Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda recently called into BBC Radio 1's New Music Show with Jack Saunders a day ahead of the band's September 24 show in London earlier this week. You can listen to the full interview segment here, where it will remain available to listen to for about a year time of writing. In the fairly brisk 10-minute interview, Shinoda speaks with endlessly-energetic show host Jack Saunders about reconnecting with the Linkin Park fanbase through the band's new music releases and touring. He reflects on how Linkin Park's songs and live performances have consistently promoted catharsis and a sense of community for fans, and says he still considers this "part of the band's core DNA". Later on in the interview, Shinoda speaks about seeing the new Linkin Park album From Zero slowly come into focus while aimlessly creating music with his bandmates, and the challenge of moving forward with the band and making a public return. He lastly also touches on about bringing newer band members Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain into the Linkin Park fold, and the "constant evolution" of the chemistry within the band. Again, the whole interview is available to listen to on BBC Sounds for a limited time. Source: BBC Sounds via @Casualty
