After a successful tour start, Linkin Park has stormed the German Single Charts with "The Emptiness Machine," setting a new personal record in Germany.
Linkin Park: Number 1 in Germany for the First Time
With "The Emptiness Machine," Linkin Park has finally done it – their first-ever number one on the German Single Charts! In their entire career, they had never reached this milestone before. Their best position until now was second place with "Burn It Down" in June 2012, back then right behind "Tage Wie Diese" by Die Toten Hosen. Maybe you still remember that?
But that's not all: Some Linkin Park classics are also making a comeback. Thanks to increased streaming numbers, tracks like "Numb" (No. 36), "In The End" (No. 53), and "Faint" (No. 65) have re-entered the charts. Linkin Park is shaking up the German Top 100, and that’s quite a feat for rock and metal bands, which are usually more present in the album charts. But even there, Linkin Park is making a strong impact.
"Meteora," "Hybrid Theory," and More: Linkin Park Shake Up the Album Charts
A total of five Linkin Park albums have made it into the top 100 best-selling albums in Germany. Meteora (No. 9) and Hybrid Theory (No. 14) have even stormed into the top 20. Minutes To Midnight (No. 34), Papercut (No. 37), and Living Things (No. 71) are also back on the charts.
The best part: On November 15th, the new album From Zero will be released. If you already loved the single "The Emptiness Machine," get ready – it could become the band’s sixth number-one album.
