    Linkin Park just finished their show in Hamburg, Germany where they debuted a new song, Heavy Is the Crown, from their upcoming new album From Zero. You can listen to the song below, thankfully filmed by members of the German crowd.


    Heavy Is the Crown is also heavily rumoured to be the League of Legends Worlds 2024 anthem. More info about that in this thread over here.

    What do you think of the song? Come and discuss in our forums.

    Holy shit that was so good! Sounds a bit like Muse but with a strong LP DNA intact. Nice choice for a single and for a crossover project!

    This may be a hot take to some but I am so happy that nu-metal Linkin Park is back. Love good sounding nu-metal. Dropout Kings, Fever 333, and now Linkin Park holding down modern nu-metal :headbang:

    This is a nice change of pace from The Emptiness Machine. And as @The Free Element said, the LP DNA is intact here. The rap verses, the little Faint-esque synth in the background, hard ass chorus, scream, etc. It’s gonna be a banger for sure

    THIS IS WHAT YOU'VE ASKED FOR! :cocainefan:

    Emily, my girl...that was amazing!! Another great song with another catchy chorus.

    This comeback has surpassed any expectations I've had for the future of the band. I'm beyond excited. I'm loving this new era!

    I think we will be getting a lot of future classics of the band in this album.

    What is this, Scientology's replacement for mental health?

    Song is dope. Can definitely see new generation AMVs with this in the background.

    I love your reactions but at the same time I don't want to spoil the song until release, should I? :lol:

    Nu-metal af, but still sounds kind fresh (love the chorus especially). Gives me hope for more variety in the album.

    It's gonna come out in 2 days, if you want to wait for a studio version first you're well within your rights to do so.

    Id probably wait for the official release (this Tuesday?) I think it’s worth listening to, but then again, I like to lie to myself that this will be the last song I listen to before the album drops so…:lol:

    Do you mean until the album releases or the song? If you mean the album, just listen to it now. If you mean the song, just listen to it now!

    Two days? Nah I'll wait then!

    I meant the song, but since it was clarified it would come out in two days I'll just wait it out. But y'all got me excited already!

    Holy cow. There is absolutely no way this just happened. No. F*cking. Way.

    I'm happy.

    And that scream in the bridge. I can't even put into words how she blew the mind of the entire audience at that exact moment.

    Not gonna lie, I had hoped Heavy is the Crown was gonna be a deeper song about the weight of performing in Chester's shadow.

    But this... this also fucks.

    Just in the video you can hear how loud people were, actually being there must've been INSANE. She's so good!

    I love that we're seemingly getting another heavy record that harkens a bit back to their first two records. Obviously I haven't heard the album yet, but it kind of feels like this album is going to be what The Hunting Party attempted being. I'm so pumped.
