Unshatter is just the better name for what the documentary is ostensibly about—the band coming back together after Chester's passing shattered Linkin Park. Calling it "Let You Fade" would feel almost disrespectful to me (if the film is indeed about what I assume it's about).

The band sounds awesome on this one.

I want to, but I have like five hundred other things I'm always working on.

Really enjoyed that version of Mike's medley.

Rakim is a hip-hop legend. Mike is pretty good, but far from the best.

I love The Rising Tied. Slip Out the Back, In Stereo, and Where'd You Go are my favorites from the album. The whole thing is so great, though. It's easily my favorite LP-adjacent release.

I would love to see them push the envelope on the heaviness. I think Emily has a great edge to her voice that shines on heavier songs. Getting something riffy and heavy like The Hunting Party with more polished production would be my dream for this iteration of the band.

That bridge seems like it would be a blast to experience live. Great performance! Why does the show page say the show was cancelled? Linkin Park Live - 2025.09.13 - Los Angeles, CA, United States - Linkinpedia Edit: Oh, never mind. I now see that's how the venue change was noted. Gotcha.

I'm also hoping we get videos for the deluxe tracks.

the band's ninth album

The moment Mike said, "It's good to see you again," was the first of several moments that put me in tears during the return show. It's impossible to quantify what this band means to me. Getting them back a year ago was a dream. The hype cycle for the album, including getting to attend the prerelease listening party, was something I never thought I'd get to experience with Linkin Park again. The fact they were not only back, but also had new music for us (and it was good) was miraculous. The Emptiness Machine is still in heavy rotation for me a year later and sits among my favorite Linkin Park songs. The world has accepted Emily as the new voice of the band, and they show no signs of slowing down any time soon. It's unfortunate financial troubles this year prevented me from attending my first Linkin Park show this summer, but I'll get my chance soon enough - something I thought impossible just over a year ago. I love this band - past, present, and future. Can't wait for LP9.

I wouldn't be surprised if Warner is preventing them from releasing music with the fan club. The box sets make money, and they likely want to save exclusive tracks for that.

I feel like the BTS videos for From Zero don't even do a particularly great job of hitting the "how" these songs came together, let alone the "why". I always like getting these looks into the studio (however they present them), but there's just something missing in the edit here.

I'm still in shock by how much Mike has improved as a vocalist. I was sure the verses in this song would be underwhelming live but wow.

I'm sure I've mentioned it elsewhere,, but part of me wonders if getting Brad in to work on Friendly Fire was what prompted him to rejoin to finish the album.
