Linkin Park, the inventive American rap-rock band who wove electronica into its heavy, melodic compositions, return with their first new album in seven years, “From Zero.”

Talk about a welcome commercial reception. Linkin Park's Living Things debuted at No. 1 on the Billboard 200 when it emerged in June 2012. Twelve years after the success of Hybrid Theory, Linkin Park showed the world they were still the hottest rock band around.

With singles like “The Emptiness Machine” and “Heavy Is the Crown,” Linkin Park’s newest record breathes life into their discography after their 7-year hiatus.
