    I don't know whether Linkin Park will return for the fourth instalment. I have no problems if they do, but I'd rather hear a new group/singer.

    Having recently heard Adele on this link (Full Version Of Adele's SKYFALL Theme Song) I'd like to think she'd be great to bring in, especially for singing an orchestral version of the TF theme song.

    Anyone got any other choices for the soundtrack?

    I LOVE Linkin Park and it would be great to see them come back but Adele would be cool a lot of her songs can fit with TF

    I like Linkin Park and they would be fine by me. Still, I watch movies for the motion picture part, not the title songs. ;)

    I wouldn't mind if Linkin Park come back, seen thema few times, good music; might be good to have a change, but if they did I wouldn't complain.

    I'd love LP to return. I wouldn't mind a rock/dubstep combo, like Korn's Narcissistic Cannibal sound.

    Anything too heavy or too pop-y will sound out of place I think.

    I suspect Linkin Park will be coming back. It's a routine thing with Bay's Transformers movies.

    Bay has decided to have Linkin Park in the last three, so there is no reason why he won't bring them back, even when their new album has been released this year.

    I agree. As long as Bay helms the movies, LP will be spearheading the soundtrack. After that, game on.

    Oh gosh, not Adele. Nooo way.

    I'd like Linkin Park to stay as long as Bay stays. It's kind of like a Bayverse tradition.

    I think stuff from Skrillex would be a good fit to appear at points in the film, but there shouldnt be a set band for the films to be honest.

    Well, it's not really like Linkin Park "does the soundtrack" anyway. Obviously they do the main featured song, but that doesn't constitute "the soundtrack". There's dozens of artists who have dozens of songs on the Bayformers soundtracks, not just Linkin Park. Now, if you're asking "Who should do the main featured song instead of Linkin Park?", then I understand what you're asking.

    And really, I'm indifferent. I'd prefer for Linkin Park to stay on for the main featured song, even if only for continuities sake. But in the end, I'm indifferent.

    Fair enough, these aren't OO7 flicks where a big name is brought on for the soundtrack, so I guess it doesn't matter. It appears Linkin Park is now affixed to TF, just like Stan Bush.

    But one day, the TF theme will be heard in a grand orchestral manner and sung by a great singer... please?

    Let Linkin Park come back, at least they can name their albums something instead of taking their age at the time and making that the name like Adele does, her songs a annoying and horrible, Rolling in the Deep sounds like a reject from the late 70's early 80's and I want her no where near Transformers. I say let Daft Punk do it if LP can't come back they did a great job on the TRON:Legacy Soundtrack, mixing their stuff with Jablonsky's would be a great listen.....

    Linkin Park has some pretty good music, and they could return. But if not them, maybe Jablonsky himself could do it. Many movies end with original music. Take Pirates of the Caribbean, for example. I love how they always play "He's a Pirate" in the end credits.

    It would have to be someone who's popular in the 15-30 age group with males, given the demographics the film targets, and an already-established artist to maximize cross-promotional opportunity and get a lot of radio and television airplay.

    That's still a lot of possibilities though.
