I grew up listening to Linkin Park and loving their music. The news about Chester devastated me. I was sad at the possibility that the band might cease activity, but I was also understanding if they did.
Ultimately, I'm glad they found new members! I trust that the original members know how to carry on Chester's legacy the way he deserves. Nothing can ever replace Chester, but I believe continuing Linking Park is a great way to honor him.
Well then I hope that they will focus on new songs. I always loved Enth E Nd
Only Og's remember this version
To say I have mixed feelings about this would be an enormous understatement. I personally was hoping they would regroup, but for a new project, instead of trying to reform LP itself. Even more so now that they've lost another original member (which was also news to me.) I know that's not the marketable option, even if it's just a name, but... ehh. Frankly I'm afraid to even listen to the new song, much less hear them perform their old material. I still haven't.

I felt the same way, but after watching their LIVE on Youtube yesterday, and listening to the new song, I don't have a problem anymore. I can still feel the LP style in it, but I can also tell it's different and they even tried to mimic Chester. The name is the same, but the group is different for sure, in a good way.
What a plot twist female vocalist. I'll hold judgement
i just wish she didn’t have so much baggage in relation to her ties to scientology.
Same, I sadly knew who she was before she joined them, due to her past links to and defenses of an r**pist, like literally he is in prison on a 20+ year sentence right now. Also finding out, this has been in the works since early 2019, she was already a long time friend of Mike's, while she was defending that gross man and attacking the r*pe victims, I got the ick. It all just kinda kills it for me, no matter how good her voice is, it does not matter if she is a poop person. 
My other half could not even fathom them replacing Chester with someone with her past, and said it was going to be a disaster, even before the information about her actions resurfaced.
Like they could not find anyone else, except a friend of Mike's with an shady past, that goes against what Chester stood for? Not anyone else?
