lol no

Yes Grunge was really popular in the early 90s but after Kurt Cobain died, grunge lost its popularity very quickly. Then tons on different styles of rock music became popular.

Blame lack of talent, not a single band

I didn't even know Chester Bennington's name until he died. Kurt Cobain was much more well known before and after he died. And Nirvana had a huge influence on the music of their decade. Linkin Park hasn't influenced anything

Nirvana changed the way music was and was basically a punch to the face to the hair metal era. They changed everything.

Linkin Park, while big, was st best just the "best" of Numetal. They weren't genre shifting

wasn't alternative rock taking off some like the 70s/80s?

and wasn't the hair metal era not even relevant by that point, anyway?

80s sure, unless you're including influences by bands like The Clash and such. But Nirvana made it mainstream

And nah, it absolutely still was a thing. You can argue that it would have died our eventually, but Nirvana amd specifically Cobain as their head man made them huge

Kinda... Think most people thought of Mike Shinoda before Bennington though...Kinda like how everybody thinks of Lars when it comes to Metallica even though he wasnt the frontman.

LOL @ people shitting on Nirvana. They're awesome then and now as well.

Linkin Park was also always good. I loved them when I was a kid. I stopped listening to their newer stuff years ago, but often went back to their old songs regularly. I was listenning to some just a day or so before Chester died. Never understood the hate.

Chester is way better than Kurt but Kurt killed himself at the height of his band's popularity.

So there are some differences. This fucking sucks tho.

dunno if this was pointed out but kurt killed him/got killed when he got super famous. nirvana was popular for like 3 years or so when it happened.

linkin park wasn't as popular after their first few cds. most people i know didn't like any of their new stuff. so this would be like chester committing suicide after meteora came out.

Kurt did way more for music than Chester ever did. He helped put grunge on the map while Chester was just another cog in the emorock scene.
