The famous 41-year-old vocalist of Linkin Park, Chester Bennington, was found dead in his home in Palos Verdes near Los Angeles before 9 am on Thursday of July 20, 2017.
It came to a shock for everyone that Chester committed suicide when he made everyone thought that he was alright. Linkin Park is actually on tour right now for their newest album, “One More Light.” According to Chester, the album was his way to be normal again. He said:
“One More Light is for us a very personal and very therapeutic kind of record, We got into a lot of aspects of our lives that we probably wouldn’t have normally shared with anyone and just dealt with it on our own, for me personally when we first started working on this record I was coming out of the darkest time of my life and it was all s**t that I was doing to myself. It was all stuff that I had control over but even though I felt differently at the time.”
According to an interview with Bennington, this album helped him pave through from one of the darkest time in his life. Chester actually battled with depression long before and was doing well so far. However the death of one of his close friends, Soundgarden’s Chris Cornell who also committed suicide, triggered his mental illness.
All over the world, people are now grieving fir the loss of a true talent, most especially his family. He left behind his second wife who was a former Playboy model Talinda, and his six children. His band members were shocked as well, for they have thought that Chester was doing well and they were supposed to have a photoshoot on that same Thursday. However, as they went their way to Chester's, the news of his death was all they could have reached for he was gone as soon as they arrived.
