Lost Demos is the sixth and final disc on Linkin Park's Meteora (20th Anniversary Edition) collection released on April 7, 2023. The disc was released as a standalone compilation album exclusively in digital format on May 4, 2023 and in blue vinyl format on November 24, 2023 for the Record Store Day. A black vinyl was released on March 01, 2024.

Composition

The Lost Demos features 14 previously unreleased demos recorded during the Meteora sessions. Many titles in this collection were known about by the community for years, but the titles were not associated with specific demos until this release. Alternative demos of "More The Victim", "A.06", "Faint" and "Figure.09" previously appeared on LP Underground albums. "Massive", "Healing Foot" and "Wesside" were completely new titles at the time of their release. "Lost" is the only song which has been reworked for this release, having received a completely new mix by Manny Marroquin (who also mixed Living Things and One More Light). The original version of the song, mixed by Andy Wallace, is exclusive to the "Deluxe CD" version of Meteora (20th Anniversary Edition). Although not noted in the tracklist, "Resolution" is an early demo of "Lost". The same track was the basis for the joke song "The Wizard Song" heard in The Making Of Meteora and Work In Progress.

The disc was released as a standalone compilation album exclusively in digital format on May 4, 2023 and in blue vinyl format on November 24, 2023 for the Record Store Day.

-==Background==
-On August 18, 2010, the front page of the LP Underground website was revamped with a new design to match A Thousand Suns. The announcement on the page read that the LPU website would be moving from lpunderground.com to linkinpark.com/lpu and that the new LPU would launch in October.<ref>https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5180-lpux-announced/ LPLive: LPUX Announced</ref>
-Preorders for LPUX were launched the same day and as a bonus for preordering the new Annual Pass ($60), fans were given an mp3 (320 kbps) digital download of ''A Decade Underground'', a compilation of LP Underground demos. The release was not advertised by Linkin Park or the LP Underground as it simply came as a bonus for preordering LPUX: ''"* Free download of A Decade Underground, an exclusive LPU digital download of songs released by the LPU over the last 10 years, which includes an UNRELEASED DEMO from 2008 titled "Pretend To Be""''<ref>https://www.lpassociation.com/forum/threads/lpu10-coming-soon.31500/ LPAssociation: LPU10 Coming Soon</ref>
 ==Composition==
-The compilation includes all eight songs previously released in 2008 on ''[[Songs From The Underground]]'' along with "[[Across The Line]]" from ''[[LP Underground 9: Demos]]''. The release also featured a brand new demo previously unknown to Linkin Park fans - "[[Pretend To Be]]" (Unreleased Demo 2008). The song would later on be released physically as track six on ''[[LP Underground X: Demos]]'' in November 2010.
+The Lost Demos features 14 previously unreleased demos recorded during the ''[[Meteora]]'' sessions. Many titles in this collection were known about by the community for years, but the titles were not associated with specific demos until this release. Alternative demos of "[[More The Victim]]", "[[A.06]]", "[[Faint]]" and "[[Figure.09]]" previously appeared on LP Underground albums. "Massive", "Healing Foot" and "Wesside" were completely new titles at the time of their release. "Lost" is the only song which has been reworked for this release, having received a completely new mix by Manny Marroquin (who also mixed ''[[Living Things]]'' and ''[[One More Light]]''). The original version of the song, mixed by Andy Wallace, is exclusive to the "Deluxe CD" version of ''Meteora (20th Anniversary Edition)''. Although not noted in the tracklist, "Resolution" is an early demo of "Lost". The same track was the basis for the joke song "[[The Wizard Song]]" heard in ''[[The Making Of Meteora]]'' and ''[[Work In Progress]]''.
-The LPU website accidentally listed the release date of the download as August 10, 2010, but it was actually released on August 18, 2010.<ref>https://lplive.net/forums/topic/5180-lpux-announced/?do=findComment&comment=91686 LPLive: LPUX Announced, Tracklisting</ref>
