    RIP

    Linkin Park is garbage nowadays, but they had their moment and I was into it as a kid.

    Chester's output with Stone Temple Pilots after he replaced Scott Weiland was great. High Rise is a solid EP

    Been listening to Chris Cornell and his music today to celebrate his life, now this. This one is just as shocking

    I've been crying for the last hour. I can't even begin to explain how important Linkin Park was to me. Chester's voice echoed sanity to me during my darkest days. This one is going to hurt for a very long time.

    I listened to One More Light (song, not the album) after finding out and shed some tears.

    Two of my favorite vocalists (Cornell and Bennington) and my best friend's mom all committing suicide in a span of 2 months. This s--- f---ing sucks

    I know Linkin Park has effected a lot of the people on here in the same way Chris Cornell/Soundgarden did to me, so I feel for the fans. To all the fans of Chester Bennington that haven't heard High Rise by STP, do yourself a favor and check it out

    People can say what they want about their newer music but their first two albums are what got me into rock and heavier music when I was a kid. I am just heartbroken right now.
