LIVING THINGS is available in both digital and physical formats, although no CD / DVD Digipak is available compared to their previous albums. The band have also touted LIVING THINGS as a foundation of all of the band's previous work, a collective use of all of the "tools in their toolbox" which allowed the band to be "comfortable in their skin" for the first time, by embracing both the past and present of Linkin Park. Mike Shinoda has described LIVING THINGS as a "firecracker" record filled with quick stand-out tracks stating that LIVING THINGS is "not a concept record. On the last few records we've had an interest in global issues and social issues and those things are still around, there are certainly traces of them, but this record is far more personal." The title of the album has been described by Mike Shinoda as a comment on the personal issues the album deals with: " We chose the album title 'Living Things' because it's more of a record about people. The album is once again co-produced by Mike Shinoda and Rick Rubin who also shared the responsibilities on their previous two albums, Minutes To Midnight (2007) and A Thousand Suns (2010). The album is the follow up to A Thousand Suns which saw a release in September 2010, making this the shortest turn around time for a Linkin Park album ever. LIVING THINGS is the fifth studio album from Linkin Park and is set for release June 26th (US) 25th (UK/EU) 22nd (AUS/NZ) 2012.
