Linkin Park has revealed plans for a 'From Zero' concert film set to debut in cinemas next year. The recently reformed nu-metal band, now fronted by vocalist Emily Armstrong, staged a performance in São Paulo, Brazil, to introduce their new album 'From Zero'. The band has confirmed that this concert, which was also streamed live on Brazilian TV channel Multishow, will be the centerpiece of a live documentary. A release date for the film has not yet been disclosed.
The announcement of the film coincides with the release of their eighth album, marking the first without original vocalist Chester Bennington, who passed away in 2017. In our review of 'From Zero', we noted: 'The results are mixed. While there's a nostalgic appeal in hearing new songs that pay homage to the band's heyday, it's not a mere rehash. For this, co-lead vocalist Mike Shinoda and the band deserve credit. Armstrong, in particular, delivers a powerful performance, echoing Bennington's ability to switch between intense screams and melodic wailing. Her vocal inflections and belts on certain tracks even resemble his, without ever descending into imitation, demonstrating that her addition to the band was a shrewd artistic move. However, the tracklisting on 'From Zero' has an uneven dynamic: for every anthemic hit, there's a less successful track.' Read our full review here.
The news of the concert film comes shortly after the band announced a world tour for 2025. The tour will kick off in Mexico City on January 31 and will include European stops in Berlin, Bern, Milan, London, and Paris during the summer. Here are the European dates for Linkin Park's World Tour 2025: June 2025, July 2025.
