The rock-EDM crossover continues, this time with a familiar partnership. In 2013, Steve Aoki and Linkin Park released “A Light That Never Comes,” a gritty rock-rap infused tune that brought a more electro/dub side to the Grammy Award winning rockers. It was a big hit, as both dance music and rock fans enjoyed the track (which came with a really cool music video too). Now, the team-up has produced more fruit, this time with “Darker Than Blood.” Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda challenged Aoki on Twitch as part of the promo campaign for the new Mortal Kombat X video in stores tomorrow. The track is less grimey than “A Light That Never Comes,” but still features the famous Linkin Park harmonies and lyrics that brought the group fame almost 15 years ago. The dark but still danceable “Darker Than Blood” will be a track on Steve Aoki’s upcoming Neon Future II, in stores May 12.

Andrew Bayer's "Do Androids Dream" EP Is His Latest Masterpiece
how much did you guys get paid to write a good spin on this? this is sub par work from either of the artists, let alone a collab between them
….idk how i feel bout this….im a hardcore LP fan, but this….
Meh, not impressed. You’d expect better from both of them.
i bet this song will grow on me its just alil weird i like the more agressive style from lp so this was alil to slow for me but maybe they will do more
Well this is pretty shit
this is…. like… garbage. Linkin Park, your music has been gone since Minutes to Midnight, please get your heads out of your a$$e$ and play YOUR ORIGINAL SH!T. Thats what made you guys. You guys can make another Meteora EASY! I know you can. I’ve been your best fan since 2000, i was a 4th grader at the time. Good days with your music. All i have is the memories.
Bunch of idiots don’t understand that this is a STEVE AOKI track with LP collab. Relax.
I like the direction they are heading with this EDM stuff
I like their old sound better
Steve Aoki ruined to them.. :-/
