In a recent interview with 98 Rock Baltimore, Dave "Phoenix" Farrell, the bassist for Linkin Park, talked about his collaboration with Emily Armstrong. He emphasized Armstrong's vocal prowess and her easy fit with the group.
People would ask me about Emily because I was telling them so early on. Farrell stated, "My family or inner circle would obviously know what I'm doing and what we're looking at, and I described Emily as the absolute destroyer vocally." "[She] is capable of doing everything and does it in a way that seems so amazing and effortless."
He went on, "Emily just fits with us, which is even more important." When we initially started being together, it seemed as though we had known each other for ages; in that regard, our relationship was simple and flexible. That was therefore one of the most important things to us.
