The band Linkin Park is officially back in action after a 7-year hiatus, although surrounded by uncertainty due to the tragic death of vocalist Chester Bennington . On Thursday, September 5th, they held a comeback show titled From Zero , featuring the new members and therefore, new music.
The performance was shared on the band's social media, and fans were able to watch the live stream and meet Emily Armstrong , the new vocalist, and Colin Brittain, who will be playing drums.
A total of 14 songs were played at the show, starting with "The Emptiness Machine," a new track that introduced Emily as part of the band. This was followed by classics like "Somewhere I Belong" and "Crawling," including "Lying From You," which hadn't been played since 2013.
