The Hunting Party

The Hunting Party is American rock band Linkin Park's sixth studio album, released on June 17, 2014 through Warner Bros. Records. Five singles were released from the record: "Guilty All The Same", "Until It's Gone", "Wastelands", "Rebellion", and "Final Masquerade". The album sees the band recording heavier rock music than what they had done on their more recent releases like A Thousand Suns and Living Things, which opted for a more electronic based sound. The album debuted at #3 on the US Billboard 200 charts, making it the first studio album released by Linkin Park to not debut at #1 on that chart since Hybrid Theory.

Background

The Hunting Party is the band's sixth studio album. The band's sound returned to a heavier state after being dominated by electronics in previous efforts. Between the time they recorded Living Things and this album, the band collaborated with EDM artist Steve Aoki to record "A Light That Never Comes" and began work on a track later released under the title "Darker Than Blood" on Steve Aoki's 2015 album, Neon Future II. Mike Shinoda also helped Austin Carlile writing "Feels Like Forever" for the Of Mice & Men album Restoring Force.

The album name comes from the big picture of wanting. The band was originally going with the title "Carnivores", but instead they looked at the big picture: carnivores is a state of mind that is not about making a decision; carnivores are carnivores. Being a carnivore, you attack because you need to. A hunting party is an intentional gathering to kill. Chester claimed that, "With 'Carnivores' you don't have to explain, 'The Hunting Party' you kinda have to explain." The aesthetic of the name was a large part of how they decided on the cover. Joe's direction of the art helped set the dynamic of the name, as well.

Writing for The Hunting Party began in May 2013, right around the time the band was preparing the Living Things remix album, Recharged. This is the first album since Meteora to not feature Rick Rubin as producer, and the first album in which Mike Shinoda is credited with being the producer (as well as Brad Delson). The band also experienced a change of setting whilst recording this album, moving operations to Larrabee Sound Studios in Los Angeles, California instead of long-time recording space NRG Studios, also in Los Angeles. The band also worked in EastWest Studios, in Hollywood, California, mainly recording percussion and drums there.

In the earliest stages of recording, the band was writing pop rock music, akin to "Burn It Down" and "New Divide". Somewhere in the process, Mike had a change of heart. He wanted to make something heavier. He has commented on the weak impact of the current rock scene and wanted to reinvigorate the genre, bringing back the 1990s influence to the radio. He played a random riff on guitar to spark the diverging of the sound of the album, and that riff eventually became "Guilty All The Same". This song and "Mark The Graves" were the first two songs written for the album. The writing process for The Hunting Party was also drastically different than the previous albums. The band would play and record the entire song at once rather than recording small bits individually to get a live energy into the performance.

The Hunting Party sees the band take a heavy rock influence from the 1990s rock scene. It is almost a complete 180-degree turn from their previous effort, Living Things, in that the electronics are stripped from the forefront and replaced with heavy guitars and driving drums. Many songs on the album feature guitar solos, which Brad would typically shy away from. In an interview with MusicRadar, Brad spoke about the abundance of guitar solos, and how they found their way onto The Hunting Party: "There’s a lot of guitar solos on the album! And this is from someone who was quoted early on as saying I hated them. Not that I hated them as a listener; I just don’t want to play any; I shirked guitar solos. Early on, I felt as though the songs we were making aesthetically didn’t want them. This new batch of songs, to me, always want solos. I feel like every song has one." Rob Bourdon also pushed himself on this album, performing some of his most impressive drum work on this album. Mike spoke about how hard Rob pushed himself in an interview with Q Magazine: "Rob was killing himself. He played 10 hours a day for seven days straight and blew his back. He had to see a chiropractor."

The album is also the first to feature major collaborators: "All For Nothing" featured Page Hamilton from Helmet, "Guilty All The Same" featured hip-hop legend Rakim, "Rebellion" featured System Of A Down guitarist Daron Malakian, and "Drawbar" featured Rage Against The Machine and Audioslave guitarist Tom Morello. It began like this: "Mike had written this chorus and sang it, and his voice had this tone, and it was unlike anything I'd heard from him before. And I was like, "Dude this is crazy, this sounds like a Helmet song! It's cool!" And we were like, "Dude, why don't we see if we can get like Page in here?" You know? And if that's why the song says it's feeling like it should be, then why don't we just go straight to the source," as Chester stated in an interview with 3News. Ethan Mates, long-time Linkin Park mixer, gave Mike contact information for Rakim, as Mates had worked with him before. Rakim drove from New York City to Los Angeles (due to a fear of flying), playing shows along the way, to collaborate with Linkin Park.

Composition

The Hunting Party sees the band returning to heavier, more guitar-oriented music after the heavily electronic outings of A Thousand Suns and Living Things. They were inspired by bands from the 1990s rock and punk scene and wanted to bring that kind of music back to radio, as revealed by Mike Shinoda. The band also got the opportunity to work with some legendary figures in the rock and hip-hop scene, like Tom Morello and Rakim. Working with someone like Morello was a drastic departure from Linkin Park's typical method of writing songs. Morello introduced a more jam-oriented style of writing that was relatively foreign to the group.

Guitarist Brad Delson, too, stepped out of his comfort zone a bit on The Hunting Party, recording more guitar solos than ever before for the album. Despite his prior aversion to recording more flashy guitar playing, Delson ultimately decided the songs for The Hunting Party needed guitar solos in them, whereas the band's older material did not quite warrant more advanced guitar playing.

On a May 11, 2020, stream, Mike mentioned some bands he was listenening at the time, "I was really into some specific heavier bands, hardcore bands. They weren't all part of one genre, it'd be like Helmet, Bobby Hundreds got me on to Gorilla Biscuits, Inside Out, there's a band called Gallows... the record where Andy Wallace mixed it, ah, that opening song that Riverbank song... the way they mixed it, brutal, in the best way. I was listening to Gojira a little bit."

Promotion

On February 3, 2014, Mike Shinoda posted an update on his blog, revealing the band was deep in the process of writing and recording the album that would become The Hunting Party, mentioning the band's experimentation and openness to free form jamming. A month later, on March 3, Linkin Park uploaded a 22 second teaser of the opening guitar riff of "Guilty All The Same" that showed a notepad with "The Hunting Party 6.14" written on it. That same day, "Guilty All The Same" was added to the BMI repertoire. The next day, Linkin Park announced the Carnivores Tour in August and September with 30 Seconds to Mars and AFI. On March 5, the song "Guilty All The Same" was released through Shazam as The Hunting Party's first single. The lyric video for the track was uploaded to Linkin Park's YouTube channel a few days later, on March 7. The official music video for "Guilty All The Same", a collaboration with Microsoft and their game, Project Spark, was released at the end of the month, on March 25.

Chester Bennington said that "GATS was too ROCK for radio" and the band knew from the beginning the album wouldn't sell well worldwide but did it anyway because they "wanted our fans who love heavy music to be happy."

On April 7, Mike Shinoda hosted a listening party at MSR Studios in New York City, where the album title, The Hunting Party, and five song names were revealed, "Keys To The Kingdom", "All For Nothing", "The Wastelands", "Until It's Gone", and "Rebellion". Over the next month, song reviews of the five songs were released by a few music outlets, including Rolling Stone, Loudwire, and Altwire. On May 5, "Until It's Gone" was debuted on Zane Lowe's radio show, who had also debuted the songs "Lies Greed Misery" and "The Catalyst". The song's lyric video was released at the same time. A day later, Linkin Park launched official pre-orders for The Hunting Party on their website. An additional DVD performance of the band's live show in Monterrey, Mexico was offered for international orders.

On May 28, a teaser of "Wastelands" was uploaded to Linkin Park's YouTube channel to help promote UFC 174. The song was intended to be debuted by Ian Camfield on XFM radio, but Mike threw out CDs of the song at their Rock In Rio performance a few days ahead of the premiere. Its lyric video was released the same day as the intended release date. Only two days later, "Rebellion" was released and a lyric video was uploaded to Linkin Park's YouTube channel. That week, listening sessions for LP Underground members were announced around the world, including Mexico, New York, Germany, and Russia. On June 8, "Final Masquerade" was released through a stream on MTV. The song's lyric video was released a day later. That same day, fans could stream The Hunting Party in full through iTunes.

The official music video for "Until It's Gone" was released on June 12. A video for "Wastelands", done with the UFC, was released on June 25, featuring clips of a UFC match and Linkin Park's performance of Wastelands at Rock In Rio. A month later, on July 29, the music video for "Final Masquerade", directed by Mark Pellington, was released. The video version of the song included an extended intro and outro. On August 12, Linkin Park released the a cappellas and instrumentals of The Hunting Party, just as they did with their previous album, Living Things. Another video for "Wastelands", done in collaboration with IAVA, was released to IAVA's YouTube channel on September 5.

Reception

Critical Reception

The Hunting Party received generally positive reviews upon its release. On the review aggregation site, Metacritic, the album received a 65, indicating "generally favorable reviews". Stephen Thomas Erlewine of AllMusic gave the album three and a half stars, stating "Reconnecting with the past is a standard move for a heavy band 15 years into its career, but The Hunting Party is effectively aggressive, partially due to how far into the ether Linkin Park strayed on Living Things and, especially, A Thousand Suns." In a review for Loudwire, Chad Childer praised the record's closing run of tracks, claiming "While Linkin Park unveiled several songs ahead of its release, those listening to The Hunting Party for first time will find the disc at its most triumphant during its final stretch, as tracks like "Rebellion", "Mark The Graves", "Final Masquerade" and "A Line In The Sand" provide a powerful finish to a rock-solid effort." He also mentioned the guest appearances of Daron Malakian and Page Hamilton on "Rebellion" and "All For Nothing", respectively, as highlights. Dab Epstein, writing for Revolver, gave the album four stars, and said " The Hunting Party is inspiring proof that bands don't have to get softer as they grow older--but can, in fact, do the very opposite."

In a more critical review, Dominick Suzanne-Mayer from Consequence of Sound claimed the album is nothing more than "the sound of a band with long-term tenure trying to find its place in modern rock, but its experiments seem more like an attempt to fling every trend from the past decade at the wall to see what might constitute a new direction" and cited "Rebellion" as "the most K-Mart version of a SOAD song possible." NME's David Renshaw gave the album a 6 out of 10, citing Tom Morello's performance on "Drawbar" as a disappointment and calling "War" and "Wastelands" examples of "a tumult of expensive-sounding noise", but he praised Malakian's work on "Rebellion".

Chart Performance

The Hunting Party sold 110,000 copies in the United States during its first week, placing it at #3 on the Billboard 200 charts, behind Lana Del Rey's Ultraviolence and Sam Smith's In The Lonely Hour. This makes it the first studio album since Hybrid Theory to not earn the #1 spot on the chart. It did, however, peak at #1 on the US rock, alternative, and hard rock charts, as well as in 7 other countries, including Germany.

Awards

The Hunting Party was nominated for "2014 Best Rock Album of the Year" by Loudwire, but wound up barely losing to Islander's album, Violence & Destruction. Despite that, though, the album did wind up placing higher on Loudwire's "20 Best Rock Albums of 2014" list, with The Hunting Party placing 19th. "Rebellion" was also nominated for "2014 Best Rock Song of the Year", but also lost.

The album placed on a few end of the year lists from other publications as well. Revolver ranked the album the fourth best album of 2014, significantly higher than it ranked the album part-way through the year, where it was ranked number 20. Kerrang also placed the album on their end-of-year list, placing number 36 on their "Top 50 Rock Albums of 2014" list.
