Former Hopes Die Last vocalist Becko releases Mike Shinoda-assisted new single, ‘Darkest Days’

After the band’s breakup years ago, former Hopes Die Last vocalist Marco Calanca had two choices. Would he form a new project similar to Hopes Die Last, or would he try something off the beaten path? Either one would have been great, but fortunately for us, Marco took what he already knew and went off the beaten path to create a new identity – Becko. Already signed to electronic rock label FIXT, he’s got a new single out now – and guess who produced the track?

Linkin Park’s Mike Shinoda, that’s who. In fact, he produced the title track live on Twitch earlier this year, giving Becko some much-deserved attention. Becko’s sound pulls from multiple corners – there’s influences from EDM, hip-hop, trap, and metal here – so there’s something really here for almost everyone. Give the song a spin below.
