There have been rumors for some time about the possibility that Linkin Park They could reunite with a new vocalist. But it seems that, today, the rumors are stronger than ever and those responsible for the group are considering appearances at major festivals.
Chester Bennington passed away in 2017 at the age of forty-one. Since then, Linkin Park have remained separate as a band, although rumors have arisen from time to time about a possible return with the group’s remaining members. According to Billboard, for the first time it seems that these rumors are serious. As for the band, over the years it has become one of the biggest names in alternative rock, with millions of fans all over the planet.
According to information, Linkin Park’s booking agency would now be evaluating offers for the group to participate in festivals with a line-up of which Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson and Dave Farrell they would be part. And what would happen to the vocalist position? Well, Billboard talks about Linkin Park trying to move forward with a female vocalist. What we know is that it would not be Amy reads (Evanescence) since she herself has denied those rumors. This possible return would be one of the most talked about, especially at a time when the main international events need big names to headline their posters.
Now we have to wait to see if this possible meeting finally becomes a certainty and who could be in charge of the voices. What we also know is that Linkin Park is clear, as Shinoda has commented on occasion, that they will not work with a hologram of Bennington. In any case, replacing him is complicated, since Bennington was one of the most personal vocalists with a more particular range of his generation.
Linkin Park just released the compilation “Papercuts”which includes up to twenty of the group’s hits, and also the “QWERTY EP”, with different versions of the theme. Last year they launched “Lost Demos”compilation of album demos “Meteor”and a twentieth anniversary edition of his own “Meteor”.
