Linkin Park is back

Here I was about to make some attempt at a dramatic post with a title like "Linkin Park goes WOKE as their lead transitions into a WOMAN and joins the church of SCIENTOLOGY", but I'm literally half a day late

Anyway, in all honesty I think picking a woman in place of Chester was a smart choice, if not the only real way forward, as she'd be different enough to stand on her own and not have to endure constant comparisons to the guy she's replacing or questions whether she's imitating him too much.

That said, while I vibe with the new single (all I've heard so far from her), I can't help but feel that she doesn't sound much different from any other female rock singer out there. Sorta generic almost

I'm hopeful for now. Anyone who says what's the point of continuing LP without Chester isn't giving enough credit to Mike IMO.
