A Historic Comeback with New Lead Singer Emily Armstrong
The “From Zero World Tour” is more than just a celebration of new music and a return to live performances; it marks a new chapter in Linkin Park’s journey. Emily Armstrong joins Mike Shinoda as co-lead singer, filling the significant void left by the tragic loss of Chester Bennington in 2017. Armstrong, known for her raw vocal power and dynamic stage presence, has already made waves with the fanbase. Her recent debut with the band was met with positive feedback, with critics praising her energy and unique contributions to Linkin Park’s sound.
Linkin Park’s New Album: “From Zero”
Fans have eagerly awaited new music since the band’s hiatus following Bennington’s death, and 2025 sees the release of Linkin Park’s latest album, “From Zero.” The album is a poignant tribute to the past while also pushing forward into new musical territory. It combines elements of the classic Linkin Park sound—raw emotion, hard-hitting lyrics, and a mix of rap and rock—with fresh influences brought in by Armstrong’s addition.
The lead single, “Heavy Is the Crown,” dropped earlier this year, surprising fans with its introspective lyrics and explosive instrumentals. The single serves as a declaration of resilience, echoing Linkin Park’s legacy of tackling themes of struggle, empowerment, and personal growth.
The album itself is a deep exploration of change, resilience, and self-rediscovery. With tracks that range from anthemic rock to introspective ballads, “From Zero” takes listeners on a journey through the band’s evolution and their journey to redefine themselves after loss.

Linkin Park’s “From Zero World Tour” takes fans on a journey across multiple continents, showcasing the band’s international appeal.
