This is legitimately the saddest music death in a while. At least artists like Cornell and Bowie left their mark on the world before they died, releasing seminal albums and influencing countless of musicians after them.

Imagine suffering with depression all your life and using music as a creative outlet, but your music is so terrible and aged so poorly the only people who take it seriously are the generation who grew up with it as teenagers, so you're treated as a joke for the rest of your life even eventually by your own fans who accuse you of selling out, until you eventually kill yourself, destined to be forgotten about in a few decades.

I get what you're saying OP.

I always thought his lyrics were just edgy bullshit to pander to their adolescent fan base, but this kind of recontextualizes it all. I'm not gonna say he was a good lyricist or musician or anything (though he did have a great voice), but learning that most of those emotions were probably sincere is pretty heartbreaking.

Hybrid Theory is one of the few good nu-metal albums, even though it did not age that well.
Meteora aged even worse, it was a bit stale when it came out.
Minutes to Midnight was LP starting to run out of ideas and trying to hop onto other trends.
Everything later was LP just trying to go with the flow and failing.

Guess that's why you always see rich guys full of smiles and extasy

Humans always want more than what they have. When you already own everything you can think of you end up getting bored out of it. Especially if you bought it all in an instant without actually working for it. All you can do is watch your money pile up and tell yourself that number should be bigger. That sounds pretty fucking depressing to me but what do I know

If he hadn't spent the last decade trying to avoid comparisons with his most popular work, or lectured his money paying fans about how they need to get over Hybrid Theory this would be way more sad.

The truth is, even if you liked Hybrid Theory or Meteora Chester wanted to you like their new stuff instead so he and LP could be seen as "legit" artists.

You ever have one of those musician deaths that feels like a piece of you has died as well? This is one of those for me.

I'm not a faggot who fake sobs about every single fucking musician death, but Linkin Park legitimately was always a part of my life growing up

Guys his suicide note is so fucking harsh. Please take time to read it:

Time is a valuable thing watch it fly by as the pendulum swings
watch it count down to the end of the day the clock ticks life away.
It's so unreal, didn't look out below watch the time go right out the window
trying to hold on but didn't even know I wasted it all just to watch you go
I kept everything inside and even though I tried, it all fell apart
What it meant to me will eventually be a memory of a time when
I tried so hard and got so far but in the end it doesn't even matter
I had to fall to lose it all but in the end it doesn't even matter

Until I discovered LP, It was the first time I listened to music that I indentified myself with. Today I generally like Rock, rap and eletronic music, everything started with LP.
This is a deep personal loss for me

Yeah, Linkin park has been a meme band for over a decade now. Back in 2003ish people would have been legitimately sad. Now it just doesn't feel like as big of a deal to everyone but their core fans and his family, and people really just care about a great opportunity to make some CRAWLING jokes.

i dont know anything about chester's personality except (i guess) for what he puts forward in his music, but it IS very sad to imagine him hoping his suicide would make his art better or something. obviously i have no idea if that was on his mind or if he just hated being alive so much more generally or something inside his personal life or whatever but it bums me out to think that maybe he killed himself thinking it would make his cultural/artistic contributions more important. the immediate fact of his death makes people appreciate and cherish his life but i don't think he's going to go down as a cobain or an ian curtis or something.

That's because he fucked up his voice and he literally couldn't scream anymore so they told their fans that their music was going to be softer from now on and they will threw a shit fit.

>The band, specifically frontman Chester Bennington, have lashed out in response to the negative reception of One More Light's material. As documented through Spin magazine, in an interview with Music Week, Bennington, at the accusations that the band had "sold out", suggested that those people should "stab [themselves] in the face" and "move the fuck on" from the band's past sound.[56][49][57] Similarly, in a separate interview with Kerrang, Bennington, in response to claims of selling out with the album, responded "I will punch you in your fucking mouth ...

It's more correct to say they're incredibly superficial copycats re-heating messages past bands presented in a more original format, like microwaving a bunch of leftovers, chewing them up and then regurgitating the paste for toddlers that don't have teeth to feed themselves with yet.
What's the point of praising the inferior version of something that already existed in a better form in the past?

stfu poorfag. are you implying that rich people don't have the right to be depressed?

A properly done "short drop" hanging (i.e. one that doesn't snap your neck) kills you by compressing your carotid artery and cutting off blood flow to the brain, which is apparently a pretty nice sensation (see autoerotic asphyxiation and why it leads to so many accidental deaths).

On the other hand, most people are very stupid when it comes to guns and brain anatomy, so when you do things like use too small a caliber or put the gun to your temple/pointing at the roof of your mouth you're more likely to become blind/retarded/permavegged in an extremely painful fashion that doesn't kill you.

Depending on how courteous you are to the would-be finders of your corpse, a rope around your neck is much cleaner and less spooky than tossed brain salad

You guys aren't actually rich to fully understand that wealthiness DOES NOT determine your mental state.

You're a ticking bomb.
>>
>>74065487
You're contradicting yourself.

The 'He was rich so therefore he was happy' argument is completely autismo. He has 6 kids and a wife who he thought would have been better off without him. That kind of thinking only comes from someone who's manically depressed, money doesn't automatically buy respect or love off of your family.

The chap was sexually abused, bullied horrendously and had multiple addictions, which he kicked. Even look at their lyrics, it was obvious that the band had gone through some shit.

But edgy autists online who sprout contrarian opinions, with no emotional capabilities won't understand that.

He was a very successful and connected star who could achieve just about all of his material and creative desires in the snap of a finger. It's not like he fell off of the wayside. Despite a mix of critical reviews, One More Light did pretty well commercially. It topped US Billboard charts and landed in the top 10 all over the world.

Bennington was a melodramatic prima dona who saw way too into Chris Cornell's myth and decided to hang himself on Cornell's birthday to symbolize something special and fantastic to no one but himself. He did nothing honorable. He chose this fate.

Wealth only buys happiness up until you reach the amount necessary to maintain a decent quality of life. You can find exceptions, but generally, lots of wealth indicates an equally heavy burden. In the case of a big musician, fame is not easy.

Also, I want you to give some thought to all of the people that he's employed to standards of living much higher than what would occur in your communist shithole. Engineers? Retail employees on all levels? Marketers? The dude who sells hotdogs at one of his shows? All of the above, and all so that they can bring joy to the consumer.

Capitalism might bring inequality, but why exactly is inequality a problem when the bottom is still far above the status quo in your communist shithole? Who has communism ever helped economically? Why are you so obsessed that nobody ever be better off than you?

>third world

Third world shitholes always suffer from excessive government interference (including unofficial governments of sorts in the form of the mafia) in the market and a lack of morality and vision on the part of the citizenry. They're hardly a condemnation of capitalism, especially in comparison to every other system.

>Not true communism!

People are not infinitely programmable blank slates, communism removes all positive incentives for work, and violence is the only tool left to a communist to fight off famine. The catastrophic experiment that we saw play out close to a dozen times over the past century with over a hundred million dead is the true face of communism.

Also, the people that I see screaming for communism today really don't strike me as being cut from a more benevolent cloth than Stalin. As tends to be the case with leftists, they just assume that they're smarter than previous generations for no reason other than their own ignorance of the past and their massive egos. Pic related.

Being a lifelong suicidal I have to agree. I have no sympathy for those who kill themselves. Though I don't necessarily blame them either.

People say suicides are "selfish" are stupid as fuck, but they're not really deserving of much weeping either. Especially when the person involved was super privileged.

I would EASILY trade that for being rich and famous. No question.

>Anon tries to guess what Chester's motivations behind suicide were
>HURR DURR PUT THAT TINFOIL AWAY

I didn't realize speculating was now "conspiracy theory". Nice.

>Third world shitholes always suffer from excessive government interference

Agreed, however, to play devils advocate for the moment, if you look at Jamaica and how it transgressed into a violent 2 party state AFTER the UK had left the country, it proves that they were much more stable when the English had complete control over their governing and their industry.

>The Famines

Mao and Stalin's 'great leap forward' and 5 year plans left their countries in a better position to deal with later troubles, this is evident in the USSR with build-up of infrastructure in order to fight Nazi Germany, and it's been proven that China would be more economically well off if it had continued with Mao's plans.

Stalin's collectivisation method would have worked, if not for the rich 'up and coming capitalist' Kulaks, who were hoarding food for themselves to sell, killing their own livestock so the government would not have them for 'their-self'. They were the masters of their own downfall.

Although I must agree that Stalin was a colossal failure when it came to military affairs, it was his iron fist AFTER the kulaks had fucked themselves up that made the USSR spiral into famine.

I guarantee that you live in a white, upper middle class suburb who has lived an incredibly comfy and financially secure lifestyle thanks to your parents and capitalism.

Conspiracy theories are the result of misinformed and biased speculation.

Even if you were right, which you aren't, that wouldn't change anything. It's not as if there are many socialist alternatives, aside from Cuba, which would be easy to transfer to.

Would you really want to live a life where you can't take a piss without someone taking a photo of you at the urinal and telling the whole world about it? You'll never be a truly private citizen who's free to move without having his every move watched and scrutinized ever again.

I don't envy the famous.

Chester wasn't famous in that sense though. I'm sure he was occasionally recognized in public, but no more than say a modestly successful e-celebrity would be today. Everyone knows Linkin Park, but prior to yesterday, not everyone knew who he was (let alone what he looked like). I'm sure he lived a normal life, except for the fact that he had tens of millions of dollars and got paid to travel the world and play music while having fun with his friends. Oh the horror.

It's almost like you're living in a bubble, or just haven't been reading a single post on this thread.

I've read every post in this thread. I'm not sure what kind of argument you're trying to make.
