Before Linkin Park, our first band name was Xero. This album title refers to both those humble beginnings and the journey we are currently on. Sonically and emotionally, it's about the past, present and future – embracing our signature sound, but young and full of life. It was done with a deep appreciation for our new and long-time teammates, our friends, our family and our fans. We're proud of what Linkin Park has become over the years and excited for the journey ahead.

The more we worked with Emily and Colin, the more we enjoyed their world-class talents, their company, and the things we created. We feel really strong with this new lineup and the vibrant and dynamic new music we've made together. We combine the sonic touchpoints we've been known for and continue to explore new ones.
