    From Zero is a decent effort that contains all the band's hallmarks, even if it's not the exact same Linkin Park that is known and loved.

    Three safe, heavyweight singles are backed up by a confusingly hit-and-miss album.

    From Zero is a tale of two halves. The first half feels like pandering to what people miss from Linkin Park. .... However, by the time “Overflow” rolls around, a switch flips. Though it’s more of a Shinoda track, it sets the stage for a strong second half, with its dark and captivating atmosphere and simplistic instrumentation that makes it a powerful standout. From this point on, From Zero maintains momentum.

    Serving as the throat-shredding yin to Shinoda’s straight-man rapping yang, Armstrong’s vocal range is a bit limited, but she largely sticks to her strengths, welcomingly counteracting some of the band’s worst tendencies (for one, she helps resuscitate the drony “Overflow”). But it’s a pity that she’s essentially reduced to engaging in what mostly feels like Linkin Park karaoke.

    Tracks like ‘Overflow’ and ‘Stained’ are the album’s most impressive. They fuse electronica and rock with genuine elegance, in a way that feels contemporary and, to a certain degree, even cutting-edge. .... Few other tracks catch fire in the same manner, however.
