"From Zero (Intro)" is the first track from Linkin Park's eighth studio album, From Zero.

Background

"From Zero (Intro)" is a short intro that kicks off the album. It features a harmony-style vocal for ten seconds, of which Mike said, "The choir on "intro" and TEM is just lots of layers of me and Emily."

After that, it features a younger male voice (likely Mike's kid) saying, "From Zero? Like... from nothing? Oh, wait, your fir-" before cutting off. The person makes the connection to the band's original name, as the album title From Zero is a reference to Xero. According to the band at the Paris, France listening party for the album, it is not Emily Armstrong talking on the album intro and Mike later confirmed online it was a young male. He said, "The voice in the intro is a kid. He is not pleased you keep thinking he is Emily"
