  • 'From Zero' marks LINKIN PARK's first full-length album since 'One More Light,' which was released in 2017, just before the tragic death of lead vocalist Chester Bennington.

  • The album features new singer Emily Armstrong and drummer Colin Brittain, alongside returning members Mike Shinoda, guitarist Brad Delson, bassist Dave 'Phoenix' Farrell, and DJ Joe Hahn.

  • Dave 'Phoenix' Farrell noted that the integration of new members Emily and Colin felt natural and energizing for the band.

  • Shinoda described the creative process for the album as complicated, emphasizing the importance of allowing things to happen organically over the past two years.

  • He added that the music evolved naturally, which contributed to the formation of the new lineup and the album's distinctive sound.

  • When discussing the album's sound, Shinoda stated it retains a strong LINKIN PARK 'DNA,' blending elements from the band's various eras.

  • LINKIN PARK announced their new lineup during a global livestream concert in Los Angeles in September 2024.

  • During concerts, guitarist Alex Feder is temporarily filling in for Delson.

  • At a recent concert in São Paulo, Brazil, LINKIN PARK revealed plans for a live documentary featuring footage from the performance, with a release date yet to be announced.

  • Looking ahead, the band is set to embark on a world tour starting in January 2025, with initial dates in Mexico, followed by Japan, and concluding in South America in November 2025.
