Could be Deryck Whibleyvocalist and leader of Sum 41the new singer of Linkin Park in the face of the long-awaited tour of the Americans? Is it simply a coincidence that the announcements that both bands will make tomorrow coincide?
The Canadian band has shared on social media that tomorrow there will be important news related to its vocalist, Deryck Whibleynow that the group is disbanding. From there, fans have spread rumors that would not have an official basis. Everything is related to the fact that Linkin Park have started a countdown on social networks that could coincide with the announcement of Sum 41or it is simply a coincidence. But it has been the fans of both bands – especially of the former – who have started to spread rumours about the coincidence of both announcements.
We doubt it, since Whibley’s vocal register has always tended more towards punk rock and without the possibilities and breadth of the late Bennington’s voice. Will this be a solo album by the Canadian, a new personal project…?
We will see what happens in the next few hours and if the information that Linkin Park will offer is really the announcement of a new vocalist to replace Chester BenningtonThere were also rumours that the band was going to turn to a female singer, which makes Whibley’s case even less fitting.
In any case, Linkin Park’s announcement is most likely related to the expected live dates that, apparently, have been under negotiation for some time with a formation in which they would be Mike Shinoda, Brad Delson and Dave Farrell. In any case, we look forward to your comments on social media. Does the combination of Whibley and Linkin Park suit you?
Here you can see the Linkin Park countdown.
And here is the announcement of Sum 41.
