Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda has released a new single called “Already Over,” a straight-ahead rocker with elements of pop-punk and power pop.

While the tune is noticeably different from Linkin Park’s music, Shinoda explains that there is a commonality in the sound, including one of the instruments he used to record the new track.

“‘Already Over’ came to me as I was sitting with my favorite guitar in my hands — the same guitar I used on songs from ‘What I’ve Done’ to ‘In My Head,’” remarked Shinoda, who played all instruments on the song. “There was a familiar DNA to the song that I think Linkin Park fans will recognize. For me, it creates a bridge from the past to a blurry but exciting future.”

“What I’ve Done” is one of Linkin Park’s biggest hits and “In My Head” is a song Shinoda released earlier this year as part of the Scream VI soundtrack.

Shinoda has kept busy since the tragic 2017 passing of Chester Bennington effectively put Linkin Park on indefinite hiatus. In 2018, he released the solo album Post-Traumatic, and in 2020 he created new music by collaborating with fans on Twitch.

Watch the video for “Already Over” below, and stay tuned for more from Shinoda in what is being described as “an exciting new chapter” in his career.
