LINKIN PARK's CHESTER BENNINGTON: New Stuff Has PANTERA-Esque Riffs - June 21, 2002
LINKIN PARK vocalist Chester Bennington recently spoke to Britain's Metal Hammer magazine about the songwriting process for the follow-up to the multi-million selling Hybrid Theory. Here's what he had to say:
"It's progressing well and I'm really happy with it. We have a lot of songs written and there are a lot of dope beats and cool loops going on. We've got some sick, sick heavy guitars. There's just some great music on there. The stuff I've worked on so far is really easy for me to sing over. It's really easy for me to come up with vocal melodies. And that's the key for me, the ability to come up with good melodies. The only real difference is the guitars are that little bit heavier.
"In my opinion there's some pretty PANTERA-esque guitar riffs, but at the same time it's not super heavy. It's really tastefully done. I think the beats are really awesome. On Hybrid Theory they're really cool, but the beats on this album are a lot more original and have a lot more character and really hit hard. The only way to describe the whole thing is that it's a little bit harder and a little bit softer at the same time. We feel a little bit more comfortable and a little bit more mature."
LINKIN PARK Finishing Up Work On Sophomore CD - Oct. 28, 2002
LINKIN PARK is wrapping up work on its sophomore album with producer Don Gilmore for an early 2003 release through Warner Bros. Records. Vocalists Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda are reportedly finalizing their parts on 12 songs that will end up on the follow-up to the group's 2000 seven-times-platinum debut, "Hybrid Theory".
"We're almost done recording vocals and it's super swell," Bennington wrote in the Studio Report area of the band's official web site. "Mike and I have been putting in a lot of hours in the studio and it's paying off. Working with Don [is] a lot of fun. I'm glad we decided to do this record with him as well."
"It's amazing how much has changed in the last two years," Bennington said of LINKIN PARK's meteoric rise. "We owe it all to our fans, and we'll show you how grateful we are by making this next record great."
"We've had some days where the words just seem to flow out of us, and other days where we can't write more than a few lines," added Shinoda of the as-yet-untitled album. "But I know we need to take our time to make things sound right."
"I can't wait until the album is done and can be heard by all of you," continued bassist Darren "Phoenix" Farrell, who says he is looking forward to ensuing road work. "It will only be a few months until these 'studio reports' become 'tour journals' again. So be ready for us to be in your town again sometime soon."
