The band issued “Fighting Myself” and “Lost” earlier this year in anticipation of the album drop, both marking two previously unheard tracks featuring vocals from Bennington. Included on the 20th Anniversary Edition of the band’s sophomore album is the previously unheard “Massive.” Unlike “Fighting Myself” and “Lost,” which are heavily led by Bennington’s signature growl, “Massive” is ushered in by co-vocalist Mike Shinoda with Bennington’s faint whispers in the background.
Meteora|20 also features “More The Victim,” “Healing Foot,” “A.06,” and “A6”—all unearthed to mark this monumental release for the surviving members of Linkin Park. Check out all of the previously unheard tracks below. Whether you grew up a Linkin Park fan or found them after Bennington’s tragic passing, hearing new music from the group featuring Bennington’s vocals is a cathartic and emotional experience.
