Linkin Park

On July 6, 2017, Linkin Park delivered a poignant performance at the Barclaycard Arena in Birmingham, marking a heartbreaking moment in their history, as it was Chester Bennington's final show with the band. Just two months prior to this live recording, on May 19, 2017, they released their seventh studio album, 'One More Light.' This album showcased a departure from their earlier, heavier sound, leaning more towards pop and electronic influences, which stirred mixed reactions among long-time fans. Interestingly, 'One More Light' also reflects themes of loss and yearning, making this last performance resonate deeply given Chester's untimely passing shortly after. The emotional weight of their set, intertwined with the song 'Battle Symphony,' resonates like an echo of the band's evolution and the heartfelt connection they maintained with their audience.
