Music Review: Linkin Park returns on 'From Zero,' their first album since Chester Bennington's death

Linkin Park, the inventive American rap-rock band who wove electronica into its heavy, melodic compositions, return with their first new album in seven years, “From Zero.” It’s a reference to their earliest days, when the band was known as Xero, a reclamation of their angry and ascendant sound and something else entirely. The band, now joined by new singer Emily Armstrong of the band Dead Sara and drummer Colin Brittain, still sound like Linkin Park. But there are notable differences, and controversy may mar its reach, writes The Associated Press Music Writer Maria Sherman in her review.
