Seven years after Chester Bennington’s passing, Linkin Park returns with brand-new music.
After lead singer Chester Bennington passed away in 2017, Linkin Park has reformed with a new lineup and is releasing their first new song.
Along with returning members Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Phoenix, and Joe Hahn, the band debuted a livestream on Thursday featuring new singer Emily Armstrong and drummer Colin Brittain. Armstrong and Shinoda will alternate lead vocals. The new lineup revealed plans to release a new album, “From Zero,” and released a single, “The Emptiness Machine.” Nov. 15 is when it releases.
Thanks in part to Bennington’s vocals, the rock-rap group became one of the 2000s’ most commercially successful acts. Shortly after the release of the group’s last album, “One More Light,” he took his own life at the age of 41. Since then, Linkin Park has released several reissues, such as 20th anniversary versions of “Hybrid Theory,” “Meteora,” and this year’s release of “Papercuts,” a compilation of their entire career’s greatest hits.
“Xero was our original band name before Linkin Park. According to a statement Shinoda released to announce the album’s impending release, “This album title refers to both this humble beginning and the journey we’re currently undertaking.”
Armstrong plays in an alt-rock group. deceased Producer and songwriter Sara and Brittain has collaborated with a number of artists, including All Time Low, One OK Rock, and Papa Roach. Rob Bourdon, the band’s original drummer, “has decided to step away,” a representative for the group told The Associated Press. He takes his place.
“Our enjoyment of Emily and Colin’s exceptional abilities, their companionship, and the products we produced increased as we collaborated with them,” Shinoda remarked. With this new lineup and the vibrant, upbeat music we’ve made together, we feel incredibly empowered. We continue to explore new sonic touchpoints while fusing together the ones we’ve been known for.
The group also revealed their “From Zero World Tour,” which will include six arena performances in Bogotá, Colombia in November after five this month in Los Angeles, New York, Hamburg, Germany, London, and Seoul. The “From Zero” playlist:
