R.i.p Chester. Look up “ given up” chest does a huge scream

People never give enough credit to their drummer, Rob Bourdon. My man is a goddamn drum machine, he's so fucking tight. His beats really make the whole rap/rock combo work

Have you heard "Given Up"? He does a 17 second scream that will blow your mind. And the live version sounds just like the studio version.

“A place for my head” live in Texas 2003 will blow you away if you want a crazy stage performance

RIP Chester :( First 2 album its 100/10, so good ....

I love Linkin Park SO much - I listened to Hybrid Theory every day my entire senior year in high school - this is when I really feel in love with the rock/rap sub-genre of music.

5:45 It’s called “vocal distortion/vocal fry.” Depending on the intensity, it can sound bluesy/soulful to metallic.

One step closer is my favorite their first single

You're gonna love the LP rabbit hole my man. Enjoy!

RIP Chester. "Waiting for the end" is amazing!

All 3 of those you mentioned will change your life. Do them all. One step closer... Castles of glass.... One more light... RIP Chester

R.I.P Chester, the live performance of Faint and Given Up at the Rock am Ring 2007 is epic. Chester's legendery 17sec scream he does in the performance of Given Up is epic. Mad Love ❤

Papercuts is a bangin song that you should check out as well. But definitely one more light is a must. “1 can save millions, but millions can’t save 1”

“A place for my head” is heavy and shows off the rap side or “Given Up” for the screams. Can’t miss.

im so gutted that i cant do first time reactions to linkin park as im a day one fan! but love seeing other people find them and get blown away by chesters screaming ability.... IF YOU WANT HEAVY.....GIVEN UP is your next song linkin park are so damn versatile as you will discover, great respectful review man!! Lee.

Linkin Park was like the voice I never had growing up. My inner child would scream right along with Chester. The lyrics to every LP song seemed to say what I wanted to say. This band has helped so many people through so much pain. Thank you for the reactions.

One Step Closer was the first song I ever heard from them. The entire Hybrid theory album is dope - Papercut and A Place For My Head are some favorites

I’m 63 and absolutely love this song❤ one of my favorites!

You should check out the liver version of this....Linkin Park - Faint (Live at Rock Am Ring 2007) [BEST QUALITY - DIGITALLY REMASTERED]...the intensity of Chester's voice live is mind blowing

“New Divide” and “In The End” pleeeeze 💯🔥🔥🔥

Mike is part of Fort Minor, he has a nice singing voice, plays the piano, among other things and raps. Chester gave us the soft smooth voice of an Angel and the insane ability to scream like a demon with everything in between .... Linkin Park's cover of Rolling In The Deep is wildly amazing. It's a healthy vocal fry scream according to The Charismatic Voice - Elizabeth. You need to check out some of the live performances, I love Leave Out All The Rest live at Milton Keynes, A Place For My Head and Somewhere I Belong both from Live in Texas.

You should check out their cover of Rolling in the Deep. Just Mike on piano and Chester singing - it's phenomenal.

Linkin Park - Querty live in Tokyo is their heaviest song. They played it in 2007 it was officially released this year.

8:11 The best answer to that question I can give you is you need to checkout their Live In Texas recorded concert. It’s insane!

Missing the wave is an understatement. They were a hit machine. Dropping them one after another. Words can’t describe how their music helped a generation

Chester’s signature sound isn’t that growl in the ‘No, hear me out now…’ part. It’s his ability to ‘scream’ and sing at the same time. His high, gravelly, in-tune scream is something that’s unique to him. You hear it in the chorus here. You also hear it in the chorus to ‘Numb’ which is screamed but completely in tune.

U should react to "From the inside", maybe their most complex song. U have everything, angelic voice, vocal fry, mikes magic, beats and destruction, and the video is godlike...

One More Light is a must, in my opinion. R.i.P Chester

I love these guys! You can’t go wrong with any of their music!!!❤❤❤RIP Chester

Breaking The Habbit, One step closer, Point of Authority, A place for my head and From The inside Love them all !

Linkin Park - A place for my head(live in texas) is an absolute must. Any song from the Live in Texas album goes way harder then their studio tracks. ❤

One more light is soooo deep Castle of glass is a song that to me stands on its own as next level and One step closer is also an all time favorite of mine. Do all 3 bro fr fr

Hey BP. Before Ren, it was LINKIN PARK. 52 and still loving them. My kids are now listening to them. ❤❤ from a Middle Ages Renegade.

This was the first cd I ever owned when I was 14. I listened to this album non stop for 9 months until I got a job. This is one of the most iconic albums for people born 1990 and after Great reaction Black Pegasus Stay safe bro we love you here in Australia

dude.. you must to hear "'Given up" that will blow your mind in so many ways. the lyrics, the melody, the scream, cause is THE SCREAM! RIP Chester from the bottom of heart, we miss you bro.. T__T

A Place For My Head live in TX it is my favorite one.

Their stage show was amazing. They were my first concert and few have come close since. Chester once broke his arm on stage and refused to leave until he completed the set. The man was a legend who gave it all to his fans.

I'm a 60 year old grandmom. My teenage kids at the time turn my husband and me onto Lincoln Park and we turned them on to the stuff from the 70's and 80's. It was a matter of respecting each other and having an open mind. It worked well.

“‘“Given up “ and “breaking the habit “ literally changed my life

I love them so much! I'm 61, and I would have their music roaring in my mini van, lol, bass banging. I'd pull up to the stop light people would turn and look, expecting a kid, and here I am, mini van Momma rappin and screaming Linkin Park songs. Very cathartic!! 😂😂🎉

on may 18th 2017 Chris Cornell (singer from Sound Garden and Audioslave) ended his own life. he was a life long mentor to Chester. Chester took the loss super hard on top of other mental health stuff he'd been dealing with for his whole life. july 20 2017 just 2 months later on Chris' birthday Chester took his own life. rest in peace Chester. we always loved you and we always will

Yes do one step closer you won't be let down

"Given Up", "Lying From You", "Breaking the Habit", all great. "One More Light" is probably gonna hit you in the feels, probably "Heavy", too.

1st Respect & ❤ Chester RIP brother. 2nd Anyone else believe perfect follow up is Giving Up??? BlackPegaPebbles gonna be blown away. As are we every time we hear it.

Given up, castle of glass, papercut, one more light are a few Linkin Park songs that you need to listen to but there is so many great songs I can’t wait to see you fall down this rabbit hole

My only regret in life is that i didnt see LP live. They played a big part in shinning a light on a tough time in my life, i had cancer when i was young. I made friends with a kid on my ward and we used to sing along to In the end … unfortunately he passed away one evening, i wont ever forget the screams of pain from his mum. Im sure he is still singing along to LP somewhere

Chester was fucking amazing !! The combo of Mike and Chester was epic!!!! RIP Chester!!

"When They Come For Me" is one of their most unique songs, which I understand the irony of, given LP's uniqueness. I think you'd really appreciate it.

A few recommendations: 1) Chester had the voice of an angel who could scream like a demon. Check out the official MV for “Given Up”. In it you’ll find 17 seconds of sustained anguish. 2) “When They Come For Me” (I think live in Italy is a good version). Different from what you’d expect and showcases Mike more. Nothing crazy, just him nodding to Hip-Hop while Chester kills supporting vocals and drums. 3) “Qwerty” for Chester’s ability to literally flip his vocals on a dime. The vocal agility is insane. 4) Finally, honourable mention to their live in Texas performance of “Place for my Head”.

I've watched quite a few of your reactions now. While not encyclopedic, your knowledge of music taps in to each facet addressed in each song you react to. Your authenticity, charisma, and honest attempt at taking in new genres and bands has lead to me consuming your content and ultimitly today, subscribing. Thanks for what you do and the way you do it.

PLEASEEEEEE KEEP DOING THE LP REACTION you genuinely will keep getting impressed

Rakim's verse on "Guilty All The Same" by LP is one of the most slept-on rap verses ever imo. He rhymes basically every line ending with "guilty" or "same", and the lyrical message is perfect.

They came out senior year for me. One of my friends tuned me into them and ever since, I've been a fan. Their music echoes how I felt during the time of each release.

watch live in texas. I was there. it was epic. I hopped trains from Kansas to make it there then hopped trains back home.

Look at Linkin Park's first album bro it's so good. It has so much of the screaming mixed rap

Hands Held High is an emotional hip hop joint from Linkin Park that will deeply connect to you, knowing your beliefs on society. Highly recommend checking it out.

As a 55 year old woman who grew up on rock and metal I have to say linkin park is about the best band out there! I became obsessed with them! Mike can not only rap but he also can sing. Maybe not Chester sing but he truly can sing! RIP Chester! The voice of an angel and the scream of a demon! So much talent packed into one band! The stars aligned when these guys all got together!

Linkin Park Fun Fact. Mike Shinoda was one of the creators of Linkin Park, Chester joined later. The record company wanted to get rid of Mike, during the first album.

the intelligents the emotional content the heart felt lyrics.... wow MORE!! LINKIN PARK!!

You wanna hear Chester growl and heavy? "Given up" You wanna hear Chesters pure vocals? "Waiting for the end," Chesters vocals are unmatched, in my opinion. The dude can express every emotion in a song. RIP!!!!

Chester has an EPIC scream on this song, Given Up is a song you really want to hear Chester’s screaming at its finest.

Best linkin park songs in my opinion. Breaking the habit, lost, qwerty, easier to run, pushing me away, given up, one step closer, victimized, castle of glass.

This and Crawling fluctuate as my favorite Linkin Park songs.

I grew up with this band. Most of their songs are bangers! Glad to get back into to them.

You gotta listen to heavy, it was the last song released before Chester passed. It's probably the most beautiful and emotionally relatable to those with mental illness.

For peak intensity - Given up (live) For peak emotion - One more light

I grew up listening to Linkin Park. It’s great to see people get out of their comfort zone and check them out.

It's going to be seven years on 20.07.2024 since we lost you, Chester. We still love and miss you.

How many people Chester and LP saved from depression and suicide is incredible He gave people like me a new life And he took our pain and died RiP

Yes End the End, Numb, Faint, Bleed it out, What Ive done are my favs. This is NuMetal and I love it.

Linkin park is for sure sneakily heavy. One the best gateway bands

Breaking the habit - is one that really stands out . Kind of an obvious title with a lot of things behind it .

They have so many great songs. One of my favorites is Somewhere I Belong

You have GOT to check out “Breaking the Habit” (best music video ever!) and “Nobody’s Listening.” Those are both some of LP’s best songs, and I highly recommend them to any newcomer.

Qwerty live from Japan, man. And 1000 other amazing songs!! ❤❤ rip Chaz

my first time tuning in, and i enjoyed every second of it. keep going down the linkin park rabbit hole, you wont regret it 🤘

One step closer, papercut, numb and crawling are the best linking park songs in my opinion

Chester was a treasure, he could sing a ballad one minute, then scream his lungs out the next. as i have seen many peole sum up "Voice of an Angel, Scream of a Demon."

Linkin Park - The Catalyst (Live at Red Square Moscow 2011) it's 🔥

I ❤ LP, this band got me through some things . I’ll be forever grateful and thankful for their music. RIP Chester!

Banger again! You are one of my favorites!

As a rap guy, you might appreciate some more of LP's Mike oriented bangers, Figure.09 is pretty dope. High Voltage is another old classic.

i was blessed to have a friend who introduced me to this album in high school; this track helped cauterize a lot of absentee parent wounds.

There are so many, given up, from the inside, no more sorrow, ect.. by Linkin Park. Subscribed bc I like your lp reactions.

The entire Collision Course collab with Jay Z was pure FIRE. Still listen to it a lot today.

I was fortunate enough to see them twice in concert and they were amazing

One of the first music videos I ever saw, back when mtv still had music, back when people still watched mtv.. Simple a vid as it is, it still sells how much Chester put into those vocals. Dude really gave everything he had. For another rec, Breaking the Habit has always been one of their best. Wild animation, too

Oh Brother Man! You reacting to that super hot fire now lessss goo!!

When they come for me bro. That’s something might become your favorite hip hop all way Best is live to Appreciate

Yes, Chester does everything. R.I.P., my boy. If you want intensity, try One Step Closer. That was the first single from them I had ever heard. It played after midnight on our radio station because they didn’t want to play a song that intense during the daytime hours. I was instantly hooked!!!

If you haven't heard Chester's 17 second scream in "given up", it's a must listen. Lying from you is my favorite song of theirs

Yeah In The End is probably their most popular song. It was certainly my favorite when I first started listening to them. But this song happens to be one of my absolute favorites but only for nostalgic reasons. Every day when I got out of school I had like an hour and a half to kill before I had to be at my part-time job. And in that hour and a half at least 3 times a week me and my best friend and my girlfriend would go and get ice cream or a snow cone or something and it was like a law of nature that this song would have to be played at some point on our little trip. It just came on 1 day and it hit all of us in the right way. We were all in a really good mood for some reason that day and we had some really good ice cream. None of us were addicted drugs.... None of us are now either just to be clear... It was just one of those things that was fantastic in our sober state of mind. So fun that once that it became a tradition almost instantly. I still tap my hands-on whatever they are sitting on when I hear this song like I used to do to the steering wheel.

My first ever concert was linkin park, unforgettable experience I was only 13 and stood right at the front, never been to a show that’s met the level they were at truly amazing 👍🏻

I LOVE Linkin Park - RIP CHESTER, miss you! Faint is my favorite!!!!

Linkin park is amazing! And it is a band with a lost of contrast.. "one more light" is a song with a profund message.. great lyrics. "One step closer" was one of their first hit.. super intense. "Waiting for the end" one of my favorites.. but honestly, pic any song randomly and you're gonna like it

Saw them live in 2007 & 2008... great festival memories :)

How has one not heard this song?? Haha it's such a classic. Brings me back to high school

Mike heavy songs are the best. Somewhere i Belong is even better. Mike is a heavy hitter

Linkin Park stand out to me for their diversity of sound, from within tracks to throughout their career. I hope you will check out songs from their entire career to get a feel for the scope of their sound. They were great live; not the most massive elaborate stage productions, but they put their hearts into it, and often played around with their songs for live performances (using a remix version, mashing songs up, etc). Chester got some well-earned respect for breaking his wrist on stage, yet continuing the show after a quick break. That's dedication ❤

RIP Chester! 💔💔💔 Gone too soon.
