RIP Linkin Park: Chester

  His name was Chester Bennington. He was the lead singer to Linkin Park, and sadly, he took his own life at the age of 41

   Why am I blogging about this?

      I was a big fan of the band and I was really a fan of the songs. Sadly the last album wasn't their greatest, but I will remember him from some of the songs he was known for such as:
  "In the end", "Numb"

In 2003, they had a hit album called Meteroa. I got the album and loved most of the songs. Numb was one of them, along with:
  -Breaking the Habit
  -From the Inside
  -Somewhere I belong but I thing Numb is the favorite from that album.

They made a new hit called "Heavy" from their new album but it wasn't as great as their recent hits, which made Chester upset. He also was friends with Chris Cornell from Soundgaren who also killed himself.

It's been very sad lately for these celebrities taking the quitting way because one album didn't work out or they suffer from depression.

The rest of the Linkin Park singers were beyond depressed and decided to cancel their future tours, stating that it was because of the death of Chester.

Mike, Brad, Dave, Joe and Rob are still part of Linkin Park, but without Chester it feels as if there is a gaping hole in the band that can never be filled not even if there was a replacement.

   They have done it before when two other band members left, but this time, it feels as if there is a deep scar with in the bandmates that will never heal. 

   I guess I'll be playing Linkin Park in Chester's honor. Losing Chester is like losing a friend, and I wish it wasn't to suicide.

It happens to many great talented artists such as: Sylvia Plath, Vincent Van Gogh, Singer Tommy Page and many more. 

It's sad yes, but we will remember Chester more for his music than his sad death.
