Cause more people need to this rather significant statement.
It kills me that Chester is dead; more so because I was listening to Hybrid Theory on my way to work. Got me through middle school, HS, and then some. To leave behind six kids, especially after candidly talking about struggles with addiction, just hurts so much more. Lot of people around the world are hurting right now.
Chris Cornel hit me hard but this broke me, I actually cried last night listening to numb. I hope they both find the peace they were looking for wherever they are now RIP
The music that got me through some of my darkest nights. It really DID matter.
Thank you so much for this tribute.
I'll never forget the night i saw them live at the Warfield in SF. I had gotten 2 free tickets for being in the LPUnderground. Took my best friend with me and it was so amazing. Wish i could have caught a drumstick that Rob tossed into the crowd. I could recite every lyric, memorized every track listing forward and back of HT, Meteora, and MTM, and bought their overseas cd singles. I bought so many that my local record store knew who i was when i called and refused to order anymore for me (i called everytime a new one was released). I was young so i had my mom demand they order lol! Ive watched Frat Party at the Pankake Festival over 50+ times and memorized the codes that got you to hidden menus. I wore a Linkin Park shirt everyday during my sophmore year of high school and even wore Dickies just so i could dress like the guys. Even forgot to take the chain off my Linkin Park wallet and had it confiscated by school officers. I got it back of course, wasn't going to let them keep it.
I have too many memories and just so heartbroken. You will be missed Chester. ❤️
My life was changed by Linkin Park and their music. It was the album of my high school years - the roughest years of my life. It got me through. Rest in peace, Chester. You were so loved by so many.
Rip Chester... You and your band has meant a lot to me, especially with your first two albums. It's tragic that the world has lost yet another great artist 😭
Thank you for sharing these resources. :)
Thank you, subeta. <3 </3
from what i can tell, there wasn't -- there was no free gift that day.
Thanks for the Chris Cornell tribute/free gift! Oh wait never mind.
Nice wearable, but I have no clue who it's for. Was disappointed there was no tribute to Adam West.
This is wonderful. Thank you for this gift Subeta. ❤
I've been listening to LP for nearly 2 decades and this was quite a shock when I found out. I was at work when I heard and had to put my customer on hold to try to process it.
Also, to anyone who's been battling these issues... from one to another, I remind myself that death is a permanent solution to something temporary. As horrible as things may seem, there is always someone who loves you that you can reach out to. If you don't feel like you have that someone, reach out to a different outlet or call line like the one provided here. It will always get better.
Was at Comic-Con San Diego today, on the escalators when the guy behind us broke the news out loud, it was horrible. Such a great man. T_T Rest in Peace.
I love this gift. <3
You know, it didn't occur to me that you'd have something for this, but I'm glad that you do.
I feel bad in asking, but honestly, I was rather upset when Chris Cornell died, and I didn't come to the site at that time. Was there an item for him too, and if so, what's the name? I hope to find one for sale, since I missed it.
Thanks!
Thank you, for this.
Thank you ❤ I also took some of the resources some people linked and posted and added it to my pet Depression.

Hang in there.
Wow this one makes me cry. I grew up listening to linkin park and still have their cds! Rip Chester.
i got online wondering if there would be an item for him ;; it just happened to be the edge that finally got me in tears. rest in peace. thank you, staff <3
babeee <3
Shout out because I love you guys!!
<3 gah, rest in peace. thank you for this <3
This hurt. It's a lovely tribute and the news post is appreciated. Trying to get help is important
Thank you for the tribute, Subeta! You are all loved ♥♥♥!
RIP Chester Bennington =(
Fucking gutted.
Thank you for always reaching out to us like this.
This post made me so sad, but I'm happy you guys did something for Chester! I'm really upset that this happened,.. I wish someone would've been able to help him, but there's only so much a person can do....
So yeah, for everyone reading this: remember that you are loved by a LOT of people, even if they're not good at showing it every day. You're important, and your life matter! <3
Thank you, Subeta. ❤
<3 I needed to see this. It's so hard knowing without his music I'd have had a much harder time through some rough patches early in my life.
I was in disbelief when I heard them talking about this on the radio on my way home from the store. My father had told me first but he wasn't sure if it was Chester or not, so I didn't believe it. And I still can't.
Rest in peace, Chester Bennington. Thank you so much for all that you have done in your life, and your music with Linkin Park. I know you've got to be jamming with Bowie and Cornell right about now.
Just take care of yourself and your loved ones at this time. <3
<3 <3 <3
I also suffer with deep depression plus having Asburgers it's called by a newer name now and I went from having thoughts of suicide since I was a bulled kid up to 10th grade, my Mom pulled me out then on December 23rd of 2014 my lifeline died of cancer, Mom was the only reason I never acted on my thoughts of suicide. So after her passing I did it and I now have a new family that I can talk to when my thoughts get to that point.
It's sorta of harder to come to terms with all of this, LP had such a big impact on me. This is a really sweet tribute, thank you Subeta, and for the resources to help people
Uh, the feels T_T..I've listened to LP since high school and been a fan ever since. Really great band, to have touched so many Thank you, Chester, may you rest in peace <3
This pains me in the heart very much. I was like.. 6 years old? When I first heard "Numb". Since then, I have been following them. This is a sad day. But I appreciate this tribute.
Rest in Peace Chester.
It's hard to even put into words... it is so sad that someone who has made such an impact on so many people, helped so many people in this same situation get through it, could be gone like this. We aren't taking enough care of each other, that people are holding these things in them and society is still so resistant to acknowledge how serious depression is.
It is so important to get help. Things can and will get better. Reach out and don't stop reaching out, never ever stop, health and happiness are possible and you're loved and appreciated.
Thank you for the amazing tribute. Rest In Peace Chester. <3
I'm so crushed by this. It gets me really, really hard. I just can't even really talk about it or articulate how much I'm hurting. I already had 2 deaths that shook me this week and this one, while not as close, just really, really broke the camels back you know.
R.I.P Chester. Thank you Subeta for this wonderful item. Linkin Park got me threw some ruff times in my life so this does hit close to home for me.
What a cool tattoo!
What a lovely tribute!! He made amazing music. He will be missed.
like staff has said before they can't do one for everybody they just do it for ones that impact a particular staff member it's up to them to make one it's not required.
I just heard the news, this is very heartbreaking... I remember back in my teen years, I would listen to a lot of Linkin Park. They really did speak for a lot of people who felt like outcasts... Rest in peace, Chester.
I've been feeling really depressed this last week and yesterday I was crying because I couldn't remember the last time I was actually happy. I relate to Linkin Park's songs so much when I feel like this. I listened to the album Living Things a few days ago, and hearing that Chester killed himself, while I didn't expect it, I wasn't surprised.
What a sweet tribute to such a wonderful person. Thank you.
Thank you, not only for the tribute but for the support & help. ❤️
Thank you for the tribute. The loss hits very close to home and it's hard to accept what has happened. Stay safe and strong, everyone.
Thank you.
