Linkin Park Biography
Linkin Park is a truly unique band. They are not just Rock, Rap, or
Electronica band. They comprimise of a veritable mixture of different styles
and stylists in music, This makes them
a hybrid in the type of music they
play and their fan-base too. We are true lovers of Linkin Park
Linkin Park's origin began in 1996 when rapper guitarist Brad Delson and the
infamouis Mike Shinoda started a band called Xero. Other members of the
band were
Mark Wakefield the vocalist, Joseph
Hahn the DJ, Rob Bourdon the drummer,
and "Phoenix"
Farrell the bassist.
Xero made a four track demo tape
including: Fuse, Stick N' Move, Rhinestone,
and Reading My Eyes.
When Mark Wakefield left the band, they changed their name to Hybrid
Theory. Later "Phoenix" chose to leave the band to tour with another band,
called"The Snax". The rest of the gang continued to play together
primarily
for fun. They later, signed with Zomba Music an occasion that came about
when they played at The Whiskey Club
in Los Angeles. The final addition to
the band came in the form of Chester Bennington.
Magical Chester, in our humble opinion, was absolutely the
missing catalyst.
His extra-ordinary voice lets him deliver the lyrics at a gentle yet
aggressive pace. He can hit pitch
notes like no other. Chester humbly even
blames
this on "years of singing" and "scar tissue". We absolutely love him.
His arrival completed the Band. Thus in 1999 Carousel, And One, Technique,
Step up, High Voltage &
Part of me were born as a six track EP, to
tremendous applause.
Some legal wrangling made it necessary to change
the band's name. True to
their "hybrid' spirit Linkin Park was chosen. Members drove by Lincoln Park
regularly so why not use a similar sounding,
unique name. Chester has been
recorded
to say he wanted a name which was unique, "where the music could
define the name rather than the name define the music".
Phoneix pulled a
mythical rebirth and rejoined
the band fulfilling his destiny. New demos
were made and the chase for a record label was on. Warner Records were
lucky
to hear the music, like it and sign up Linkin Park. A massive page in their
history was written.
Linkin
Park released their debut album, Hybrid Theory In October 2000,. Hits
like One Step Closer, Crawling, and In The End were
born. Hybrid Theory
eventually received 8x platinum. Hybrid Theory does not follow a trend set
up by a lot of other
bands in that it doesn't contain any curses or swear
words. This was because the band wanted to write lyrics
honestly and they
thought that unnecessary swear words take away attention from the music.
They wanted something that
the public could listen to over and over again
and enjoy repeatedly. At it's completion they felt they had achieved this
feat
with Hybrid Theory.
After Hybrid Theory was released,
Linkin Park's fame permitted them to tour
all over the world. They toured with bands like POD, 3 Doors Down, and
System
Of a Down.
July of 2002, saw LP
release the Hybrid Theory Remix album, Reanimation.
These remixes included talent from rappers like Black Thought and 20
tracks
were cut.
In March of 2003, LP released
their 2nd year album, Meteora. This album
includes hits like Somewhere I Belong, Numb,, and Faint. Included on Meteora
and
Reanimation were ground breaking extras. They contained enhanced
portions. These parts of the discs included videos
and other extra 'goodies"
fans could view on their PC. The band wanted to use technology and let the
fans to see the
process of making albums . This helped them share all the
"Blood, Sweat and Tears," they put into making the albums .
Linkin
Park has won numerous awards including an award at the VMAs. Their
popularity has grown world-wide. They are now truly
international with a
multitude of fans. From their hybrid genres to their non offensive
swear-free lyrics, to their
use of turntables and samples, Linkin Park
cover
a truly versatile ground and provide an entertaining and unique performance
