Linkin Park Release New Single ‘Heavy Is The Crown’ As League Of Legends Anthem

Linkin Park have just released their latest single, Heavy Is The Crown, marking a key moment in their long-awaited return. The song, which serves as the 2024 League of Legends World Championship Anthem, is the second single from their upcoming album From Zero, set for release on November 15th.

Mike Shinoda shared his excitement about collaborating with Riot Games for this anthem, noting that the song captures the high-octane spirit of both the competition and the band’s renewed vigor.

Heavy Is The Crown follows the success of their previous single, The Emptiness Machine, which has already achieved major chart success, reaffirming the band’s place at the top of the modern rock scene. In addition to the album, Linkin Park are in the midst of their From Zero world tour, which has seen sold-out dates across major venues, with new stadium shows recently added due to high demand.
