Metal Vocalist Reacts to the New Linkin Park | The Emptiness Machine

[@KtheScreamerOfficial]

Warner blocked this when I posted it, but WE GOT IT BACK! WEEEE! For Reaction skip to 3:08

[@ItsDetroit]

It feels fresh thats what makes it good

[@brendanmystery]

I don't know how true this is but I've heard that reactions to the live show where they announced their new members and their new album are not being blocked.

[@BrandonWestfall]

I was fine until you said "RIP Chester, we love you." Damn you for making me tear up.

[@paulchristie8452]

I think that was an F5 that Emily hit in the final chorus. Yes? I tried with failure to sing F5.

[@DynaOne]

Every Reaction is positive for marketing. so why should they strike you all?

[@davisonsarai7763]

So effing stoked on this new direction, it's surreal to see Emily just become the biggest woman in rock overnight. It's like a movie.

[@MagoGamer84]

❤She's amazing

[@dasturschloss8679]

Imagine being in her shoes. Like, yeah you're in some kind of successful band, but tomorrow you'll sing for Linkin Park. And in two weeks you'll tour the world standing infront of filled stadions, instant world famous. That's some movie career jump.

[@robboerman9378]

She deserves it too. If you can do this you are one of the great!! ❤

[@thinkingoutloud3757]

The way Mike explained how they decided on Emily makes it all make sense. Totally organic. They were just jamming with different people for fun, and they just gradually realized "You know, when we're making stuff with Emily... I really like what we're doing with her." They hadn't even really decided to continue on as "Linkin Park." They just liked making stuff with Emily, and the rest came later.

[@larka742]

it grew on them... over years

[@Tsuroerusu]

Also, Mike added that he realized "This sounds like Linkin Park". And as to the part you referenced, I think one thing people forget is that the personal chemistry between the band members is paramount to things working out. Even if you could find a person who sounded 100% indistinguishable from Chester Bennington, if he was not compatible in terms of the personal relationship to the other band members, then it would fail hard.

[@jacobcorcho2518]

She's an absolute goofball just like them too. SHE'S SO GREAT

[@thefallenangel53x]

After seeing 15+ Reactions and all of the hate Emily is getting, im so glad that someone finally understands that its not a replacement for Chester. Its a new era and Chester would be so proud. Linkin Park has always been my favorite band and im so happy for the future. Your reaction rocked, keep up the amazing work!

[@dbeargames7506]

She fucking killed this..... Presence and vocals..... Absolutely crushed it

[@juliocsar13]

She was born to be where she is. She's more Linkin Park than Linkin Park itself. Chester would be proud to be replaced by someone so incredible. Not that she needs the approval of any man. She has more Linkin Park than anyone could have imagined. What a perfect choice. I'm amazed.

[@CORVYX]

The irony of every single lyric in this song too. Applies perfectly to this whole shitstorm LP controversy. Excited for LP and so amped for this direction. Will always love and miss Chester but happy af for Emily Armstrong.

[@andreneves33]

For all the hatees out there this song is for you xD ahahahah

[@spolo123]

Yeah the irony I think is on purpose, to protect Emily. Like aluminum corrosion that gives an oxide protecting the aluminum underneath. Not like rust that eats it's way through instead cause it protects nothing

Your reaction is priceless. So good to see real fans react to the song.

[@MichaelFromTheAttic]

It's so freaking good. I can't believe they're back.

[@jackielegs7436]

I agree. I don’t think they could have chose a better person. Her raspiness and pronunciation mimic Chester the perfect amount. She sounds like Linkin Park. Wow.

[@KWCardDesign]

I couldn’t be happier with their choice in Emily!! The more I’ve listened to this song, the more I like it! The LP vibe and energy is there! It’s a new era for them and I’m excited to hear the new album! Chester will be forever missed!! But, I have a feeling he’s looking down smiling! #makechesterproud!

[@lumpstersmouse5471]

Not at all. Tossing around in his grave. Look up the lyrics to this song. Mike Shinoda has been friends with Emily for years. I do believe that she influenced him about Scientology. Child trafficking, s a, totally against professional mental health. The list goes on. Everything Chester opposed and sang about. Go search for Jamie Bennington’s reaction to Emily Armstrong. It is not good, and Mike and his wife have disconnected from him. She was spotted the other day with Bijou and several other “friends” in Danny Mastersons circle. Her mother is very high up in Scientology. Writes scripts for David Miscavidge and posts in the Freedom magazine. This is absolutely totally against anything Chester supported. She and her mother are both members of the Scientology hotels where child abuse and s a occur. Her apology was a joke. She is nothing more than a plant. Lisa Marie Presley was instructed to get Michael Jackson to join. How many of his fans would have followed him into it? Fortunately, he basically said the same thing Elvis said. They just want my money. True that.

[@KWCardDesign]

@@lumpstersmouse5471 you are entitled to your opinion. But, when it comes to Jaime, I think he has ulterior motives. When you are spreading conspiracies theories about your own father’s death and when Chester’s widow apparently filed a restraining order against him, just makes me feel that he has some internalized feelings he hasn’t come to terms with. Until Emily clears things up about the Scientology thing, it’s just all speculation at this point. Besides, she is an openly gay woman and that is frowned upon in Scientology 🤷🏻‍♀️

[@griechland]

@@lumpstersmouse5471 He sure is tossing around in his grave if he ever read that rant of yours. She was born into Scientology. If she ever publically stated anything negative about Scientology her parents would be forced to shun her, leaving her to never having contact with her parents again. And that thing with Danny Masterson. Can you claim to know everything about your friends? Every little dark secret they have? Are you prepared to be judged by all your friends actions? No, get off your high horse friend.

[@rubenllumihucci]

@@lumpstersmouse5471 OMG! What are you saying! Where do you get that Emily Armstrong is a Scientologist? Yes, I don't deny that she was born to Scientologist parents, but she is not because from a very young age she was influenced by rock, grunge, punk... all urban culture and above all because she discovered herself as a QUEER person from a very young age. LGBT people are not welcome in the Scientology sect, I don't know if you know this, to be part of that sect an LGBT must renounce themselves, accept that they are "sick" and on top of that, give large sums of money so that Scientology "rehabilitates" you, "heals" you from homosexuality. Keep believing in the narrative that has been created by the same ex-Scientologists such as Chrissie Carnell-Bixler, husband of Cedric Bixler-Zavala. They have deceived you into being an instrument of HATE against Emily. By the way, if you don't think Emily is QUEER, she is in a beautiful relationship with a great female model. And yes, I am a fucking Dead Sara fan!

Absolutely loved seeing your reaction and enthousiasm as a professional to the new LP single. Emily shouldered her new responsabilities with talent and courage imo. You can feel Chester's energy in her voice and she's got her own twists. LP deserves our trust and support after all they have given us 🖤

I’ve been down a reaction rabbit hole since this video released, yours was one of my favorite.

She is friggin awesome in this song.

[@destinybennett666]

So glad my favorite band is back! Linkin Park is the reason why I got into Death metal,Black metal,Grindcore etc. Chester is the reason why I scream. Emily has a great voice maybe she will scream too😊

[@DaVeO52]

"Feeling a little emotional" Is the most quoted reaction to watching this video across the YT space.

[@johnsinglet575]

Emotional is the universal reaction. Great pick in Emily!!

[@davidriddick82]

I am extremely happy, I am also emotional because like you, Chester was a huge part of my life, but they picked the right woman to continue to carry his amazing legacy forward, I believe it I am going to highly recommend you watch the interview on their KZbin channel with Zane Lowe, it explains a lot of how this came to be and it gives you a real in-depth conversation with everybody from the band and it is really an incredible watch

[@bloodswarms]

I enjoy that the lyrics of the song address the criticism of their deciding to continue. I also love Emily, and have since Dead Sara dropped their first video, and it's incredible that she gets to take it to a whole new level with Linkin Park. Powerful.

[@Nameless00Soul]

She sounds great and I'm excited to see where they go. Chester will never be replaced but his legacy will live on ❤

[@janee.c]

I totally agree K! Emily is amazing and I’m so happy Linkin Park is back. RIP Chester

[@bravo1495]

Lyrically, this could mean so many things, but I'm starting to feel like it was purposely written and released as the first single as a response in anticipation to the backlash that they probably all assumed would be coming from a portion of the internet. Or, it could be her disavowing the scientology thing. Or both. Or neither. Only her and Mike really know.

@@petainaja3753 When I first saw the headline that she had joined I was intrigued, but as soon as I heard the new song I was totally on board. Yes it's strange, and yes I still miss Chester, but her voice blends very well with Mike and the song speaks to me just as old Linkin Park and DeadSara songs do. I also love what Mike said about Chester's voice coming through the audience, she is not a replacement, just a new member and Chester is still in the band personified by the crowd.

You know what I love remember how when the runaways came out and Joan Jett and how they were received by male audiences ‘girls’ wanting to rock it’s just an unheard of thing… Watching this chick kick ass and then watching all of the reaction videos that are headed up by men who are absolutely delighted in her talent who have nothing but good things to say CRYING when she hits the scream sing…Seeing the reception and seeing how far we’ve come ( even if we will always have further to go) … I LOVE that. How it should be. She IS killer… no doubt. I’m just stoked about it in a broader context.

[@johnhawkins_twa]

nice reaction. and thanks for keeping an open mind. I think she's a great fit. mike's huge smile throughout the live stream says it all.

[@bighosnl]

I absolutely love your reaction. Also thanks for being a little based in all the controversy about the whole scientology stuff. The amount of cancelation attemps being done over the fact someone was born into a little bit of a shady religion and straight up giving someone shit even though she clearly doesnt live in line with a lot of these values of the religion (being gay publicly for example). As someone that grew up being scrutanized over the decisions my parents made and being judged by the label that was put on me from birth, I really appreciate it.

[@danielradina1330]

Emily is amazing !!!

I'm 55 so probably not the typical viewer. What's nice about being older is that life experience helps one separate the bullshit from what's truly valuable. I'm not aware of what the controversy is other than what I've seen/heard in a few comments and I'm not at all interested. All that matters to me is that a GREAT band is getting back on their feet with an awesome vocalist who I know nothing about other than I absolutely love her voice paired with LP. Also, K, I'm impressed with the intellect and attitude you presented in this vid enough to make me subscribe. You seem like a very cool person.

[@hostdreamer]

Hi, I just subscribed to your KZbin channel because I appreciate your expertise and today I found that your music sounds very musical. The reason I’m here is because I know your reactions and this was the first time you have shown Linkin Park with many emotions since "lost". I love people who can honestly show their feelings and today I see your reaction from Linkin Parks return in new format, to mention especially the Emily. I also saw your short video when you were accompanying the new song with Emily. After all the mostly positive reaction videos on the internet I am particularly impressed by a sentence of yours when you said: please be kind. Each of us has a past, but we should leave the past and look ahead. We should appreciate the many good things and if you are successful, you should give it to the artists heart-heartedly, actually I was not as close Linkin Park fan as many here, but I as a music lover have learned Linkin Park, since Emily is the new singer, the new era I like and the past with Chester I can hide well although I like some tracks of LP very much. I know since " Rammstein " also a very good metal singer who I had met on TV at a competition, the voice of her is similar to the voice of Emily only that this singer plays German music and they call her " Elli Berlin "

[@sandman1989]

no matter the person mike and the band pick people would find something against them also Chesters son coming out against her is something crazy yes Emily has a past but who doesn't and the whole scientology thing isn't a big deal to me. scientology is a cult but that can be said about all belief systems. LP is Mikes band so it all comes down to him and he and the band looked like they had so much fun on stage. really hope people give Emily a fair shot and she doesn't decide to leave because of all this. great reaction and sorry for the long post 🙂

[@Kova88]

She's wildfire! And I too don't think anyone can replace Chester, but fuck me sideways if I don't hear Chesters screams echo in hers... I think it's both phenomenal tribute to one of the greatest, and an explosive new start. Not gonna lie, they hit the nail, and they hit it hard.
