If Chester killed himself after this album dropped, would his

You don't even know what ''impact', if any, Chester's death has because it hasn't been one day yet. What a stupid ass hypothetical question.

it already is

do u think pitchfork will give the reissue a ten in a couple years like they did with appetite for destruction lol

definitely wouldn't have been more impactful that Kurt, but if he offed himself after meteora linkin park would probably be /mu/core

You're missing the point. We know Chester's death definitely wont be very significant to the way their music is perceived because Linkin Park has been a meme for the past decade and hasn't made a decent album since Metora. OP is asking what would happen if Chester died in 2004 and all we had to remember LP were their 3 first albums. I think he would probably be viewed as a misunderstood lost soul who wrote lyrics with a lot of emotional weight, but instead most of /mu/ sees him as a talentless cunt who abandoned his wife and kids.

faint is one of the best songs of all time

Not even remotely, no

It feels pretty fucking impactful. LP was a huge part of many people's middle school and high school lives all over the world.

no wtf how the fuck can you compare nirvana to lp

>>74056973

No one over thirty even knows who Chester is

Axl didn't kill himself though, he just got fat.

>>74056973
Kurt Cobain is overrated desu, they weren't even that impactful before his death. LP really did a ton, put out a shit ton of music, were in the first couple transformers, a generation grew up on them.

yeah LP early work is way better than anything Nirvana made

>>74062235
This.

I'd imagine so, they were a lot bigger back then, imagine all the teens killing themselves.

I think what made this so sad for me is when I realized the connection to Chris Cornell's death. I saw people 20 years older than me crying on the sidewalk as the news broke. LP really did touch a lot of people.
