MUSIC FOR RELIEF is seeking your help to raise money to aid the victims of wildfires in Southern California that began Sunday evening and are still burning.
Sixteen wildfires have consumed over 420,000 acres from Santa Barbara to San Diego initiating the largest evacuation in the state’s history with over 880,000 people evacuated, and 2,000 homes destroyed or damaged.
Please join Linkin Park and Music for Relief in our effort to help those in need. Click here to make a donation to help the victims of the fires.
Funds raised by Music for Relief will go to Direct Relief International during the immediate crisis followed by an ongoing effort to rebuild and reforest affected areas.
Direct Relief International is helping Southern California neighborhood clinics, hospitals, and first responders meet the short-term medical material needs of vulnerable, affected residents recovering from the fires, as well as evaluating the long-term recovery needs of the affected communities. Specifically requested supplies that Direct Relief has been able to fulfill include particulate masks, wheelchairs, eye wash, inhalers, and personal care and hygiene items. Contributions will be used to make cash grants to community clinics, health centers, and other health-service organizations in the affected region to ensure they are able to maintain their service levels for low-income, uninsured patients.

Side projects and charity work
Following Meteora's success, the band postponed working on a new studio album for the next several years. Instead, Linkin Park continued to tour and work on many side projects. Bennington appeared on DJ Lethal’s State of the Art and other work with Dead By Sunrise, while Shinoda did work with Depeche Mode.[11] In 2004, the band began to work with Jay-Z in order to produce another remix album, entitled Collision Course. The album, which featured intermixed the lyrics and background tracks from both artists' backgrounds, debuted in November 2004. Shinoda also formed a new band, Fort Minor, as a side project. With the aid of Jay Z, Fort Minor released their debut album, The Rising Tied to critical acclaim.[25][26] On the home front, the band's relationship with Warner Bros. Records was declining rapidly on account of several trust and financial issues.[27] After months of feuding, the band finally negotiated a deal in December 2005.[28]
Bennington appears on the band's behalf at MTV Asia Aid
Additionally, they also participated in numerous charitable events. Linkin Park helped raise money to benefit victims of Hurricane Charley in 2004 and later Hurricane Katrina in 2005.[11] They also helped relief efforts for the 2004 Tsunami victims by staging several charity concerts and setting up an additional fund called "Music for Relief".[29] Most notably, however, the band participated at Live 8, a series of charitable benefit concerts set up to raise global awareness.[30] Alongside Jay-Z, the band performed on Live 8's stage in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania to a global audience.[30] The band would later be reunited with Jay-Z at the Grammy Award Ceremony 2006, during which they performed Numb Encore/Yesterday, en route to winning a Grammy for Best Rap/Sung Collaboration.[31] They would later go on to play at the 2006 Summer Sonic music festival, which was hosted by Metallica in Japan.[32]

Reemergence
Linkin Park finally returned to the recording studios in 2006 to work on new material. Despite initially stating the album would debut sometime in 2006, the album was pushed off to 2007.[33] The band recorded nearly thirty to fifty songs in August of 2006, when Shinoda stated the album was halfway completed.[34] Bennington later added that the new album would stray away from their previous nu-metal sound.[35] Warner Bros. Records officially announced that the band’s third studio album, entitled Minutes to Midnight, would be released on May 15, 2007 in the United States.[36] After spending fourteen months working on album, the band opted to further refine their album by removing five of the original seventeen tracks.[33] Minutes to Midnight sold over 600,000 copies in its first week, making it one of the most successful debut week albums in recent years. The album also captured the top spot on the Billboard Charts.[9]
The albums first single, What I've Done was released on April 2, and later premiered on MTV and Fuse within the same week.[37] The single was acclaimed by listeners, reaching the Billboard Hot 100 days after its debut, and later was the top ranked song on the Billboard's Modern Rock Tracks and Mainstream Rock Tracks charts.[38] Billboard has reported that two other singles, Given Up and Shadow of the Day, are scheduled to be release later in the year.[39] However, such details have yet to be officially confirmed by the band. Bleed It Out was confirmed to be the second single from Minutes to Midnight[40], and will be released August 20, 2007. Linkin Park will release a Greatest Hits/Box Set album titled The Document On September 18, 2007.[citation needed]

Style
Both Hybrid Theory and Meteora intertwined the nu metal sound with industrial rock, synth rock, and drum and bass influences and elements, utilizing programming and synthesizers. All Music Guide regarded it as "a Johnny-come-lately to an already overdone musical style,"[41] whereas Rolling Stone called "Breaking the Habit" "risky, beautiful art."[42]
Minutes to Midnight experiments with both the band's established sound and other genres and styles, a process Los Angeles Times compares to a stage in U2's work. [43] In it, only two of the songs feature rapping. It also is their first studio album to feature guitar solos and to feature Mike Shinoda's singing, rather than rapping.
Linkin Park's use of two separate vocalists has become a large part of their music. Chester Bennington is most known for his growling and screaming vocals common in various forms of metal, while also using more melodic vocals, and has placed 46th in Hit Paraders list of "Heavy Metal's All-Time Top 100 Vocalists".[2] Mike Shinoda is the group's MC, and does all of the rapping. Mike has also done all of the backing vocals live, and in their latest album, Minutes to Midnight, he sings lead vocals two songs entirely by himself: In Between, and the b-side No Roads Left, as well as singing lead in the chorus of Hands Held High.

Album summary
Name: Linkin ParkGenre: Rock/PopStyles: Post-Grunge, Alternative MetalFormed: 1996www.mp3.com/artist/linkin-park
Old-school hip-hop, traditional classic rock, and spooling electronic vibes were the initial factors behind the building of the alternative metal quintet, Linkin Park. The band's southern Californian musical roots were also an underlying basis, for drummer Rob Bourdon, guitarist Brad Delson, and MC/vocalist Mike Shinoda formed a tight friendship while still in high school. Shortly after graduation, art student and DJ Joseph Hahn hooked up with bassist Dave "Phoenix" Farrell and Shinoda for the band, Xero. Hybrid Theory came later, but the band opted on the name Linkin Park when singer Chester Bennington was the last piece added to the band in 1999. Soon the band became a noticeable face at the Whisky as well as favorites in and around Los Angeles. Zomba Music's Jeff Blue was one of the few who didn't turn the band down for a contract at the turn of the millennium - Linkin Park signed to Warner Bros. after being turned down three times in late 1999 and got to work on their debut album. Taking a piece from their past, they named the album Hybrid Theory. It was released in fall 2000 and it showcased their likes for fellow alternative acts such as the Deftones, the Roots, Aphex Twin, and Nine Inch Nails. The Dust Brothers also collaborated on the record, as well as producer Don Gilmore (Pearl Jam, Eve 6, Tracy Bonham). Singles such as "Crawling" and "One Step Closer" were massive radio hits and video favorites among the TRL crowd on MTV. Joint tours with Family Values and the Project: Revolution Tour with Cypress Hill led the band to play 324 shows in 2001. Linkin Park was in demand. Come January 2002, Hybrid Theory received three Grammy nominations for "Best Rock Album" and "Best New Artist." A month later, Linkin Park walked away with an award for "Best Hard Rock Performance" for "Crawling." They spent the remainder of the year hold up in the studio, again working with Gillmore, recording a follow-up to their eight times platinum debut Hybrid Theory.Linkin Park's sophomore effort Meteora was released in March 2003; the first single "Somewhere I Belong" was an instant hit. The second annual Projekt Revolution tour got underway in spring 2003 with Linkin Park joining Mudvayne, Xzibit and Blindside; Summer Sanitarium dates with Metallica, Limp Bizkit, Mudvayne and the Deftones followed in July and August. Results of the latter appeared by the end of the year on Live in Texas. In late 2004, Linkin Park embarked on their most ambitious project yet: Collision Course, a collaboration with king-of-the-mountain rapper Jay-Z which introduced the commercial world to the concept of mash-ups (remixes that sample heavily from at least two popular songs). ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide

The guitars and drums lock into standard thrash patterns, over which singer Chester Bennington and rapper Mike Shinoda alternate in furious expressions of rage and frustration. "One Step Closer," the track released to radio in advance of the album's release, is a typical effort, with lyrics like "Everything you say to me/Takes me one step closer to the edge/And I'm about to break." ~ William Ruhlmann, All Music Guide
