The Linkin Park lead singer took his own life on 7/20/2017, which was on Chris Cornell's birthday, who took his own life two months earlier.

Last year, Linkin Park revealed that they still have unreleased material featuring Chester Bennington.
The band went on a hiatus after Bennington’s death. In the intervening period, co-vocalist Mike Shinoda released his debut solo album and a trilogy set called ‘Dropped Frames’ while Bennington’s former group Grey Daze released an album called ‘Amends’.
In April, Linkin Park bassist Dave ‘Phoenix’ Farrell said that the band had started work on new material ahead of the coronavirus crisis.
Shinoda has since revealed that the band have an unreleased song featuring Bennington in the stash. Sharing the news during a Twitch stream, Shinoda opened up about a song called ‘Friendly Fire’ that was supposed to appear on Linkin Park’s 2017 album ‘One More Light’.
Meanwhile, Shinoda has discussed which of Linkin Park’s albums he thinks is the most polarising.
Speaking in a new interview with Anthony Fantano, Shinoda talked about the band’s back catalogue and which one of their seven albums seems to divides fans the most.
