A Thousand Suns is the fourth studio album by Linkin Park, released on September 13, 2010, by Warner (Bros.) Records.It is a Concept Album that revolves around mass-scale human fears and social issues, namely nuclear warfare. It derives its title from the Bhagavad Gita as quoted and popularized in 1945 by J. Robert Oppenheimer's description of the atomic bomb, which likened its blast to "the radiance of a thousand suns". Clocking in at 47 minutes, it is Linkin Park's longest studio album to date.Following 2007's Minutes to Midnight, this album moves even further away from the band's Nu Metal roots to the point of metal being almost entirely absent. Instead, the album centers on electronic-based experimental and melodic Alternative Rock, with the addition of several atmospheric interludes to tie the songs together, some of them sampling speeches from the aforementioned Oppenheimer as well as Martin Luther King Jr. and activist Mario Savio. Although rapping is only slightly more prominent than on the previous album, this album makes Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda a Vocal Tag Team again, with Mike being a co-lead singer on many tracks. Tracklist: "The Requiem" (2:01) "The Radiance" (0:57) "Burning in the Skies" (4:13) "Empty Spaces" (0:18) "When They Come for Me" (4:53) "Robot Boy" (4:29) "Jornada Del Muerto" (1:34) "Waiting for the End" (3:51) "Blackout" (4:39) "Wretches and Kings" (4:10) "Wisdom, Justice, and Love" (1:39) "Iridescent" (4:56) "Fallout" (1:23) "The Catalyst" (5:47) "The Messenger" (3:01) Principal members:
