Linkin Park

Linkin Park will celebrate two decades of their landmark sophomore LP, Meteora, with Meteora 20th Anniversary Edition, arriving on April 7th. It will include an unreleased song appropriately titled "Lost" featuring the late Chester Bennington. It was unearthed as the band was digging through hard drives for what would become the new collection. 

"Finding 'Lost' was like finding a favorite photo you had forgotten you’d taken, like it was waiting for the right moment to reveal itself,” said Linkin Park's Mike Shinoda. “For years, fans have been asking us to release something with Chester’s voice, and I’m thrilled we’ve been able to make that happen in such a special way. I think they’re going to be floored when they hear and see all the incredible unreleased songs and video footage in Meteora|20."

“Lost” harnesses the uncontainable energy of Linkin Park into an anthemic catharsis catapulted by Chester’s simultaneously vulnerable and vital vocals. Moments of intimacy bleed into an irresistible refrain, backed by a robust riff under the glow of neon keys. Linkin Park has continued to expand their social presence, and made their debut on TikTok to tease the release. 

The Limited Edition Super Deluxe Box Set boasts six additional unreleased songs, plus demos, b-sides, live shows, and never-before-seen behind-the-scenes footage on five LPs [Meteora (1 LP), Live in Texas (2 LP) – for the first time on vinyl – , and the previously unreleased Live in Nottingham 2003 (2 LP)], four CDs [Meteora (1 CD), LPU Rarities 2.0 (1 CD), Live Rarities 2003-2004 (1 CD), and Lost Demos (1 CD)], and three DVDs, including four previously unreleased concerts [The Making of Meteora/The Art of Meteora/Work In Progress (1 DVD), Veterans Stadium (2003), Live in Seoul (2003) (1DVD), and Live In Manila (2004), Live in Denver – Projekt Revolution 2004 (1 DVD). It also includes a 40-page book, 36” x 24” poster, litho, sticker sheet, stencil, and hi-res download card. 

Meanwhile, the Deluxe Vinyl Box Set consists of four LPs [Meteora (1 LP), LPU Rarities 2.0 (2 LP), and Live Rarities 2003-2004 (1 LP)].
