LinkinMark

Were the tickets insanely priced? I imagine QOTSA pulled out because of the downsizing. Unfortunately the demand for LP in American arenas appears to be dwindling. Can we expect smaller shows in future? Or just more time between North American tours?

WOW. Emily on From The Inside 🔥🔥🔥

Gotta say I didn’t think LP could sell out Wembley Stadium but I’d always hoped they’d try for stadiums and here we are sold out after less than a day of sales. Epic

Does anyone have any info on how Newsletter pre-sale will work? I’m signed up on LPU (non paid) and linkinpark.com. Don’t wanna wait for general sale 🤣

When I lived in London I was spoiled for LP shows. Since moving to Canada I thought I’d be lucky if they came to Vancouver, but here we are! It will have been over 10 years by the time the show rolls around

Wow the crowd were on fire! It adds so much energy to the show

When Talinda shouted out AMG in her speech at the memorial show, I almost puked in my mouth.

I’ll come through with the hot take and say this song is bland as hell. Has next to no replay value for me like The Emptiness Machine does. The synth lead sounds like something you’d hear in a Meteora demo and not one that would make the final album. Nice hearing what Emily brings to the table though.

Holy shit Emily absolutely killed Keys To The Kingdom!

I think this song has to be up there with their catchiest choruses of all time. Mike is a beast of a songwriter.

Man having had a few days with this track, that first chorus from Emily packs such a punch. A great introduction to her. Awesome. Just puts a smile on my face

Seems the band are just going to furiously sweep this under the rug and wait until this all blows over. Not sure how to feel about this whole thing. They are the least controversial band in the world and are now steeped in controversy. It seems a major misstep to not have caught this earlier.

Given the recent post on the bands social media, seems Brad will not be touring with the band, but is still involved in songwriting and production.

I am back from the shadows! Honestly I think Emily was great. At the beginning I was getting a little frustrated with how much she would turn the mic towards the crowd but by the end I was really pleasantly surprised. What made me happiest today was just seeing Mike perform with a smile on his face. Dude just wants to make and play music with the band that he created, and his heart was ripped out 7 years ago. Here’s to a new chapter of Linkin Park. Also announcing arena shows just a couple of weeks out is so bizarre lol

I hear the second vocal, I just don't think it's Chester

I don't think Chester is in this song

I'm hearing "every battlefield you run from" not "path you can run from"

Wow what a nice surprise from a fans perspective. Catchy stuff. You really do wonder how this stuff gets out there though

Wow I’m really loving the album so far. I’m kinda mad that Crossing A Line was chosen to lead this album. It’s easily the most forgettable song and gives a bad representation of the rest of the album.

Mike has to do Watching As I Fall transitioning in to In Stereo surely

Every time I see the thread title I still can't believe that it's a real thing. Unfathomable.

I'm not sure there's any concrete confirmation that the band is continuing in their statement. "Building the future" could mean they might be discussing different possibilities for continuing but doesn't necessarily mean it'll work out. I hope they give it a shot.

I've attempted to listen to a Linkin Park song numerous times in the past month and I still can't make it through one. And then today I found Not Alone. Completely forgot this song existed. I listened to it all the way through and really listened to Chester's voice. It's still heartbreaking but in a small way it feels a little healing. I have it on repeat now. Miss you, CB <3

This is not sinking in. I'm not sure it's ever going to. I've been sobbing since I heard the news. I keep thinking it can't be true. Not Chester. He seems like he has such a positive outlook on life. I feel incredibly sad for him to know that he was suffering that much. I'm so sorry that you couldn't find peace here Chester. I hope you have found it now. We all just wish it was here with us. Thank you for the memories, Chester. I am eternally grateful. You saved so many lives with your voice and music. I'm sorry the favour couldn't be returned

Surely it has to be Invisible? That song screams of singleness!
