Default Chester Bennington 1976- July 20, 2017
Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington has committed suicide
Law enforcement sources tell us the singer hanged himself at a private residence in Palos Verdes Estates in L.A. County. His body was discovered Thursday just before 9 AM.
Chester was married with 6 children from 2 wives.
The singer struggled with drugs and alcohol for years. He had said in the past he had considered committing suicide because he had been abused as a child by an older male.

This is very sad news..I still can't believe that this is true..He was such talented person..I grew up with Lp music, which comforted me during hardest moments. Still listen to their songs..My favorite song is "Somewhere I belong", and I hope that Chester gets to the place somewhere he could belong..without pain.

Ignore them. Some people has nothing else to do with themselves than bully others. They don't deserve your attention.

It's a great band, just not my favourite. Sad he's dead. It can't be easy finding a new vocalist.

In case it needs to be clarified, this is a thread about someone very sadly dying of suicide after struggling with mental health problems for decades. I genuinely do not care what anyone's opinion of Linkin Park's music is, and I don't want to hear it in this thread.

What I lack in decorum, I make up for with an absence of tact.

I couldn't disagree with you more vehemently, HarVee. I don't understand why you feel it necessary to insert a negative opinion in a thread that is taking a moment to remember and mourn someone. Of course, fans will say his music was good. Now is not the time to post about how you didn't like his music. Show some respect.

I'm pretty sure had you said "was never a fan of their music so I don't have a favorite song, but this is still sad news" your post wouldn't have been deleted. See how UsEr-6500 responded. But that's not what you said, is it? There's a difference between having a different opinion and still being respectful and just being an ass.

That said, don't reply here again. You obviously are not upset and are detracting from a thread where people are trying to express their sadness and sympathy. I'd also appreciate if no one else would respond to Harvee in this thread either.

The first song I heard from Linkin Park was, "Crawling". It is still one of my favorites, probably close to "In the end". Linkin Park was a huge part of my teen years, almost every friend I had owned a T-shirt, or patch to put on their back pack. Even though I wasn't a huge fan of theirs, I had a few favorite songs. When I was scrolling through FB, I assumed Chester's death was a hoax.. Then I seen more reporting on it. It was this odd feeling of loss, like, I had also lost a bit of my childhood, the same way I felt when Robin Williams had passed away.
