# Linkin Park Announce ‘One More Light’, Release Single ‘Heavy’ Featuring KIIARA

*By Derek Oswald · February 16, 2017*

If you've been following AltWire since it's inception back in 2013, you'll know that there's no secret how much some of us love the band **Linkin Park**. Through their game changing debut record *Hybrid Theory* in 2000, and up to their balls to the wall 2014 release *The Hunting Party,* the band's career has taken many twists and turns. You'd think that a band around this long wouldn't have any more surprises up their sleeves, but the lead single 'Heavy' off of 2017's *One More Light* seems geared up to take the band through one of their most polarizing turns yet.

Leaning towards a more polished, poppier sound (in stark contrast to *The Hunting Party'*s raw production and hard rock influences), the R&B and trap influenced 'Heavy' features one of 2016's biggest breakout artist's **Kiiara** on guest vocals, who skyrocketed to fame with her infectious hit single 'Gold' which we previously featured [here](https://altwire.net/the-spark-week-0320-0327/).

The band teased the album title over the last two weeks through a series of teaser videos for 'Heavy', marked by unique URLs posted to their official website (8 in total), spelling out '*One More Light*', which today was revealed as the name of the band's upcoming 7th album.

With a May 19th release date, **Linkin Park** fans can look forward to picking up *One More Light* which features the following tracklist:

Nobody Can Save Me Good Goodbye Talking To Myself Battle Symphony Invisible Heavy (Feat. Kiiara) Sorry For Now Halfway Right One More Light Sharp Edges

It was also revealed that [pre-order bundles](https://www.linkinpark.com/) for the upcoming One More Light album are available to purchase through Linkin Park's official website. Every pre-order bundle features a one year membership to Linkin Park's official fan club; Linkin Park Underground, which features include access to concert pre-sales. In addition to the fan club feature, the different One More Light bundles include an instant download of Heavy, the option of a physical CD or Vinyl , T-Shirts, enamel pins, exclusive one-of-a-kind photos of the band, and a limited edition 48-page hardcover book. Each of the bundles are priced reasonably, so everyone's budget who wants to pre-order should be able to find a bundle that works for them.
