‘One More Light’ isn’t just one of the best albums Linkin Park has ever produced. ‘Heavy’, the first single from the album, tells you about how life is bringing you down again and again. From ‘Nobody Can Save Me’ to ‘Battle Symphony’, every song in this last album is about facing hardships and struggle and it is about saying goodbye to the world. So many music enthusiasts consider this album as a suicide note from Chester after he killed himself in June 2017. But in ‘One More light’, listeners can actually feel Chester’s heart being ripped out. Their offerings encompassed from hard rock album like ‘Hybrid Theory’ to electro rap album like ‘A thousand Suns’. Linkin Park has always entertained us with different genres between their 17 years career. Those who don’t know the band before, ‘One More Light’ will give doubters a chance to reconsider Chester’s final musical statement with the band as one of the best endings of a musical road.
Some of the fans wondered how this was going to fit with the image of this band but it still worked quite well. He showed his melodic side more and it was simply amazing. But it allowed Bennington to showcase that he was one of the greatest vocalists in the world. When ‘One More Light’ released in 2017, Linkin Park surprised its fans with more of a pop album rather than their crazy rap and alternative rock genre. If I have to say simply, his voice was a gift to music lovers to which we could connect from the beginning. With this intensity in his voice, Chester continued to expand his vocal range, honing his craft and he had the same judgement for his melodic voice too. It was the first time we learnt that the voice Chester Bennington had, it made him really different from others. It was like an extremely primal scream telling you to shut up in Linkin Park’s very first single ‘One Step Closer’. LET us take a walk down our memory lane, shall we? What did you feel or think about when you first time heard Linkin Park? I’ll tell how you felt.

The current single “Heavy,” which features newcomer Kiiara, sounds so timely and pop-oriented that it actually shocked some Linkin Park fans, though the fact that it is so well-crafted should have soothed any ruffled feathers. With “Good Goodbye,” the band seems as sprightly as any number of pop newcomers, especially with its ahead-of-the-curve verses from Pusha T and British sensation Stormzy. But there have been plenty of steps in between, during the past decade or so, and Linkin Park has clearly been sharpening its pop hooks. Yes, it is a giant leap from Chester Bennington screaming lyrics and Brad Delson’s roaring guitars in songs like “Crawling” to the electro-pop of “Nobody Can Save Me” and “Sorry for Now,” where Bennington sounds like he has taken over Owl City. Linkin Park’s transformation from the howling rap-metal of its breakthrough album “Hybrid Theory” to the radio-ready pop of its new album “One More Light” (Warner Bros.) is really only shocking to those who haven’t checked in with the band since the turn of the century. BOTTOM LINE From rap-metal pioneers to pure polished pop.
