While we're all still clutching our pearls to singer Chester Bennington's excellent vocal of Adele's hit Rolling In The Deep, word on the street is that Linkin Park will drop a new album in early 2012. According to Rolling Stone, the band have brought Rick Rubin back to produce, after adding some of his magic to their latest album, A Thousand Suns, which received mixed reviews among fans and critics. The album so far is almost platinum, so far only selling $784,000 copies in the U.S. If we compare it with their previous albums, that would be considered a flop. As a fan i really hope they bring back some of the Nu-Metal angst that dominated albums such as Hybrid Theory and Meteora, but mix it up with the maturity and experimentation of A Thousand Suns. If they can bring the metal with the melody and have some catchy rock songs with deep substance, Linkin Park will be back on top where they deserve.
