LINKIN PARK unleashes a ferocious new single entitled “Up From The Bottom,” out now via Warner Records. The track sets the stage for the Deluxe Edition of their acclaimed album FROM ZERO, arriving on May 16. Notably, it includes three brand new songs, and an expanded physical edition will feature five additional live tracks captured during their inimitable live show.
LINKIN PARK wrote and recorded “Up From The Bottom” in between segments of their massive From Zero World Tour. Harnessing the energy of their 2024 live re-emergence, the track’s decisive piano refrain, distorted riffs, and propulsive drums lay the foundation for the singular vocal duo of Emily Armstrong and Mike Shinoda, singing “You keep me waiting down here so far below, staring up from the bottom, up from the bottom.”
The song climaxes with a surprising bridge of turntable scratches, 808s, and one of Shinoda’s most memorable rap verses–evoking their signature genre alchemy spiked with a rush of fresh inspiration.
Among the Deluxe Edition’s brand new material, “Let You Fade” is sure to be a fan favorite, with its crushing guitars, brutal drums, and full-hearted lyrics. The third track, “Unshatter,” came to life early in the FROM ZERO recording process, with Armstrong’s vocal fireworks mid-song hinting at “what was possible together,” as the band says.
