For weeks now, Linkin Park has dropped hints as to what they’ve got coming for the 20th anniversary of their sophomore LP Meteora.
Now, the band finally dropped the full video for “Lost,” which includes an extremely era-appropriate AMV for the song. It perfectly catches the album’s vibe, and you can check it out below.
Of the song, rapper Mike Shinoda said the following:
“Finding this track was like finding a favorite photo you had forgotten you’d taken, like it was waiting for the right moment to reveal itself. For years, fans have been asking us to release something with Chester’s voice, and I’m thrilled we’ve been able to make that happen in such a special way. I think they’re going to be floored when they hear and see all the incredible unreleased songs and video footage in METEORA|20.”
According to the song’s press release, the video was “Produced and animated by pplpleasr and Maciej Kuciara’s Web3 studio, Shibuya, the accompanying video re-envisions the band’s AMV legacy through a cutting-edge AI lens, featuring AI production by Kaiber.ai.”
