Liberation Transmission (2005—2007)
In 19 June 2005, founding member Mike Chiplin left the group to pursue other musical opportunities.[3] Since then, Mike Chiplin has joined another band called The Unsung. He has also opened up his own practice studio for young people to start bands.[7]
The remaining members began working on material for the next album. Due to the lengthy gap between Thefakesoundofprogress and Start Something, and the backlash that grew against the band because of it, the remaining band members stated in various interviews that they wanted to release their third album in early 2006.[8]
As with Start Something, the band wrote and recorded demo tracks for the album (with Ian Watkins playing the drums) in a UK recording studio before completing the album in America.[3]
Liberation Transmission was recorded in Hawaii, and saw the band work with Bob Rock. Drummer Josh Freese (of The Vandals and A Perfect Circle) recorded ten out of the twelve drum tracks for this album (Ilan Rubin recorded Everybody's Screaming and For All These Times Son, For All These Times).[9]
The band returned to their roots, playing a series of small venues across South Wales.[10] They also headlined Give it a Name, a two-day event with My Chemical Romance.[10] These shows featured the first live appearance of then-17 year-old Ilan Rubin on drums and the live premiere of songs Rooftops, A Town Called Hypocrisy and The New Transmission.[11]
The album itself was released on 26 June 2006 (27 June in the USA), and became the first Lostprophets album to reach number one in the UK album chart. [12] The album has seen the band adopt a more contemporary sound with far less emphasis on screaming than previous releases (with one exception being opening track "Everyday Combat". The band's comments in relation to the new album being similar to Thefakesoundofprogress are something that have garnered them criticism from long-term fans, with the general consensus being that Liberation Transmission is a far greater departure from the bands origins as a hard rock band than previous offering Start Something.[citation needed] [B](Watkins had previously stated that any band can create avant garde music, but it takes real talent to make good pop music that people will actually want to listen to while also staying true to yourself.)[/B]
 
not every band is changing music styles just for the sake of breaking into the mainstream. you didn't play the same type of aggressive music for the past 10 years, you would never know. seriously. you cant have all your records sounding the same.


Yes and that is why Avenged Sevenfold no longer screams as much.They said that they do not want to be the same band forever,they wanted to change,they wanted to try new stuff.When they were recording Waking The Fallen,they already decided the album would be half-sing-half-scream and the next album,which is City Of Evil,would be all singing.

I think that it's good that they did the albums how they did it.True,i may prefer Second Heartbeat to Unbound,but that doesn't mean that i will always prefer the screamo stuff to their more recent albums.You've got Beast And The Harlot,Bat Country,Afterlife,Seize The Day and many more.So i think their change is a good one,though it alienated some fans.
