Watch Linkin Park debut blistering new song ‘Casualty’

Linkin Park have debuted a heavy new single called ‘Casualty’ from their upcoming album. Check out footage of the live rendition below.

The track comes from the band’s forthcoming comeback album ‘From Zero’, which will be their first since the passing of frontman Chester Bennington, and with new frontwoman Emily Armstrong. The record is set for release on Friday (November 15) and you can pre-order/pre-save here.

Linkin Park broke out the latest preview of the album while embarking on their ‘From Zero’ world tour, which included a stop at the Glove Life Field in Dallas, Texas on Friday night (November 8).

Titled ‘Casualty’, the song follows the previously released singles ‘Heavy Is The Crown’, ‘The Emptiness Machine’ and ‘Over Each Other’.

Introducing the song to the stage in Dallas – midway through their 28-song set – Mike Shinoda told fans: “If ever there was a time in a Linkin Park show to show us the biggest pit that you can [this is it].”

“Let me out, set me free / I know all the secrets you keep / I, I won’t be / I won’t be your casualty,” Armstrong roars in the chorus.

The introduction of the song in the set came shortly after Shinoda and Co. brought out Helmet’s Page Hamilton for a surprise appearance – performing ‘All For Nothing’ from Linkin Park’s ‘The Hunting Party’ live for the first time, according to Kerrang!.

Find footage of the show below.

The performance of the new track for the first time comes shortly after Shinoda opened up about the “culture” of the new Linkin Park line-up, and said it feels like the “best we’ve had”.

The band announced their comeback in September with a livestream event, where they revealed the addition of Emily Armstrong (formerly of Dead Sara) as their new co-vocalist. Drummer Colin Brittain joined the band too, following the departure of founding member Rob Bourdon. Founding guitarist Brad Delson is also absent from the group’s comeback tour, but is still working with them behind the scenes – including participating in the creation of new music.

The announcement of the new vocalist became divisive among fans after it emerged that she seemingly had ties to Scientology and convicted rapist Danny Masterson. Armstrong has since issued a statement “to clear the air”.

As they first embarked on their recent run of live shows, Shinoda explained that this version of Linkin Park was “not about erasing the past”. “We are thrilled to be back out here… it is about starting this new chapter into the future, and coming out here for each and every one of you,” he said.

Around the same time, Bennington’s mother admitted she felt “betrayed” by the new line-up. This was something Bennington’s son Jaime echoed too, having hit out at Shinoda for “betraying the trust” of Linkin Park fans.

Meanwhile, Shinoda has spoken about why Linkin Park chose to keep their band name for the relaunched line-up. He then said he is “not sure” if they will make new recordings of older songs that feature Bennington – who died in 2017.

In a statement, he wrote: “We feel really empowered with this new line-up and the vibrant and energised new music we’ve made together. We’re weaving together the sonic touchpoints we’ve been known for and still exploring new ones.”

Bennington’s widow Talinda has expressed her approval of Armstrong joining the band.
