they did a live show with their new singer here CW for photosensitivity in a few parts
I found a YouTube link in your post. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I just listened to the Emptiness Machine, it’s pretty good. I haven’t listened to Linkin Park since the tragedy and it feels weird and a bit sad to go back to them. But I like the song, and I’m glad they went with a female singer, it feels more like he wasn’t replaced but just added to. And I’ve always liked bands that combine female and male singers, Eternal Idol is one of my favorites in that regard. But yeah, I like the song, can’t wait to hear the whole album.
Edit: just started watching a bit of that live video, really emotional hearing them start up somewhere I belong, that’s why I haven’t listened to them since it happened. I’ll go back to it a bit later.
Definitely think bringing on someone who “sounds like Chester” would have been a big mistake and seen (probably rightly) as a cash grab by many people. I like the idea of this being a continuation and not a replacement.
“From zero” is right. Why the hell would someone listen to them if not for Chester? The guy who sounds like they let their cousin try rapping?
Tbh was excited… U till I found out she’s very much a Scientologist and was openly supporting Danny Masterson through his court case. Mixed feelings for sure.
Is there proof of that other than the forum post referencing the ex-scientologist from another band? I thought the list of names who signed in support of him was public, so would have expected that sort of information to be easy to find.
EDIT: She doesn’t appear to have written a letter, which doesn’t mean she didn’t support him, but I’m not really finding anything that says otherwise or that she’s still involved with the church.
