Jesus loving christ. God this sucks. Meteora and Hybrid Theory still remain seminal albums to me, and hearing that he took his own life loving hurts. Rest in piece, another legend lost.

If you paid any attention, this isn't exactly out of the blue. Was it just easier to believe that someone was putting on an act to appeal to angsty teens than it is to confront the fact that they had real problems? Never blow off someone's genuine emotions as angsty melodrama like this guy's were.

a little hard hitting to read that he left behind his wife and 6 kids, RIP

damn, this guy was a really talented singer too
its sad, but people exaggerate how much they care just like facebook banners after every french attack - it's like some weird way to earn societal brownie points

They don't know what they have until it's dead and hanging from a ceiling fan evidently, so they want to make sure that people know they "cared" even though they probably haven't listened to a Linkin Park song unironically since 2008. It's okay to feel remorse since it is still loss of human life, but people rarely express remorse about people they don't even know without the intention to make themselves look better in the process.

The problem with your brown townysis is that people can take music very personally, and the artists that they listen to can mean a lot to them. Is it WRONG to share why you enjoyed their music and the memories you've had listening to them? I still listen to about 70-80% of all the music I've gotten into over my lifetime, music ranging from old to new. Music is something a lot of people consume on a daily basis, so it's entirely fair to have remorse for something that you enjoy being gone.
