_park.jhtml

New LINKIN PARK album | A THOUSAND SUNS
Message from Mike on knowngallery.com:
Hey Casey...Thanks for reaching out. The pre-order went up today--we're really excited. It's the first time we've been able to sell direct-to-fan from our website, so we wanted to go big: if you buy anything (even the skate deck or the t-shirt), you get the digital version of the album for free. Everyone who buys anything gets that, plus access to presale concert tickets, so you get better seats (But you don't need to worry about the seats thing--you know we'll always have room for you and the crew at the show). And the digital versions of everything as early as humanly possible.
The skate deck is a real winner. Pro-level, skate-able quality, sick art. Hand signed by all the guys in the band, and limited to 1000 copies in the world. $99.99
As for A THOUSAND SUNS...The album is our most adventurous yet. We took a lot of risks on this one: some of the craziest sounds and a couple of the longest songs in our career. As a general idea, it's kinda a response to what's going on in popular music: too many people are focused on "singles" and putting things together in poppy, bite sized pieces...so we decided to do the opposite. We're making a case for "the album." If someone wants to listen to it in pieces, it works that way...but they'll be missing out on the experience you get on if you hear it as a whole. We really put our hearts into this one; I think it's pretty special. It comes out on September 14th.

A Thousand Suns: Six-tracks-sampler review
From LPLive.net
Check this review of ATS made by "Music Mag" which is a French website
They commented six songs, and we now know their lengths!
Friday, July 16 was held at Warner plays a few songs from the new album of Linkin Park, A Thousand Suns, which is set to release on Sepetember 13. Two management representatives of Linkin Park arrive in early afternoon with their luggage in which there was a disk that is half of the album, six titles. The Listening takes place in the office of Alain Veille, the boss of the label WEA. After having signed privacy policies usual, the staff weighed the U.S. first track.
1) Untitled [4'39"]
It starts with a long intro which turns to drums, keyboard and finally vocals in the background. Chester Bennington is the only to give voice to the first verse whose rhythm is almost dancing. A big break that recalls the excellent electro Reanimation (the remix album Hybrid Theory) breaks the rhythm of the song. Mike Shinoda does his apparation in the bridge. He calmly raised his voice and the song goes back in power. The title ends with an a cappella of both singers
2) Untitled [4'13"]
It begins with what could be the voice of a leader who harangued the crowd. An electric guitar riff quite Launches the song. Mike Shinoda raps over the entire first verse. The choruses are chanted by Chester ("Hey!" Hey! "). Unlike the first track played, Mike Shinoda, who co-produced the album with Rick Rubin (Slayer, Metallica, Slipknot), is very present on this title.
3) Untitled [4'00 "]
A guitar and a piano introduces the third piece. The singing of Mike Shinoda on the verse is pretty amazing, almost ragga! The chorus is not really identifiable with the first listen. The track runs itself without real structure. Linkin Park abandons the traditional verse / chorus. Note that for the first time in the discography of Linkin Park, Brad Delson up a guitar solo on the end of the song.
4) Untitled [4'35"]
On this track, the tempo is slower than the first three. The intensity of the song goes crescendo, like the other titles we note the absence of a real chorus easily identifiable.Has Linkin Park decided to make an album that will not go down in radio?
5) Untitled [4'26"]
Of the six titles, is without question one the most surprising. Like what could be "Breaking The Habit" on Meteora, this piece, where Chester sings alone, stands out from the rest by its lack of thickness. No guitar is heard before the third minute. Repeated many times Chester "I'm Losing What I Do not Deserve". Potential title: "What I Do not Deserve".
6) "The Catalyst" [5'42"]
The first single from the disc. Here, we expect a more formatted way in the spirit of what Linkin Park has always offered on the previous albums ... Well, no. It will still be ironed. For once, we are very far from a "Somewhere I Belong" (Meteora, 2003) or "What I've Done (Minutes To Midnight, 2007). The name of the album, A Thousand Suns, is taken from the lyrics of "The Catalyst". An amusing detail, we note that the piano part that comes at the end of the piece bears a resemblance to the song "Le Grand Secret" iwith Indochine and Melissa Auf Der Maur!
Listening to these six titles, it appears with the pleasant impression that Linkin Park has taken a real risk with this album: Finished formatted songs and radio jingles. According to information from the press officer of WEA, the other six pieces are much more focused on guitars. The album promises to a tasty mix of electro experimentation on one side and big rock songs of the other. Stay tuned ...
They say that it's quite a surprise and that there will be 12 tracks on the album.

NEW ALBUM, “A THOUSAND SUNS,” OUT SEPTEMBER 14
No puzzles or hidden messages with this one. We’re excited to finally announce that our new album, A THOUSAND SUNS, will be released on September 14th.
The lead single for the album is called “The Catalyst.” It will be released on August 2nd.
Beginning tomorrow, July 9th, we’re teaming up with MySpace and MixParade for “Linkin Park, Featuring You,” a contest which gives you the one-of-a-kind opportunity to be on our new album. We’ll be giving you some audio from “The Catalyst,” and you get to take it from there; you can remix the parts, write something over them, or mute stuff and write something totally new. We may choose a remix of the song, and put it on the album…or, we may choose an amazing keyboardist, string quartet, guitarist, percussion group, or other musician, and invite them into the studio to play on one of our songs. No matter what instrument you play, you can win. We’re open to anything good. All we ask is that you include any audible portion of any one of our stems in your submission.
Once you submit, the community (that’s you) will vote, and the most popular stuff will rise to the top. Then, my bandmates and I will comb through the submissions, choose one winner, and they will be included on our album, A THOUSAND SUNS. Check out http://www.myspace.com/linkinpark for contest details.
I think I’ve said enough for now. Thanks for your continued support. We’ve got more announcements coming, so keep checking LinkinPark.com for updates.
