It’s been more than seven years since Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington was found dead in his California home at age 41. He had committed suicide. Now, a new chapter is beginning for the alternative rock band, complete with a new co-singer and some associated controversy. “This could work,” Emily Armstrong, the co-founder of alternative rock band Dead Sara, says of her latest job in a video on the band’s Instagram page. The news comes with the announcement that Linkin Park will also kick off a small world tour through November on Wednesday, hitting Los Angeles, New York and London, as well as Hamburg, Germany, Seoul, South Korea and Bogota, Colombia.

Armstrong will share vocal duties with returning band member Mike Shinoda, according to the AP. Other returning members of Linkin Park include guitarist Brad Delson, bassist Dave “Phoenix” Farrell and DJ Joe Hahn. Meanwhile, songwriter and producer Colin Brittain has been tapped as the band’s new drummer. The band’s latest album, From zerowith the single “The Emptiness Machine”, is scheduled to be released on November 15th.

Not all fans are so convinced by this new rule will Work that, however, cites the 38-year-old Armstrong’s obvious ties to Scientology – she was reportedly spotted at a major Church of Scientology event in Los Angeles in 2013 – and her alleged support of The wild seventies Actor Danny Masterson during his rape trial, according to the Mirror. “Chester wouldn’t have wanted that, I know that,” insisted one commenter on X. However, Shinoda says in a statement, via USA Today: “We feel really empowered by the new lineup and the vibrant and energetic new music we’ve made together.” (More stories from Linkin Park.)
