New LINKIN PARK Song Hits The Web

September 3, 2010

A new LINKIN PARK song called "Wretches And Kings" is available for streaming using the audio player below (courtesy of AOL's Noisecreep). The track is taken from the band's upcoming album, "A Thousand Suns", and will be given away as a free download to anyone who pre-orders the record at the band's official web site. "A Thousand Suns" arrives in stores on September 14.

Although fans have heard "The Catalyst" and can now check out this new song, vocalist Mike Shinoda told The Pulse of Radio that the best way to listen to "A Thousand Suns" is all at once. "People are used to consuming music in kind of small, bite-sized pieces, as we are, too," he said. "But yeah, we kind of made a six-course meal or a 15-course meal for you. If you decide to just, you know, check it out in little bits and pieces, that works. That's fine, but you will be kind of foregoing an experience that is special, and we want people to know that the record is, you know, something that if you listen to it from beginning to end you'll get something extra out of it."

"A Thousand Suns" track listing:

01. The Requiem
02. The Radiance
03. Burning In The Skies
04. Empty Spaces
05. When They Come For Me
06. Robot Boy
07. Jornada Del Muerto
08. Waiting For The End
09. Blackout
10. Wretches And Kings
11. Wisdom, Justice, And Love
12. Iridescent
13. Fallout
14. The Catalyst
15. The Messenger

LINKIN PARK will play a special show on the date of the album's release at the Nokia Theater in New York City, before heading to South America and Europe throughout the fall.
