Oh Man, what the heck, I listen to them every once a while.

In The End

Apparently he was close to Chris Cornell and killed himself on Cornell’s birthday.

Really sad. Google had a link to his wife’s Twitter, and it appeared like he and his family had a pretty happy life. Guess you never can tell.

Ouch.

The singer is said to have struggled for years with alcohol and drug abuse, and has talked in the past about contemplating suicide as a result of being a victim of abuse as a child.

Shows why child molesters deserve the Death Penalty. They may not necessarily take a life, but they do take a mind.

Everything after “In the End” from Linkin Park kinda sucks. Only that first album, at least I think that was their first album, was worth listening to.

Had no idea this was the tuned sampled as Mark Levin’s theme song until he played the full song last night at the start of his show.
