  • Summary

  • In an unexpected turn of events, the band just reformed. Jason was tapped by the band to break the story.he can discuss the below items in addition to the book:: - Linkin Park is back, with a new album, new tour dates, new co-vocalist, and new collective outlook. Seven years after the passing of singer Chester Bennington, the band returned in September 2024 with new members Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain, arena tour dates, as well as a new studio album, From Zero, due out in November. - The unexpected announcement resulted in a wave of chatter - as well as some outcry about Emily, the lead singer of Dead Sara, joining the band amidst question marks about her past. Nevertheless, the immediate streaming boom for new single "The Emptiness Machine" and ticket demand for their first shows indicate a highly anticipated comeback. Linkin Park is one of the 21st century's most important rock bands. All it takes is one quick glance at the numbers-11 Top 40 hits on the Hot 100 and six No. 1 albums on the Billboard 200, over a dozen massive tours, 27 major award wins, more than 100 million records sold worldwide, over 30 million monthly Spotify listeners-to realize that when it comes to the metrics of music consumption and fandom, there's no bigger group in recent memory. And yet, despite their enduring legacy within rock, there has never been a full, comprehensive biography of Linkin Park-until now. In IT STARTS WITH ONE: The Legend and Legacy of Linkin Park, Billboard's executive director of music, Jason Lipshutz, chronicles the innovation and influence of this legendary band, from their early childhoods to the moment their paths crossed to the genesis of their iconic first album, Hybrid Theory, to everything that followed. Not only were they able to synthesize trends in pop and hip-hop amidst the post-grunge era and nu metal boom, then constantly reinvent their sound over multiple albums, Linkin Park's radically vulnerable lyrics also helped usher in a new era of artists (and fans) more open to discussing mental health and prioritizing inclusivity. Led by front men Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda, who balanced each other out artistically, Linkin Park never shied away from songs that put their issues front and center for the world to see and feel.
