    That was equally as depressing for me compared to this.. All of the legends are passing and it sucks.

    It often gets forgotten but Chester's side project/solo album Dead by Sunrise's album "Out of Ashes" was extremely personal and some of my favorite songwriting that Chester did

    Anyone who has followed Linkin Park know that he was actually a very troubled individual and recovering drug addict for the entirety of their fame... this is one of those things that shouldn't surprise anyone but no one thought it would be something that actually happened

    I assume the death of Chris put him over the edge

    Yeah I know it's sort of a joke that LP's music has always been about nothing but angst and depression but Chester himself had did an incredible job over the past 20 years seeming to be fully functioning and healthy...you never know what goes on behind closed doors...

    Yeah there's always that line between art and life that you imagine there but it rarely is. Its like if Earl was to commit suicide it would unexpected even though his last album was really one long a--- suicide note, its kind of f----- up.

    People who don't understand the millions of fans of this band has must've skipped actually listening to them when they were at the forefront of music and just caught onto the memes later on...

    Chester's one of the greatest frontmen in metal history and one of the biggest voices of this generation

    Tomorrow's just a dream I can't attain
    It's like a fire I can't contain
    And though it seems so far away
    It's just a day, a lonely day away

    Loneliness is beautiful, it brings you home again
    Happiness is overrated, joy is infinite

    Some of Chester's best work is on the High Rise EP

    This whole High Rise EP plays like a suicide note now that Chester is gone
