Transcripts
H this is why we can't have nice things
but the nice thing you can have is the
new cor kid line that's only available
for one more day cor
kid.com back Lincoln Park is back again
after seven years of the passing of the
legendary vocalist Chester Bennington
Lincoln Park has come back they came
back with a live stream which was wild
to watch it was honestly the most
exciting thing to see in the past like
10 years especially watching it with the
tin foiled hat and seeing the timer go
up and down and up and down with also a
huge announcement with a brand new track
a world tour and a brand new album but
most importantly a brand new vocalist
within all this Emily Armstrong now
watching the live stream as I mentioned
my previous video I think she did a
great job considering how like just the
thought of like hey I have to go as a
human being in front of millions of
people and basically replace in front of
their eyes their favorite vocalist and
turn into the step parent yeah that's a
lot of pressure I'm surprised anyone
could even do that so again I gave her
mad respect for going up and doing such
an intense job and I think she also just
vocally did a pretty good job and then
on the studio uh song The Emptiness
machine we did a full review of that
again I think her vocals were were good
and I think the song was pretty good too
so overall it's been it's been a Vibe
now only a few days later of course we
can't have nice things so there's
already a bunch of past being dug up of
Emily and accusations regarding ties to
Danny Matson who was in the 70s Show and
got convicted of very very very bad
things that we're not going to
explicitly explain here on YouTube cuz
we do familyfriendly channel here as
well as her ties to Scientology which is
also tied in with the Danny Master
Masters and stuff now as soon as or
specifically read it Twitter became
aware of that they were going in they
were pissed and going yo what is this
explain yourself we need a response and
having no response at all from Lincoln
Park besides just seeing new interviews
seeing a bunch of press promoting the
album and even in the interviews you can
tell they're completely avoiding trying
to ask any questions regarding this
which is understandable you know like I
I don't think even Mike being there is
the one that really wants to answer this
stuff it's not necessarily his to answer
even though I think it's also pretty
naive to assume that Lincoln Park has no
idea this was a thing I mean it's 2024
like if you have a new vocalist you're
basically doing an FBI background check
on them especially of a ban of the
caliber of Lincoln Park they definitely
did like seven background checks to make
sure so I'm sure they are all aware of
this and they just go okay well this has
been resolved behind Clos doors there's
no problem and with whoever's running
the socials even deleting comments
trying to bring down the controversy but
it's it's not stopping it's it's
absolutely reached a peak it is it is
insane and it sucks because people then
can't talk about Lincoln Park and the
vocalist is just hey is the vocalist
good do you like the sound of the
vocalist now the entire R roll out is
being fully plagued and overshadowed by
the controversy from the vocalist now
Emily actually did respond to these
accusations on her Instagram and
Instagram story where she said hi I'm
Emily I'm new to so many of you and I
want to clear the air about something
that happened a while back several years
ago I was asked to support someone I
considered a friend at a court
appearance and went to one early hearing
as an observer soon after I realized I
shouldn't have I always try to see the
good in people and I misjudged him I
have never spoken with him since
unimaginable details emerged and he was
later found guilty to say it as clearly
as possible I do not condone abuse or
violence against women and I empathize
with the victims of these crimes and she
made the statement soon after the Mars
VTA vocalist sedric actually did a whole
story responding to Emily's original
band dead Sarah now you can Google the
details of everything being said here
and again the situation gets pretty dark
and intense very quickly and people are
just pissed so Emily coming back with
this response which honestly I don't
think she could have made a better
response regarding this part of the
situation like it's it's pretty direct
it's just hey that was a bad idea
shouldn't have done it don't support the
person now even after that statement it
doesn't stop because people are still
blasting her on the Scientology part
because Emily didn't seem to address
that at all she only addressed the Danny
Matson portion of the controversy even
Chester's bennington's own son seemed to
be really upset with the whole situation
calling out Mike sh Nota and just yeah
doing a whole statement on Instagram
again you can read it yourself but it's
pretty in intense and again makes the
soul situation that much more just wild
and crazy people are definitely
expecting either Lincoln Park or Emily
to say something I think especially be
this being such a huge band I mean
everyone knows Lincoln Park it doesn't
matter if you grew up in the 2000s it
doesn't matter if you're growing up now
in t you know on Tik Tok everyone knows
this band and becoming the vocalist in
itself you're basically the the vocalist
of the scene like that that is the title
granted upon anyone and I'm sure Lincoln
Park is aware of that I know Emily is
probably aware of that too the
importance of that role especially being
the replacement of someone like Chester
Bennington someone who's so respected
people really want to make sure the
person that's leading the charge of the
scene is someone that they can rely on
trust that they believe in and again in
my opinion seeing how what she's done so
far I think she's a great fit but also
seeing all this controversy and seeing
how intense it is it's going to be tough
it's going to be a tough when they have
a whole roll out do I really think that
they're going to address it I don't know
again I'm pretty sure Lincoln Park is
very aware that this would have maybe
happened maybe not to this degree are
they going to say anything I'm not sure
is Emily going to say anything I don't
really think so because also with
Scientology you don't want to mess with
that you know there has been cases where
people have outed and and said they've
left Scientology and they they they bad
things happen very bad things happen so
I don't know if necessarily she wants to
put herself in that position even if it
is true or maybe she is still a part of
that group I'm not sure and even myself
you know I I am I don't know the super
depth of how crazy Scientology is I know
aliens I know Tom Cruz and I know oh
that's bad bad stuff that happens you
know there's a lot that if you Google
it's it's pretty messed up just like
with a lot of things in the world of
course but the situation we're at now is
we have the biggest band in the world
the new leader of that band the new
front person of that band intense
controversy and fans are pissed and not
understanding what's what's going to
happen they can either fully ignore it
and just you know hey pretend it goes
away it doesn't exist but a band as big
as Lincoln Park I don't think that
happens to be honest or they going to
try to address it again I don't think
particularly Lincoln Park is going to
address it I think Emily is probably
going to address it with with 50 PR
lawyers and all of that to make sure
that the statement is said properly I
think the only thing you can really come
out and say say is I don't support
Scientology I don't condone it for
people to maybe be happy at this point
or I don't know this is an almost
impossible situation and again it's
unfortunate that this is a controversy
and a situation that takes away from
just the legacy of the band currently
Legacy of even Jester and just the roll
out of all this music even myself being
a person that is sitting here so excited
for new Lincoln Park to check out all
the songs to review the album it's
definitely an awkward situation cuz even
myself I'm getting comments in in my
videos of people going yo did you you
know Scientology and me me wearing the
the the tinfoil hat which was not on
purpose it was just just I'm tinfoil
hatting apparently accidental
correlation there yeah it's a tough
situation I think for anybody and I want
to know your guys thoughts like what do
you think should happen here what do you
think is going to happen do you care if
there's the association for Emily to
Scientology do do you think Lincoln Park
should make a statement do you think
Emily should make a statement are you
still going to support the band are you
going to check out the singles do you
want me to check out the singles you
want me to check out the album like it's
one of those situations where it's like
Jesus man this is why we can't have fun
things man and I totally understand it's
it's frustrating for everybody I'm sure
it's frustrating for Lincoln Park I'm
sure it's frustrating for fans cuz
people want to just be excited and
there's now this you know Cloud over
everything of that has to be dealt with
I think for a lot of fans to be able to
just want to enjoy this the way that the
art and the music and the presentation
and this whole roll out deserves to be
enjoyed with the legacy of a and such as
legendary as Lincoln Park so comment
down below what do you guys think should
happen what do you guys think is going
to happen I don't know I love Lincoln
Park and it kind of just sucks that
always when cool [ __ ] happens there's
just big controversial stuff tied to it
and you know as fans of music like I
don't know just stop going outside
people like everyone stay the inside
record the music play the dun dun dun
and and everyone's happy
