Linkin Park Announce Tour and First Album Since Chester Bennington’s Death, Share New Song and Video: Watch

Linkin Park have announced their first new studio album since May 2017’s One More Light. The new album, From Zero, will come out on November 15 via Warner. The band has also shared a new song, “The Emptiness Machine,” which lands with a music video directed by Joe Hahn. Find it below.

From Zero is the first new Linkin Park album since the death, in July 2017, of lead singer Chester Bennington. The band still features original members Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, and Joe Hahn, and they’re now joined by new co-vocalist Emily Armstrong and new drummer Colin Brittain.

Linkin Park have not performed since playing a Bennington tribute show, at the Hollywood Bowl, October 2017. They will begin their From Zero World Tour next week. See the band’s schedule below.

Following Bennington’s death, Mike Shinoda released the solo albums Post Traumatic and Dropped Frames. He also won a Grammy Award for a remix of Deftones’ “Passenger.” Discussing the band’s new endeavor in a press release, Shinoda said:

Before Linkin Park, our first band name was Xero. This album title refers to both this humble beginning and the journey we’re currently undertaking. Sonically and emotionally, it is about past, present, and future—embracing our signature sound, but new and full of life. It was made with a deep appreciation for our new and longtime bandmates, our friends, our family, and our fans. We are proud of what Linkin Park has become over the years, and excited about the journey ahead.

He continued:

The more we worked with Emily and Colin, the more we enjoyed their world-class talents, their company, and the things we created. We feel really empowered with this new lineup and the vibrant and energized new music we’ve made together. We’re weaving together the sonic touch points we’ve been known for and still exploring new ones.
