An unapologetic song about what depression is really like is "Given Up" - it cries out Chester's desperation. But what makes it remarkable is a 17 second metal scream that is absolutely incredible. His vocals are unmatched!

RIP Chester. He was someone who suffered from depression and you heard it in his music. Gotta hear "Numb." That song will definitely make you feel his pain and something some can relate to.

Yes RIP Chester… Linkin Park was one of my favorite bands when I was a teenager in the 2000s, but I lost interest in them after this album. Meteora was their last “good album”

Chester (R.I.P.) had so much energy. He was a totally honest artist that put everything into it. I'm so happy that I can say that I got to see them. They rocked it! Their songs are painfully honest but motivational. They don't have a bad song.

Chester Bennington (vocals, lyrics) and Mike Shinoda (rap, keyboards) at the top of their game. One of the best from a band that doesn't get enough credit.

The Linkin Park rabbit hole is so deep. "Papercut", "One Step Closer", "Points Of Authority", "Crawling" & "What I've Done" are just a few of the gems you'll find with this amazing band.

I agree he will be missed 😢. Without him they won't be the same.

Linkin Park was a jolt to the music scene when they first came out. They blended the genres in the best way. KROQ in Southern California first started playing them. They had them playing parking lots at Best Buy’s. You just knew that they were going to be big.

YES!! ⚡️ They opened a whole nother door! It was beautiful too! RIP Chester forever missed 💔

I have a voice acting background and have to say that Chester's on stage performance as well as his voice as a front man (Dead by Sunrise), has been such an inspiration for more than 20 years now. The vocal training was really tough, sometimes without noticeable results for months but artist like him and the great Kevin Conroy are an impulse to not give up. You almost saw me as Leon in those new RE games :) If you're looking for a similar sound I would recommend Earshot - 'Wait', Spineshank - 'New Disease', Incubus -'Certain Shade of Green', Reveille - 'Inside Out', Primer 55 - 'Loose',

Awesome reaction guys! So glad y’all enjoyed it. “Faint” should be added to your list for the next LP reaction.

Linkin Park is the BEST...This is an amazing song..R.I.P Chester...please react to their song "NUMB"

Mr. Bennington ripped off the band-aid and exposed his soul. Many empathize with his pain. Bless his soul.

'Faint' is an awesome pump up song for game day!

RIP Chester Bennington

RIP Chester. He tried so hard to overcome so much in his life. This song is truly a swan song. Just so sad but he left an incredible amount of music.

Numb, Faint, What I've done, Crawling, New Divide are all good songs to do next.

"One Step Closer" is another great pump up song from these guys.

There are quite a few Linkin Park songs that will get you pumped. Points of Authority, One Step Closer, Lying From You, By Myself, A Place for My Head (especially the live in Texas version) and Faint are all great songs to get the blood pumping. Linkin Park is an essential 00s band speaking as someone who was in high school when they debuted...not a bad song on their first two albums...definitely worth going down the rabbit hole :)

Chester’s voice was simply amazing. The way he portrayed every deep feeling was so intense, is hard not to relate to what was said on every Linkin Park song. Next one I would recommend is “Papercut” from the Album Hybrid Theory. My personal favorite… love ya guys!! Thanks for the great reaction!

THIS was the song with which I purged negative energy from my body for years. Rock it out...

Damn I miss him.👼👼👼☦☦☦

You must review Linkin Park more often than once a year. There are so many good songs to enjoy. Songs to check out: Breaking the Habit, One Step Closer, Numb, Crawling, What I've Done, and Given Up. There are a lot more but these will keep you busy! Lead singer is Chester Bennington. He was a phenomenal singer and a really genuinely great person but had his demons and is still missed.

Rip Chester

Love Linkin Park. I had the pleasure of seeing them in concert before Chester Benningtons passing. They put on an amazing show!

Linkin Park is great! Their lyrics are always very deep. Chester’s voice is amazing, Mike Shinoda is the one rapping, the blend between both is very unique. I love them!

“Crawling” by Linkin Park is soooooo good. Please react to this one Jay and Amber!

OMG, more Linkin Park please!!! I didn’t pay attention to them until really recently, and they’re so good.

Linkin park-Crawling,Castle of Glass,Burn it Down,What ai've done

Mike Shinoda with the rapping and Chester Bennington with the singing are the perfect duo for rap/singing and add that to hard rock or metal. LP had the perfect music combination for my taste anyway and I’m freaking 68 years old! 😂. I miss Chester so much. He passed away in 2017 I believe. They also switched roles in some of their songs where Chester rapped and Mike sang and sometimes back and forth in the same song. They were just so creative and unique. Deep lyrics most of the time and fun music. Very passionate at times. They loved their fans. All around just a wonderful band. ❤️

RIP Chester Bennington.

Reminds me of my son who passed away !! Even though I showed him all my music , he shared all of he’s music with me!!! 😢❤😊 RIP David

I was turned on to Linkin Park by my sons in the 90’s, live there sound, rap and grunge all in one, they had so much to say!!! RIP Chester! Miss your awesome voice!

Grunge? No. At all. Nu metal.

I'm fairly sure this was the first LP song that drew my attention to them, I bought the CD, and was really impressed with the whole album. The album had already been out for a few years by then, but it came into my life at a time that I needed it.

Chester's voice was awesome. It's hard to listen to these lyrics knowing that he took his own life after years of battle with depression. But it's important to talk about it because lots of folks are struggling. I suggest that you check out the tribute concert for him. His wife's speech is very powerful. R.I.P. Chester and thank you for all the great music 🙏

Love Linkin Park. Keep their music playing !!!! ✊

There are so many great ones, but 2 YOU MUST listen to are Numb and Given Up. Lyrically, Amber is going to be blown away. The bass, the metal, & in Given Up, there's a 17 second stretch that is going to BLOW YOUR MIND! Jay these 2 will definitely get you going!

Hybrid Theory is straight up and album full of bangers. It's one of those albums that was awesome through and through

Not sure if you have already done the Linkin Park/JayZ mash up album. 6 incredible tracks that are a MUST view!

Linkin Park knocks it out every time! You should check out another group called P.O.D. Their song, "Alive" is sure to get you hyped! 💯👍🔥

“Given up” needs to get a reaction purely so we can see Amber react to the scream!!

You guys listen to all the greats. Definitely one of my favorites. RIP Chester

RIP Chester

Rip to a legend. Gone but never forgotten , Chester ❤. So many memories each of these songs by LP.

This is from the best Linkin Park album! Meteora is FILLED with absolute bangers! It was a moment in time when that album dropped. Pick any song from that album and you won't go wrong. Damn, I'm off to listen to it again.

I feel blessed that I was able to see them in concert. One of the very few bands that sounded EXACTLY like their cd when they were live. RIP Chester ❤😔

All of Hybrid Theory is amazing, any of them would be a great pick. I would recommend Papercut or crawling next.

Chester helped so many people with depression through his music. We were all too blind to see that he was shouting out his own depression in his songs.

Chester is an amazing artist.. when he passed we lost a great legend imo. Heavy is my favorite song by them. U def need to hear that. RIP Chester...😢😢

The older I get the more I appreciate LP. This one has always been a favorite. Mike Shinoda ❤ let's not forget this amazing dude.

I LOVE Linkin Park! Chester was amazing! I always would listened to Linkin Park, Evanescence, and Avril Lavigne all through school. RIP Chester he was a Legend! ❤️

Check out Linkin Park - Waiting for the End. One of their best tracks.

Linkin Park is FIRE! One of my top 5 favorite bands of all time.the late great Chester Bennington on those ripping vocals is one of the best things ive ever heard

Every Time I'm listening to a linking park song, I'm bleeding inside for Chester. Loved him and the band so so much. Linking park is still my favorite band.

LOL Rob pausing it in the middle of Chester’s soulfelt bridge 🤣🤣🤣

Chester Bennington was a gift that we had for a very short time. All of his songs , the lyrics the emotions all a prelude of what Chester was going through. RIP Chester

Rock music took a big hit when Chester died. Linkin Park is one of those iconic bands that helped define the 2000s

Can we give Shinoda some props as a songwriter? He wrote nearly all of it, both lyrics and music.

You guys haven't dove into them enough!! They are incredible!! And Mike raps quite a bit in their songs ❤

Totally thrilled you guys got back to Linkin Park. You might consider checking out "Lying from You" off the Meteora CD. Killer guitar riff ... and a rap ... on top of a thumping beat. Their song "Breaking the Habit" helped me through some rough patches after I lost my wife 3 years ago. RIP Chester and my princess Stephanie.

Yes!! Thank you for exploring this band! Love this scene!

I went through a difficult phase when I was teen and this song helped me a lot and Chester’s vocals just amazing. They have other great songs in their albums too. Glad to see you guys jamming to this! 😁

Check out the band Fort Minor song Remember the Name. Great hype song.

Fort Minor is a must

Nothing bad can be said about Linkin Park (RIP Chester). Chester can sing! His vocal ability is incredible. The combination of rap and rock vocal makes Linkin Park unique. They found a way to incorporate both styles in a way that not many could. Their sound is distinctive and one of the best bands to come out of the 90's. They wrote songs that were deep, reflective & honest, many touching on Chester's own personal demons, which many of us now see as cries for help since his suicide. But such incredible music. Keep reacting to this band.

Thanks for bringing this song to us. I've not heard it before and it's really awesome.

My favorite song by Linkin Park. When Chester died I played this song on repeat like I had done many times before when feeling down.

Rip Chester.. loved every song of this group. The wall of sound guitars,Chester and Mike,Mr Hahn ..magic combo.

Such a damn great song! Such a damn great band! Love it! Thank you, Jay and Amber.

Since you liked the vibe of that song, why don't you check out Linkin Parks breakout hit "One Step Closer", the one that made them famous

"Faint" and "Breaking the Habit" are my most faves from them!

Chester was such a great vocalist. I cannot think of one single song that he did that I didn't like. Awesome review guys.

Such an amazing group! Heaven is blessed to have Chester. I hope you’re free of all the pain💔RIP

The great thing about Linkin Park was that I wasn’t the only middle aged guy in “the pit” living in the tunes with Chester’s voice pumping up the adrenaline levels!

Castle of Glass is how I got into Linkin Park and it is still one of my favs by them. It has such a deep meaning that many can relate with and sounds so....unique. I recommend Castle of Glass by Linkin Park.

This is one of the greatest bands of all time. Nu Metal was king in the early 2000's.

one of my fave songs. so relatable.

Been away for a while, but so happy to be back! Love you guys! ROB SQUAD!!!!!! ❤

Listening to this after Chester Bennington’s suicide, the song takes on a whole new meaning. He want to heal, he wants to feel. So very sad 😢. Such a talented artist and such a great song. And such a devastating loss 😢

This is a catalog you totally need to dig into. Chester Bennington (RIP) had a way of expressing how so many of us feel. Mike Shinoda is also a master with the rap. Not sure what you've reacted to do far, but Crawling and One Step Closer are definitely reaction worthy.

i wish chester could’ve realized he belonged in all our hearts that he touched and helped thru his music. sadly sometimes our demons have the loudest voices in our heads. much love chester.

Lp is one of the best bands, where all their songs you can relate to in real life issues, especially in the end ,numb which helped through personal issues the biggest hit by record !!

Linkin Park were amazing, and Chester Bennington was a lyrical genius. You can tell every word he sang he meant. You don’t get that nowadays. Other songs of theirs you should check include: “Feint”, “A Place For My Head” and “What I’ve Done”

Chester just wanted to be loved. Every song the man sings is a cry for help. 😢

i listened to this song back in 2006 in middle school. i’m 32 now. RIP Chester 😩

Gone way to young. Your music will live on forever always missed rest in heaven chester 👌

A couple of the members, including Mike Shinoda spun off Fort Minor. There song "remember the name" is my favorite "get hyped" locker room song. When I was coaching youth football, I had to use the clean version!

The lyrics touch your heart would probably be even more so if you remember her at the lead singer *Chester Bennington* committed taking his life 😥

RIP Chester. He saved so many people and but no one could save him

There is no way that people never heard of Linkin Park and their songs. Sometimes it is weird to see these reaction, but glad you liked it I guess. Great reaction too!

One of my favorite bands! RIP Chester 😢

This is one of my favorite songs from them❤❤

Yes Mike Shinoda is a rapper. Linkin park is unique and blended together. Metal x rap x and hitting high notes signing. Rip Chester Bennington.

There’s something so unique, so captivating, and so heartbreaking about a Linkin Park song. My favorite song and video of theirs is “Numb”, I hope you check it out! (Update: not the remake/sample with Jay-Z, just the straight Linkin Park version)

My fave by LP! Try, "Nobody's Listening" from same album! You won't be disappointed. Love to you and your fam!!

The 90s into the 2000s had some of the most varied music to be given to us in the main stream scene. At the time, we had no idea it would end and turn into the mess that music is today; simple and repetitive. Back then the music had soul and meaning. It was a painting of our lives and we were so blessed to have the music we needed to get through a life of such fun and strife. I survived those years because of songs such as this. I miss those days but life goes on. At least I can put the songs on my hi-fi and play them whenever I want. Thanks for reacting to this song.

Chester Bennington was an amazing vocalist, he sang with every emotion...it was so raw. Unfortunately the world lost him to his struggles with depression about 6 years ago 😢. The other vocalist (who raps) is Mike Shinoda.

Love this group! Always have!
