Chester Bennington
Chester Bennington was the lead vocalist for Linkin Park, Stone Temple Pilots, Dead by Surprise and Grey Daze. Bennington rose to prominence after Link Park's debut album Hybrid Theory (2010) became certified diamond, making it both the best-selling album of the decade and one of few albums to ever hit that milestone. On July 20, 2017, Bennington was found dead in his home in California. He had committed suicide by hanging.
Bennington died on what would have been Chris Cornell's 53rd birthday; the two were close friends and Chris died by the same method of suicide.
