On April 18,2011, Mike Shinoda from Linkin Park announced through their official website www.linkinpark.com, that their new single 'Iridescent' is being featured as the title end number in the upcoming Michael Bay movie, Transformers: Dark of the Moon. This third installment of the blockbuster will be opening on July 1,2011.
It can arguably be one of the most successful collaborations between music and movie, previously Linkin Park had provided music for the Transformers films , 'What I've Done' from the first film, which became an instant hit selling over 3 million downloads in the US, 'New Divide' from 2009 Transformer’s: Revenge of the Fallen crossed the 2 million mark. Both songs were top selling songs for the band .
It has also been revealed that Linkin Park's secret weapon Turntablist Mr Hann aka Joe Hann will be directing the video for 'Iridescent'. Hann also directed the video for 'New Divide'which received over 78 million views. One can only expect big things from him.
Steve Jablonsky mentioned in a recent interview on LPTV " Michael and I responded to Linkin Park because they have a cinematic sensibility to their music that translates to big screen."
I couldn't agree more, along with their growing fans worldwide.
Linkin Park has come a long way and over the years creating a more mature sound which is evidently clear in their new single 'Iridescent', also becoming a fan-favourite at their live concerts as Mike shinoda has mentioned.
Transformer’s composer Steve Jablonsky with Linkin Park talk about their collaboration.
This coming September the band will be touring Japan and Southeast Asia, with a stop on the main stage of the 2011 Singtel Singapore Grand Prix on September 25. For more tour information please visitwww.linkinpark.com.
Till next time
