    Linkin Park vocalist Chester Bennington recently confirmed the existance of a solo album in a recent interview with Rolling Stone Magazine in their August 2005 issue. The article reads:

    LINKIN PARK screamer CHESTER BENNINGTON will release a solo record, and he breaks the news in the Smoking Section. "We took Nineties rock, mixed it with Eighties pop like DEPECHE MODE, THE CURE, and BAUHAUS and smashed them together," says Bennington. "It's fuckin' driving beats and walls of guitars." Songs like "Morning After" and "Walking in Circles" are in the can, and Bennington is especially psyched about a new song, which a friend says "sounds like T.REX."

    Thanks to Paul!

    I wonder what the studio version of The Morning After would sound like if it's to fit with Chester's description.

    From how that reads, it will sound exactly what I thought it would sound like -- Julien-K. Bleck!

    Haha.

    "If Chester ever made a solo album, 'The Morning After' won't be on it."

    Looks like I, along with many other people, were wrong. :lol:

    Of course, nobody could predict that they would go put out solo albums.

    Except Negrodamus.

    1) You should be arrested for the blatant overuse of smilies. Please quit it.
    2) That was posted a few days ago.

    Okay, I think this will be veeery interesting... LoL I'm definitely not a fan of Depeche Mode or The Cure but now I think it will sound a lot like Orgy because Orgy's influences come from 80ies pop/electro/synthie bands and from 90ies rock bands and I love Orgy so I'll wait and see what comes out of this ;) I just know that I love Chester's voice and that this will be a very different thing for him and that this might be a further development for him... I'm very optimistic that this solo album will kick ass!! He'll do a great job... I just believe in this :lol:
