Track of the Day: Heavy (Nicky Romero Remix) – Linkin Park ft. Kiiara

Heavy (Nicky Romero Remix) – Linkin Park ft. Kiiara

To answer your first question: yes, Linkin Park is still around making music. While the style now is vastly different from the early 2000s (borderline unrecognizable as the same band in my opinion), it’s not unusual for styles to change over time.

This Nicky Romero remix adds a layer to the original track that makes it lighter, yet stronger. His additions aren’t over the top however, which allows to the focus to remain on the vocals and lyrics which is really the driving force behind this song. Heavy could’ve done well with a Mike Shinoda verse as well, but maybe they’re saving that for a later edit.

So go ahead and throw this on and reminisce on those middle and high school years when everyone jammed out to emo music (you’re lying if you say you didn’t).
