Ok, ok I know that the video is now been out a month ... so I guess it's not "new". But as SongAlerts wasn't live then and the Album comes out next week, close enough.

Linkin Park has carved out a niche for themselves - Not quite Alt, not quite Rap, it could almost be Prog rock if that term wasn't derogatory. Anyway you cut it, it does work.

For me it's the distinctive vocal ... As soon as you hear it takes you back a few years when they first came on the scene. Maybe not as good as their earlier hits but still worth a spin or 2!

  

Linkin Park is an American rock band from Agoura Hills, California. Formed in 1996, the band rose to international fame with their debut album, Hybrid Theory, which was certified Diamond by the RIAA in 2005 and multi-platinum in several other countries.

Its following studio album, Meteora, continued the band's success, topping the Billboard 200 album chart in 2003, and was followed by extensive touring and charity work around the world.In 2003, MTV2 named Linkin Park the sixth greatest band of the music video era and the third best of the new millennium behind Oasis and Coldplay.

Billboard ranked Linkin Park No. 19 on the Best Artists of the Decade chart.
