The band has quietly updated their web store with 6 new pairs of socks and a new heat-changing From Zero mug.

Wow that's awesome. Hopefully that's also what is shown in theaters with the concert.

2026 seems like a great year for China, India, Australia, New Zealand, and another Europe run since they are in such high demand there compared to the rest of the world. All of that seems really doable with giving them more downtime than 2025, allowing time for them to relax and write music. Just three outings like that would take 1/4 of the year time-wise, if that long.

I'm relieved that Mike knows Australia exists! There were so close and yet so far!

the crew on Brazil said it was a documentary, they did interviews, recorded some of the listening parties, made people sign releases, etc.

6 is quite generous and fine with me! That’s why I’m going to both nights in Boston this Summer, hoping to hear as many “From Zero” tracks as possible.

Mike was pointing at you in “You’re already on that list” hehehe

yeah thats a pretty good idea that will never happen. Not sure why the band doesnt like playing any album front to back,not even in their early days.. not sure in which show they played HT in full but it wasn't in order. When they did it at Download 2014 they were forced $$$ it wasnt a natural move. 6 songs of the new album will be the max that you will get to listen at any show.

I’m 100% in favor of dropping Crawling for Blackout.

"Mike slamming Chester's legacy in new fan chat" Really cool of him to do that. I'm happy they are happy!

Brilliant song. The song can have many point of views, which makes it even more awesome. One that I have is about Chester and the horrific insident he has been through (sexual abuse). "Flashing your favorite point of view I know you're waiting in the distance - (the predator creeping up closely) Just like you always do Just like you always do Already pulling me in - (manipulating, sweet talking) Already under my skin - (literally under his skin) And I know exactly how this ends I let you cut me open, just to watch me bleed - (he allows the abuse) Gave up who I am for who you wanted me to be Don't know why I'm hoping for what I won't receive - (hoping for it to stop but it never does, hoping for better treatment) Falling for the promise of the emptiness machine" - (the predator is a empty shell/machine)

Thank you for the summary! I’m old and don’t understand discord haha. So, so happy that Mike gave love to the new songs. Seems like almost every band I know sticks to the hits and the staples, and only tosses in a couple new tracks when you go to the show. I’d love to see the entire FROM ZERO album - even in spread across 2 nights in the markets where they play back to back - because why not? It’s only 30 minutes of a 2 hour show.

Blackout its way more interesting and difficult than many songs probably more challenging for Emily than any other song

Mike hopped on Discord on the 19th of February for the first time in a few months and offered a few interesting bits of information for fans. He stayed in the chat about an hour and a half. Highlights are below, in order: Asked by a fan about Linkin Park's stage being so tall in Brazil, he had a series of messages saying: "I think it was because it was a big crowd, like 60,000 or something", "The stage was enormous. It took forever to walk down any of the catwalks", " Yeah, the production team decided to make the whole thing bigger. It’s going to be fun to do some variety this year. Some big stages in Europe. Some arena stages (we play in the middle, like 2024) in the US later this year", All the stage layouts are good, to me", "We don’t usually make the stages super high off the ground, but in some countries that’s what they recommend (or it’s what they have to do)", and "Might be “standard” materials, might be available stage materials, might be that it needs to be tall because of what goes under it, might be safety. I’m not really sure." In response to a meme about incorrect lyrics for 'Good Things Go' on Twitter, Mike said: Someone said that every performance Chester did live was perfect, to which Mike said, "lol yeah totally" and elaborated: and The chat shifted to comments on Linkin Park performing live, and someone asked jokingly if the band would perform upside down if they played in Australia. Along with a few other comments on Australia, Mike chimed in: He got on the topic of song requests in the chat, with people asking for their favorite song: He added he isn't a hater of Taylor Swift and he saw the Eras tour which was great, he ran into Munky from Korn the other day at Starbucks and says he doesn't know him well but that he's a good dude, and says he likes Poppy: "I like Poppy. I’ve known about her since way back when she did the weird youtube stuff. that was great" About other One More Light songs in the show besides 'Friendly Fire': He said the show setlist is a mix of fan favorites + band favorites. He joked about cutting Crawling and adding Blackout: He concluded by saying Emily likes both Blackout and Lies Greed Misery: Source: Discord [From:MikeShinoda]

Thoughts about my video ?

Just a small dot man this time i didn't appear I only appeared in the 2015 LPTV haha

where are you in the video man!?

Is a documentary confirmed? Have only seen rumors on that and nothing concrete.

It’s so good seeing the band having fun again.

Damn the Monterrey part was very short lol I expected more since it said part 1 Isn't it weird to call it part 1? Since the world tour its very long lol

First episode showing behind the scenes of the World Tour 2025.

FYI, this is incorrect. Not sure why it's on Linkinpedia. "Forgotten" does not use any samples from "Change the Beat (Female Version)," and that WhoSampled entry is incorrect. Both TGSB (which has the actual "woo-hah" sample) and the leaked multitracks of the song clearly show these are not at all related. You can also clearly hear a lack of vocoder on the "Forgotten" sample (the end of CTB is vocoded). If that sample is related to anything, it's "Woo-Hah! Got You All in Check" by Busta Rhymes or the song that inspired that song, "8th Wonder" by the Sugarhill Gang. Could be a nod to one or both of those tracks, as I've played with the vocal samples from those songs on battle break records and the a cappella versions, and it doesn't sound like a direct sample. For demonstrative purposes, here are some five-minute takes I did with both samples, scratching to show the difference: https://vocaroo.com/1obwspP6Lyx5

They played Michelle Branch’s Everywhere as their walk in music because Michelle has Indonesian ancestry

the first concert + the extra songs for the second concert and you have the best dvd ever... but they are also making a full documentary so I don't know how will that work

They should have released the whole show on their YouTube channel or have the band audio mix on the TV broadcast
