Linkin Park are back with new lead singer Emily Armstrong

In 2017, the world of rock music was shocked by the death of Chester Bennington, the frontman of Linkin Park. After that, the band suspended its active activities: concerts and releases stopped, and Mike Shinoda focused on solo projects. It seemed that the cult band had gone into the past forever, but at the end of 2024, the band made a loud return. On November 15, the new album From Zero was released, in which the voice of the new vocalist Emily Armstrong was heard for the first time.

Armstrong has long been known to fans of the rock scene. She is the co-founder and lead singer of the Californian band Dead Sara, which appeared in the mid-2000s. The musician began her career as a teenager: at 16, she recorded her first songs with her friend Siouxsie Madley, and soon devoted herself entirely to music. In 2008, Dead Sara released their debut EP, and real success came in 2011, when their single Weatherman was first played on radio stations. Their popularity was strengthened by performances at festivals, video game soundtracks, and invitations to appear on television.

With her powerful vocals and charismatic delivery, Emily Armstrong has received recognition as a bright representative of the new wave of alternative rock. Dead Sara never became a mainstream sensation, but earned a reputation as a band with a unique “live” sound, and Armstrong herself was noted by music critics as the owner of a “daring” and recognizable voice. It is this voice that now sounds in Linkin Park, opening a new chapter in the band's history.

The band's return has become one of the most anticipated events in the world of music in recent years. Linkin Park have proven that they are able to move forward, remaining true to their roots and at the same time finding a new sound.
