Linkin Park singer Chester Bennington has committed suicide ... TMZ has learned.

Law enforcement sources tell us the singer hanged himself at a private residence in Palos Verdes Estates in L.A. County. His body was discovered Thursday just before 9 AM.

Chester was married with 6 children from 2 wives.

The singer struggled with drugs and alcohol for years. He had said in the past he had considered committing suicide because he had been abused as a child by an older male.

Not gonna act like I didn't blast hybrid theory for like a year straight in my youth. They left much to be desired in their newer albums for me personally. Can't say I'm a fan of linkin park but I know Chester helped a ton of kids battle through some hard times in their life with his lyrics and music. Some pretty devastated people out there. Means he made a big impact on a lot of people's lives.

Wasn't a bad song on Hybrid Theory. In my opinion one of the greatest modern rock albums.

Hybrid was good and Meteora.   I don't think they've really every been "bad" (well maybe the new album).   I haven't really listened to them for a long time (like listen to an album etc).    There are very popular and a lot of people were touched by the lyrics and message.    Pretty sad.

Buddy and me were listening to them before anyone, back in the day when you could get albums like 6 months in advance it felt like on IRC and whatnot and loved Hybrid Theory.    It's one of the few redeemable popular rock albums from that nu-metal period honestly.

    • He can’t even learn to run routes. No chance in hell he can do both that and pick up blocking schemes 
    • Well he had essentially a 70% completion rate for almost three thousand yards.  Biggest issues were awkward and inconsistent release.  I wouldn't call arm strength bad, but not great.    
    • I see him being better and most of that is a few downfield passes that were seemingly non existent.    But it is what is around him that has dictated the trajectory more than the quarterbacking. He is game manager level and unable to dictate to defenses.  And even if I am wrong and he is the reason we ‘upwarded’, we are bumping our heads on the ceiling and only making meager gains. If it is an incline it is awfully shallow degree wise. Like a finance graph that tracks your progress and hovers around the rate of inflation. Barely breaking even.  Is that where you want your money?  We make up these deadlines expectations and generally he does the minimum of what he needs to do to hang around.    It does not encourage me to believe that when we get into a game against a good run d that we cannot break down with our run game, to believe that we can pivot to the air and successfully counter their strategy.  But they run it back again. Of course I am gunshy of a repeat of the same thing we have watched for three years.    oh, and yes his durability is his most impressive positive for my money. I fear the other shoe dropping on that and the contractual consequences that will follow.   Last  of all, too late to edit my mistake here but would like to acknowledge it: the last three years has done very little to convince me that I was not wrong in not wanting him. One too many “not”s.
