Chester Bennington suicide

[Liam]

Chester Bennington being reported by TMZ as committing suicide. They are usually pretty accurate with these things. Thought it'd be something people would want to know about if true.

RIP

[Szumi]

Gutted. I really use to like Linkin Park, and was supposed to see them and Blink live in ten days.

Feel terrible for his kids.

[GoGo Yubari]

ah, fuck. That's awful.

[Bobfoc]

Goodness me. I've never been a super fan of Linkin Park, but they had a few hits that defined the early-2000s rock/alternative/whatever it was scene. They're seemingly always on an arena or festival tour over here too. What's also shocking is that this is another untimely death of a Stone Temple Pilots vocalist.

[FLiam]

For fuck sake.

Horrible news. 

[Lineker]

Fucking fuck. 

[Draevyn]

You've got to be kidding me. Chester was amazing.

[Pooker]

This is crushing. I'm a huge Linkin Park fan, seen them in concert a few years ago, and don't want to believe this at all. 

[Hellraiser]

Fuck.

[GA!]

Absolutely fucking heartbroken. 

[Matt]

Never a massive fan outside of a few songs but that's horrible news, feel for his family. RIP

[The Buscher]

Fucking hell.  I remember in late middle school/early high school pretty much everybody in my class could recite the words to "In the End".

Way, wayyyyyy too young.

Today would have also been Chris Cornell's birthday. 

 

 

Leaving things on a light note, when he and Mike Shinoda seemed to be having a lot of fun recently:

 

[Your Mom]

Shit. LP was a huge part of my younger life. I never really know what to say when this happens.

[Hellraiser]

Mike Shinoda confirmed it:

 

[Johnny Latino Heat]

Shit. I haven't liked LP's stuff since Meteora, but I love both Hybrid Theory and Meteora, still to this day. Fuckin' hell.

[Alex.]

Hybrid Theory and Meteora >>>>>>>

 

RIP Chester.

Damn, he was really good friends with Chris and performed at his funeral. 

This is horrible news, I'm not a big Linkin Park fan anymore but when we were teenagers they were a mainstay, and they're still a favourite of my good mates. In fact, "Numb" is one of the first songs I ever had on my computer, and when I was even younger my older brother was always listening to them and Limp Bizkit.

Sad news. 

[Paton]

Absolutely gutted. Big part of my music life! RIP Chester <3

Aye, and today is Cornell's birthday. I can't imagine he hasn't been planning this on some level for the past couple of months.
