Linkin Park, whose top-secret return was revealed earlier this month with a new album, singer, drummer and tour, have dropped a new single and video titled “Heavy Is the Crown” and new concert dates added in Dallas, Paris and Brazil.
The song, from their forthcoming album “From Zero” (due on Nov. 15), is the 2024 League of Legends World Championship Anthem, marking the band’s first collaboration with Riot Games. It follows the release earlier this month of the first single from the album, “The Emptiness Machine,” which the band performed on NBC’s “The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon.”
The group, which launched its arena tour in Los Angeles two weeks ago, has added three November dates to the “From Zero” tour, in Paris, Dallas, and São Paulo. Fan club exclusive presales start September 25 and general on-sales start September 27.
The group’s lineup is now Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson, Dave “Phoenix” Farrell, Joe Hahn, Emily Armstrong and Colin Brittain.
