In recent weeks, rumors have been swirling about the possibility of Linkin Park going on tour following the release of their highly anticipated new album. Fans have eagerly speculated that the legendary rock band, which has been relatively quiet since their 2017 album One More Light and the tragic passing of frontman Chester Bennington, might return to the stage in 2024. However, the band has now addressed these rumors in an official statement, clearing up any confusion and providing a more definitive outlook on their future plans.
The band took to social media to respond to the speculation, emphasizing that while they are excited about the upcoming release of their album, they are not currently planning a tour. “We are deeply touched by the love and support from our fans over the years,” the post read. “As much as we would love to perform live again, we are still focused on creating music that represents who we are today. Touring is a huge commitment, and we’re not quite ready to step back into that world yet.”
The band’s statement also mentioned their desire to take their time with their new music and ensure that it is a true reflection of their journey since Bennington’s passing. They noted that while the band has been working together in the studio, the primary focus is on creating music that honors their late bandmate and the legacy of their work.
Linkin Park’s last major tour was in 2017, following the release of One More Light. Since then, the band has been on hiatus, with members working on individual projects and collaborations. Despite the absence of live performances, the band’s fan base remains incredibly passionate, eagerly awaiting new music and any potential live shows in the future.
As for now, Linkin Park reassured fans that their forthcoming album, set for release in 2024, will be a deeply personal and meaningful project. The band encourages fans to continue supporting them as they navigate this new chapter, but for the moment, live performances are not in the cards. Fans can expect to hear more about the album’s release and other plans in the coming months.
While the news of no immediate tour might be a disappointment for some, Linkin Park’s honesty and commitment to their craft have only deepened their connection with their loyal fan base.
