Very sad. I used to listen to LP back in the day. Hybrid Theory was a great album.

RIP.

I grew up on LP - Hybrid Theory came out when I was in the seventh grade and the album along with ESL classes helped me improve my English and enhance my pronunciation.

The band holds a special place in my heart and I'm actually somewhat sad that Chester ended his life.

Rest in Peace Chester.

Just sad. Really hard to keep losing the guys my age whose music really defined a generation. The list is already too long. Mental health and addiction are smelly pirate hookers.
