The late Chester Bennington’s pre-Linkin Park band Grey Daze have shared an official video for their song “Saturation (Strange Love).“ This track will appear on their new album “The Phoenix,” which is set to be released on June 17. Like the band’s 2020 album, “Amends,“ the effort will include various reworked tracks featuring Bennington’s vocals.
Drummer Sean Dowdell said the following about the song:
“It’s going to surprise a lot of people because it gets back to Chester’s core. One of the things that people love about him was his unique ability to scream in key… and this song brings you back to everything you love about that scream. You feel that angst and raw emotion he brought to everything he did.”
He also added the following about the album:
“‘Amends‘ was more emotional and reflective. We felt sad when we were writing it. Now that we’re a couple of years removed, it’s very clear what we were going through. We were at a different stage of grief. We went through the shock and the sadness. Now, we’re back to gratitude. So, ‘The Phoenix‘ is more of a celebration of our friend, his talent, and the music. It captures Chester’s angst and energy that people fell in love with. It’s much more aggressive. If you love Chester’s scream, you’ll love this record.”
