Linkin Park’s Download Festival return is a historic affair
With Emily Armstrong making history as the first woman to front a Download headliner, Linkin Park deliver a set that looks forward as much as it honours the past.

Linkin Park is an American rock band formed in Agoura Hills, California, in 1996. The band’s lineup has included vocalist and guitarist Mike Shinoda, lead guitarist Brad Delson, DJ Joe Hahn, bassist Dave Farrell, vocalist Emily Armstrong, and drummer Colin Brittain. The original lineup featured lead vocalist Chester Bennington and drummer Rob Bourdon. Following Bennington’s death in July 2017, the band experienced a seven-year hiatus, during which Bourdon left the band. In September 2024, the band announced its reformation with the addition of Armstrong and Brittain. Categorized mainly as alternative rock and nu metal, their early music combined heavy metal and hip hop influences, while their later work incorporated more electronica and pop elements. Linkin Park gained international recognition with their debut album, Hybrid Theory, released in 2000, which was certified Diamond by the Recording Industry Association of America. The album’s singles, including "One Step Closer," "Crawling," and "In the End," received extensive airplay and charted highly on the US Mainstream Rock chart.
