Following the untimely death of Chester Bennington who took his own life last July, Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda decided to transfer the grief from the loss of his friend/bandmate to create new music. Today (25th), Post Traumatic, the new EP written and produced by Shinoda is now digitally available and it includes three songs – “Place to Start,” “Over Again,” and “Watching As I Fall.”

Shinoda shared the following message:

“The past six months have been a rollercoaster. Amidst the chaos, I’ve started to feel an intense gratitude – for your tributes + messages of support for the career you have allowed me to have and for the simple opportunity to create.

Today, I’m sharing three songs I wrote + produced with visuals I filmed painted, and edited myself. At its core, grief is a personal, intimate experience. As such, this is not Linkin Park nor is it Fort Minor, it’s just me.

Art has always been the place I go when I need to sort through the complexity and confusion of the road ahead. I don’t know where this path goes, but I’m grateful I get to share it with you.”
