Linkin Park released the lead single Thursday, “The Emptiness Machine” … and next week the band will start playing concerts in Inglewood, New York, London, Germany, South Korea and Colombia.

The new album is the first from Linkin Park since 2017’s “One More Light” … which was released two months before Chester’s death.

TMZ broke the story … Chester hanged himself on the day his good friend, Chris Cornell, would have turned 53. Bennington was only 41 and he committed suicide with a belt.

Now after a long hiatus, the band is back … and Linkin Park says the group is looking forward.
