>Always thought Numb was a song about lonliness and isolation as a teenager

what a KWAB song.

fr fr my dad told me to get a job and I started blasting this song all night. Chester knew what it was like to deal with shitty parents.

the music video is some femcel who can't make friends in school so I figured the song was about that.

Yes being angry at your parents is a completely illegitimate feeling to write a song about. We should all pretend like we were never young and were always le based and stoic.

I never cared about them as a favorite or anything like that, but they were decent. I liked them before and I like them now. Lead singer matters, but the band as a whole matters more. I would prefer a man instead of a chick, but whatever.

I don't like her either, but I'm not about to hate my favorite band (yes, I like them a lot), because of one member. Shitting on Linkin Park, because of her, is retroactively shitting on Chester as well and that's a no go for me.

>>128045892
I saw something about that on youtube in a Teddy interview, so probably true. I think he was one of the (many?) people that did sessions with the band.

I can't speak about that unless I hear them live. I have to check if they will do US tours next year, I am curios.

RIP to my boy. As long as she keeps her mouth shut about the scientology shit I'll keep being a fan of the band. One person can't ruin 5 others for me, not when I've been a fan for 20 years, you know? I think Mike is very aware of that and they stay away from political/religious/contentious topics.

I'm glad we can all admit Chester was a shitty person. Dude was a multi-millionaire with 6 kids, massively respected and he still killed himself. He could've just retired and done nothing for his whole life. Oh no i'm rich and sad and i could do literally anything i wanted to fix my ennui but i'm gonna off myself. It takes an incredible level of selfishness to have more than 99.99999% of all people that have ever lived and it not be enough.

mike is quite literally the only reason linkin park continued
he was in chester's shadow the entire time linkin park existed, the only time he really stood on his own was fort minor which still paled in comparison
when chester died the band should have ended because his singing was synonymous with the band
if they let the band end however, mike shinoda would go back to being irrelevant and trying to get attention on social media like he did during covid
so, he decided to keep it going and picked up a random singer so that the gravy train would keep rolling

You'd have to not know English to think this was about anything other than frustration towards a possessive parental figure. You could expand this figure to being society at large, if you wanted, but societal pressures are manifested through individuals, so the meaning would hardly change.
