Mike Shinoda - Post Traumatic

Mike Shinoda — Post Traumatic Deluxe Version 2LP

Post Traumatic is the debut solo studio album by Linkin Park vocalist Mike Shinoda. Released on June 15, 2018 under Shinoda's own name instead of his Fort Minor moniker, it's his second solo studio album after Fort Minor's The Rising Tied.

Shinoda recorded Post Traumatic in the months following the passing of Linkin Park vocalist Chester Bennington. Originally released in June 2018, the 16-track album included the three songs from the Post Traumatic EP released earlier that year, plus the singles "Crossing A Line" and "Make It Up As I Go."

This 18-track deluxe vinyl reissue of Post Traumatic includes two bonus songs: "Prove You Wrong" and "What The Words Meant"; tracks that were originally released as a limited edition 10" single and added to the digital album.

Despite its title, Post Traumatic — which includes collaborations with K.Flay, blackbear, Machine Gun Kelly, Deftones; Chino Moreno, and grandson — is an album about healing. The songs are specific about Shinoda's experience with loss yet manage to be universally relatable, thanks to their honesty and heart.
