Linkin Park’s “New Divide” x “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”
Linkin Park has been involved in various projects since the release of “Minutes to Midnight” in 2007, which included their first single “What I’ve Done” featured on the first Transformers movie. For the second film, Linkin Park has scored another song featured on the soundtrack titled “New Divide” for the anticipated summer flick, “Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”. The song debuted yesterday along with a new 14 second trailer from the film.
Brad posted a message to LP fans on their website yesterday:
More than Meets the Eye
When Michael Bay asked us to contribute music to the newest Transformers movie, we were honored. We felt “What I’ve Done” worked great in the first film, and were eager to provide another song that captured the essence of robots-destroying-other-robots energy. Our only problem: that song didn’t exist.
So over the next seven weeks, we set out on a rather ambitious adventure–to create from scratch a piece of music that would represent not only the band, but a multi-bajillion dollar, worldwide movie franchise. And it wasn’t easy. Though the bones of this particular track materialized swiftly, the devil is almost always in the details.
At the end of the process, and through an amazing amount of teamwork, we completed our journey. The result is four-and-a-half minutes of sonic storytelling–one part classic LP, two parts electro exuberance, and one part mechanical mayhem. We simply call it “New Divide.”
Hope you enjoy.

I’ve been a fan of LP since day one (1999′s release of Hybrid Theory) and have not been disappointed by any of their work. I’m eager to see what else they have installed for us after “New Divide”. Listen to “New Divide” and preview the new trailer below.

“Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen”.
Yeah, saw this last night. Never really got into LP.
At least it’s better than Stan Bush’s You Got the Touch upgrade from 1986 Movie.
Oh wow…never seen this one, thanks for the link cho!
