Colin Brittain, drummer for Linkin Park, is here at Drumeo to break down the band’s newest album: ‘From Zero’. After officially joining the band in 2024, Colin helped shape the sound of the record and now performs every song from the deluxe version of the album, front to back, sharing the grooves, fills, electronics, and production ideas behind tracks like “The Emptiness Machine,” “Heavy Is The Crown,” “Overflow,” and “Two Faced.” Along the way, he talks about how he first connected with the band, the drum kit and sounds used on the album, and what it’s been like stepping into his role in the band. Colin also shares insights into the band’s studio dynamic, how electronics and samples were used across the album, and how his production background influences his drumming.
