LINKIN PARK shares visualizer for new song 'Unshatter'
28-04-2025
LINKIN PARK has shared an official visualizer for the band’s new single “Unshatter”. The track, along with the previously released new song “Up From The Bottom”, is taken from the deluxe edition of LINKIN PARK‘s comeback album, “From Zero”, due out May 16 via Warner.
Watch “Unshatter” below.
“Unshatter” and “Up From The Bottom” mark the band’s first new music since the release of the “From Zero” last November.
“From Zero (Deluxe Edition)” 2CD is a limited pressing. It features a four-panel softpak packaging with 16-page booklet and showcases three new songs, five live tracks recorded around the world and all new, expanded packaging.
The band comments: “‘Up From The Bottom’ was created in between tours this year, infused with the electricity of those first shows back after a long hiatus. ‘Let You Fade’ was a song that began during the ‘From Zero’ sessions but found its final shape in sessions after the album’s release. ‘Unshatter’ was an early track we made while recording ‘From Zero’; Emily‘s huge vocal in the bridge was one of the moments that gave us an indication of what was possible together.
“We are so grateful for the incredible reception to ‘From Zero’. This new chapter, our continuing journey, and the connection between the band and fans has been more than we could’ve hoped for. Thank you for listening.”

In an interview with Billboard about LINKIN PARK‘s comeback, Shinoda explained that drummer Rob Bourdon — who had founded the band with Mike and Brad — had decided to exit LP.
“Rob had said to us at a point, I guess it was a few years ago now, that he wanted to put some distance between himself and the band,” Shinoda said. “And we understood that — it was already apparent. He was starting to just show up less, be in less contact, and I know the fans noticed it too. The ‘Hybrid Theory’ re-release (in 2020) and ‘Papercuts’ release this April, he didn’t show up for anything. So for me, as a friend, that was sad, but at the same time, I want him to do whatever makes him happy, and obviously everybody wishes him the best.”
According to a press release, Shinoda, Delson, Farrell and Hahn “quietly began meeting up again in recent years” and “rather than ‘trying to restart the band,'” they worked with numerous musicians and “found a special kinship with Armstong and Brittain.”
Regarding the band’s new lineup and future plans, Shinoda said in a statement: “Before LINKIN PARK, our first band name was XERO. This album title refers to both this humble beginning and the journey we’re currently undertaking. Sonically and emotionally, it is about past, present, and future — embracing our signature sound, but new and full of life. It was made with a deep appreciation for our new and longtime bandmates, our friends, our family, and our fans. We are proud of what LINKIN PARK has become over the years, and excited about the journey ahead.”
“The Emptiness Machine” is said to “channel the DNA of LINKIN PARK.” Shinoda said the band feels “really empowered with this new lineup and the vibrant and energized new music we’ve made together,” adding that they are “weaving together the sonic touchpoints we’ve been known for and still exploring new ones.”
