“Linkin Park’s recent decision to appoint Emily Armstrong as their new co-vocalist has ignited both excitement and controversy within the music community. Following a seven-year hiatus after the tragic passing of their original lead singer, Chester Bennington, the band announced their comeback with a new album titled From Zero and a world tour. While many fans have praised Armstrong’s powerful vocal abilities and her dynamic stage presence, her past associations have raised eyebrows. Specifically, allegations regarding her support for convicted rapist Danny Masterson and ties to the Church of Scientology have sparked backlash. In response, Armstrong clarified her stance against any form of abuse, emphasizing her disapproval of violence against women. This controversy has created a complex narrative around Linkin Park’s return, with some fans expressing concern over the new direction while others are eager to embrace the band’s evolution and honor Bennington’s legacy through Armstrong’s contributions.” (Perplexity)
