Linkin Park have announced they are releasing rare track ‘Pictureboard’ on the 20th anniversary re-issue of their seminal LP ‘Hybrid Theory’.
Fans of the ‘Numb’ hitmakers had heard of the song years ago and demanded it be released.
And now, Mike Shinoda and co have confirmed it will feature on the reissue of the influential record, which turns 20 on October 24.
Speaking during a virtual press conference, Shinoda said: ‘’Fans have known about ‘Pictureboard’ for about 19 or 20 years. They’ve known of the existence of it, but didn’t know at all what it sounded like.’’
Shinoda went on to explain that they had to get a Barry White drum sample cleared before releasing ‘Pictureboard’.
Despite never being officially released, it’s a fan-favourite, but Shinoda has no idea.
He admitted: ‘’There’s so many songs … why is there so much focus on this one? You’ve never even heard it.’’
