"Unshatter" is a song by American rock band Linkin Park. It was released on April 25, 2025, as the second single from the deluxe edition of the band's eighth studio album From Zero.

Background

[edit]

It is one of the first songs written and recorded with Emily Armstrong on lead vocals replacing Chester Bennington, with Mike Shinoda stating, "Unshatter was an early track we made while recording From Zero; Emily's huge vocal in the bridge was one of the moments that gave us an indication of what was possible together."[2][3] The song was written by all band members and Jake Torrey, who also co-wrote "Overflow" and "Good Things Go."

Lyrics

[edit]

The song's lyrics speak of broken promises and betrayed trust, discussing the desire to "unshatter" the singer’s vision of the future while ultimately accepting that they will "never ever put it back together."[4]
