JAKARTA - Several major changes occurred in Linkin Park's new formation. Apart from Emily Armstrong's entry as a new vocalist, they also introduced the replacement drummer, Colin Brittain.

Despite the pros and cons of the fans, they are still stepping up with a new album and tours in several countries. Unfortunately, Brad Delson the guitarist won't take part on this tour.

"I am very proud of everything we have created. Even though I will not appear on this new era tour, I am proud to introduce Alex, who will represent me on the tour," explained Brad in a statement also posted on Linkin Park's account.

From this information, it was also revealed that Brad was absent from the tour. He considered it more comfortable to work behind the scenes.

"I've always felt connected and proud of our live performance. Over the past few years I've realized I was the most excited when working with bandmates behind the scenes, in studios to collaborate in new music, and help build our live performances," he said.

This expression made fans disappointed, so they were even more annoyed. In the eyes of a number of fans, the changes that have made them lose the Linkin Park they have known so far.

"This condition is getting worse over time," said one netter. "It's like not Linkin Park, why don't you just change your name?" another urge.
