Linkin Park

In June 2011, Linkin Park was riding high from their album "A Thousand Suns," released in 2010, which showcased a bold experimentation with sound and themes of technology and warfare. When they performed "Iridescent" at Vasilevsky Spusk in Moscow, it was part of the celebratory atmosphere for the "Transformers: Dark of the Moon" premiere, thus merging the worlds of music and film in a spectacular way. This performance marked a significant moment as it symbolized the band's rising popularity in both the rock scene and mainstream culture. Fun fact: "Iridescent" itself has deep emotional undertones, often seen as a response to struggle and finding hope — a theme that resonated strongly with fans, especially in such a vast and iconic setting like Red Square.
