Minutes to Midnight is the third studio album by American rock band Linkin Park, released on May 14, 2007 through Warner Bros. Records. The album has been certified double platinum in the United States[14] and shipped over 3.3 million copies worldwide in its first four weeks of release.[15] It is their first studio album with a Parental Advisory label.
The album debuted at number one in the United States[16] and in 15 other countries, including the United Kingdom and Canada, around the world.[17] In the United States, the album had the biggest first week sales of 2007 at the time, with 625,000 albums sold. The album has sold more than 8 millions copies worldwide as of October, 2009.[18] Despite its commercial success, Minutes to Midnight received mostly mixed reviews from music critics.[19] Rolling Stone magazine named it the twenty-fifth best album of 2007.[20]
Release history
Minutes to Midnight was delayed several times before its release. First scheduled for Summer of 2006, then Fall of 2006, then early 2007, the album's release date was finally set for May 15, 2007. In an interview in September 2006, Shinoda explained: "When songs are pouring out you don't ever want to stop that. We already have over 100 roughs for songs. We've narrowed it down since but we're not ready to commit to those yet."
From the late stages of the demo sessions, the song "QWERTY", which was rumored to be on Minutes to Midnight, appeared on the Linkin Park Underground v6.0 CD on December 5, 2006 in both live and studio demo versions.
"This was a year-and-a-half long process of really hard work and experimentation in the studio that yielded about 150 rough songs," guitarist Brad Delson told Billboard.com. "Not only is this album incredibly diverse, but the depth of the material is really strong."[21]
The first single, "What I've Done", was released April 2, 2007, and debuted at number one on the United States Modern Rock chart.[22]
"Given Up", "What I've Done" and "No More Sorrow" made their live debut on April 28, 2007 in Berlin. Live performances of these three songs at the Sessions@AOL were released on AOL on May 5, 2007.[23]
On May 12, 2007, Linkin Park played "Bleed It Out" on Saturday Night Live, along with "What I've Done". Also, on May 18, 2007, Linkin Park appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, and again performed "What I've Done" and "Bleed It Out".
On January 16, 2008, "Valentine's Day" finally made its live debut in Hannover, Germany.

CD/DVD special editions
A CD/DVD Special Edition of Minutes to Midnight is available. It is designed to look like a book and contains a 24-page art book featuring the lyrics and conceptual art by artists who are friends with the band, along with pictures of the recording process. The cover of the North American version is grey, but in all other areas is black.
The bonus DVD contains the following:[24]
- Advanced Resolution PCM Stereo (48 kHz/24-bit) versions of all 12 tracks
- The Making of Minutes to Midnight Documentary
- The Making of "What I've Done"
- The "What I've Done" music video
The DVD-ROM features are:
- A PDF booklet with lyrics
- A flash widget and a toolkit.
- One Instant Messenger Buddy icon
- Exclusive DVD links to the official Linkin Park website, only accessible through the DVD
- Screensavers
- Wallpapers
The band also released a Super Fan Edition of the album which is only available on their online store. The only difference to the Special Edition was the book (being of 68 pages rather than 24). The DVD contains the same content.
There have been a number of problems with the DVD. Users have experienced problems accessing the DVD-ROM features, as certain computers may not be able to access the enhanced portion of this disc. In Canada, Warner Records recalled the CD/DVD edition due to the faulty DVD. The final release date for the repaired discs is yet to be known. As such orders are no longer available from the website BandMerch.com, nor is it available in stores. It is still available at some local Wal-Marts, yet the DVD is still faulty.
Clean edition (Censored Version)
There were non-Parental Advisory releases of both the regular album and the special edition album. The songs "Given Up", "Bleed It Out", and "Hands Held High" were slightly edited, by the removal of most profanities but not all. In Malaysia, clean edition for the album is available in digipak cover while the explicit edition available for the Tour Edition which features white slipcase cardboard cover and a standard jewel case.
Anniversary covers
A year after the release of Minutes to Midnight, the band released a number of different covers that they had considered for the final cover, and made them available for fans to use as the album art on iTunes. There are 10 available.
Sound
In an interview, lead singer Chester Bennington explained that the album is "a mix of punk, classic rock, and hip-hop standards" and that "Rick has brought more of a stripped down, classic-rock and hip-hop kind of feel."[25]
In another interview with Bennington, he stated "This time around, Mike Shinoda is singing a lot more. It may seem like he's not on the record, but he's doing a lot of the harmonies. He also sings a couple of songs alone. We're presenting ourselves in a different way."[26][27]
"We were looking back at the things that we had done in the past... and I think we just figured that we had exhausted that sound. It was easy for us to replicate, it was easy for other bands to replicate, and we just needed to move on," said Mike Shinoda.[28]
This is their first album to contain guitar solos (particularly "The Little Things Give You Away" and especially "In Pieces"). Unlike the two previous studio albums, Minutes to Midnight contains profanity and politically-charged lyrics.[29]
Mike Shinoda performs his rapping vocals on only two tracks, "Bleed It Out" and "Hands Held High". This is a significant decrease compared to the amount of rapping on previous albums. The rap vocals on "Hands Held High" are much closer styled to Mike Shinoda's side project Fort Minor than his traditional Linkin Park verses. All the songs that contain rap vocals also contain profanity, unlike their other records. Despite a decrease of Mike Shinoda as rapper, he has two solo lead songs on the record. He raps on "Hands Held High", which features background vocals from the entire band (the "men's choir" singing "Amen" is actually each member of the band) and he sings on "In Between". He also sings solo on the bonus track "No Roads Left" in a much more aggressive rock style than on "In Between" with no backing vocals from Bennington. "The Little Things Give You Away" and "Hands Held High" also feature singing vocals from Shinoda at the end.
All scratching elements by Joe Hahn that existed in the previous two studio albums are largely absent, except on the songs "What I've Done", "Wake", "The Little Things Give You Away", ""Valentine's Day" and "In Pieces". Hahn contributes more with programming, electronica, and other elements to many of the songs.
Guitarist Brad Delson experimented with an E-Bow when the band was piecing together "The Little Things Give You Away". The band decided not to use the effect for the solo in that song and instead ended up creating "No More Sorrow" out of the effect. In "Given Up" you can hear him jingling his keys while Mike Shinoda claps.[30]
The Church organ and military drumbeat on Hands Held High were originally to be used as the backdrop to melodic vocals, but Rubin recommended that the band try the opposite approach according to the album booklet. In live performances, Brad Delson plays keyboard on this song (the only song on which he does not play guitar.)
"Shadow of the Day" is one of two songs (the other being "No Roads Left") to have Bennington playing an instrument. In concert, Shinoda is generally playing the keyboard for this song, while Bennington plays rhythm guitar.
Leak
The album was leaked onto the internet just under two weeks before the actual album release, to which Mike Shinoda responded:[31]
| “ |
It couldn't be more exciting to give you all new music, especially after all the hard work we put into it. This album was almost a year and a half of experiments, mistakes, inspiration, and careful craftsmanship. We put everything we had into these songs, and want you to hear every second of it. I can't wait for you to absorb all the levels of meaning in the songs, and the layers of music, eventually forming your own ideas about what the songs mean to you.
At the same time, a leak leaves out some very important parts of this piece of work. We put months of creative energy into the ART of the record, in the booklet, special edition, and big book... Almost as long as it took to record Hybrid Theory. The album has amazing photos, lyrics, and notes about how the songs came together — it's the visual half of the record. On the other hand, the super-special-edition book is packed with exclusive images, stories of the making of the songs, gorgeous art, the CD and a DVD that tells the story, showing the actual moments of inspiration caught on camera. For me, it's almost hard to imagine anyone really experiencing this album without that part of it.
Even the song sequence alone is very important. It's WAY different to hear the songs in a random order than to listen to this record from beginning to end. At the very least, if you've already downloaded the songs, do us a huge favor and listen to them in the right order... It'll be way more rewarding.

Reception
Minutes to Midnight received generally mixed reviews, based on an aggregate score of 56/100 from Metacritic[19], with critics showing approval, disapproval and indifference in almost equal measure.
Rolling Stone gave Minutes to Midnight 4 out of 5 stars, stating that "most of Minutes is honed, metallic pop with a hip-hop stride and a wake-up kick"[11], and it was placed at 25th in their list of the Top 50 Albums of 2007.[32] IGN referred to it as "definitely a step in the right direction and a stepping stone for things to come".[33] In his review, About.com's Bill Lamb considered the album "an impressive achievement", and went on to write that "Linkin Park handles their explorations of a direction forward with impressive grace here".[5] Herald Sun writer Karen Tye gave it 3½ out of 4 stars and praised the band's new sound, "Who knew being a plain old rock band could suit Linkin Park so well?".[4] Despite commending the band for their ambition, The Guardian's Caroline Sullivan gave the album 3 out of 5 stars and perceived "their decision to stay roughly within the shrieky boundaries of their genre" as a weakness, while writing that "the sound still pivots on the interplay of walloping guitar chords and self-flagellating lyrics".[3]
On the other hand, Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic described the album's sound as "passé" and summed the band's effort up as "opting to create a muddled, colorless murk", giving it 2 out of 5 stars.[6] NME magazine's Dan Silver gave it a rating of 2/10, calling it the "sound of a band trying and failing to forge a new identity", and referring to the song "Hands Held High", a song about terrorist attacks and war, as "far and away the funniest thing you will hear all year".[9]
