A new non-Facebook video was released afterwards. The video for Lost In The Echo also saw Linkin Park embrace new technology, syncing with the viewer’s Facebook account to incorporate personal photos into the video. Let’s see what we want to do.’ I said to them, “You know, this is like a real moment for us, now, on this album.” They were like, ‘Yeah, we hear the merit. “When the guys heard it, I kind of said to them, ‘What do you think about that?’ and their responses, for the first time in a few years, were pretty good. I think that was one of those moments that defined what this album was going to be about. “ Lost In The Echo started with mostly electronic sounds,” Mike Shinoda told Huffington Post. Sonically, there’s a continuation of the electronica seen on previous album A Thousand Suns, but the dual vocal-play of Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda harks back to the earlier days of the band, packing a signature open-armed chorus. The opening track to the Linkin Park’s 2012 album Living Things, it was the second single released from the band’s fifth album. The song has been used numerous times in the world of gaming, from the end credits of Medal Of Honor, part of the Linkin Park DLC for Guitar Hero: Warriors Of Rock, and in the band’s own iOS game Linkin Park Revenge. It’s nice to be at a point where hopefully the music is just Linkin Park.” Early on, we felt like we may have gotten placed in a genre that we didn’t feel comfortable in. I don’t function really well in that mindset. Speaking to Artist Direct about The Catalyst’s new musical direction, Linkin Park’s bassist Dave Farrell said: “I don’t like genres when it comes to our music. “ The Catalyst recalls Muse’s epic vocal chants as well as Green Day’s political commentary, but Linkin Park creates an original, if a bit awkward, transition from twisty techno to fist-pumping rock.” “ The Catalyst lets the band dip its toe into electronica in its first half, with rave-ready blips surrounding Chester Bennington’s dystopian cries,” Billboard’s Jason Lipshutz wrote at the time.
The song sees the band experiment with a more electronic-led sound, incorporating techno influences and favouring synthesisers over guitars. Released in August 2010, The Catalyst was the first single from Linkin Park’s fourth studio album A Thousand Suns and reached number 40 in the UK singles charts.
