British trap metal artist Mimi Barks has released her take on Linkin Park’s iconic 2000 single “Crawling”, originally featured on the band’s 12x platinum debut album, Hybrid Theory.
Barks, known for her emotionally raw blend of metal, industrial, and trap, shared the following statement on the cover:
“‘Crawling‘ isn’t reborn, it remembers.
A raw phantom in the wires, a resonance of the silence Chester left behind.
Because some wounds don’t heal; they echo.”
Her interpretation adds an atmospheric edge while honoring the original’s vulnerability and pain—marking another powerful tribute to Chester Bennington’s enduring legacy.
