Fans online seem to be having mixed reactions over the news, but quite a few have defended Linkin Park's decision to have Armstrong join the group.
One user on Twitter wrote: "Emily Armstrong is actually a pretty great choice as a new vocalist for Linkin Park. I was a bit skeptical on Linkin Park adding a female vocalist but she sounds splendid live. Sounds close enough to Chester but different enough that it is not a shameless ripoff.
Another added: "People hated Adam Lambert when he first played with Queen; the exact same is gonna happen with Linkin Park. Overtime people are gonna come to realize that Emily is not taking over from Chester, she & the band are continuing the legacy. You're just unnecessarily mad from nostalgia. "
Linkin Park is slated to kick off their world tour on September 11 in Los Angeles before heading to NYC, Germany, the UK, South Korea and Colombia.
