==History ==
=== Early years (1996–99) ===
Originally consisting of three high school friends, Linkin Park’s foundation was anchored by [[Mike Shinoda]], [[Brad Delson]], and Rob Bourdon.<ref name=Ask-Bio>AskMen.com, [http://www.askmen.com/men/entertainment_150/196c_linkin_park.html Linkin Park&nbsp;– Biography] Retrieved on March 20, 2007</ref> After graduating from high school, the California natives began to take their musical interests more seriously, recruiting [[Joe Hahn]], Dave "Phoenix" Farrell, and Mark Wakefield to perform in their band, Xero. Though limited in resources, the band began recording and producing songs within Shinoda’s make-shift bedroom studio in 1996.<ref name=Ask-Bio/><ref name="Bio2">{{cite web|url=http://www.popstarsplus.com/music_linkinpark_history.htm|title=Linkin Park&nbsp;— band history and biography|accessdate=December 23, 2007}}</ref> Tensions and frustration within the band grew after they failed to land a record deal.<ref name=Ask-Bio /> The lack of success and stalemate in progress prompted Wakefield, at that time the band's vocalist, to leave the band in search of other projects.<ref name=Ask-Bio/><ref name="Bio2" /> Farrell also left to tour with Tasty Snax and other bands.<ref name=MusicMight>MusicMight.com, [http://www.musicmight.com/linkto/artist/{152D3B4F-F96B-445F-A2F6-DFF26B9 Linkin Park&nbsp;– MusicMight Biography] Retrieved on March 20, 2007</ref><ref>Livedaily.com, [http://www.livedaily.com/interviews/liveDaily_Interview_Linkin_Parks_Dave_Phoenix_Farrell-6078.html?t=6 LiveDaily Interview: Linkin Park’s Dave 'Phoenix' Farrell] Retrieved on March 20, 2007</ref>

After spending a considerable time searching for Wakefield's replacement, Xero recruited [[Arizona]] vocalist [[Chester Bennington]]. [[Jeff Blue]], the vice president of Zomba Music, had referred him to the band in March 1999.<ref name=LPT>Lptimes.com, [http://www.lptimes.com/bio/bio_band.html Band History] Retrieved on March 20, 2007</ref> Bennington, formerly of Grey Daze, became a standout among applicants because of his unique singing style. The band changed its name from Xero to Hybrid Theory.<ref name=MusicMight/> The newborn vocal chemistry between Shinoda and Bennington helped revive the band, inciting them to work on new material.<ref name=Ask-Bio/> The band’s renaissance culminated with a change in name; from Hybrid Theory, the band changed its name to Linkin Park, a play on and homage to [[Santa Monica, California|Santa Monica]]’s Lincoln Park.<ref name="Ask-Bio">AskMen.com, [http://www.askmen.com/men/entertainment_150/196c_linkin_park.html Linkin Park&nbsp;— Biography] Retrieved on March 20, 2007</ref> However, despite these changes, the band still struggled to sign a record deal. After facing numerous rejections from several major [[record labels]], Linkin Park turned to Jeff Blue for additional help. After failing to catch [[Warner Bros. Records]] on three previous reviews, Jeff Blue, now the vice president of Warner Bros. Records, helped the band sign a deal with the company in 1999.

The vocal interplay between Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda plays as a major part within Linkin Park's music, with Bennington being the lead vocalist and Shinoda as the [[rapping]] vocalist. On Linkin Park's third album, ''Minutes to Midnight'', Shinoda sings lead vocals on "In Between", "Hands Held High", and on the B-side "No Roads Left". In ''The Catalyst'', the first single from the band's fourth album, ''[[A Thousand Suns]]'', both Shinoda and Bennington sing. On the most of tracks off the record, the band notably used electronic drumbeats along with outro drumbeats. The album has been regarded as a turning point in the band's musical career by notable critics. James Montgomery, of MTV compared the record to [[Radiohead]]'s ''[[Kid A]]''.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1646930/20100831/linkin_park.jhtml |title=Linkin Park's A Thousand Suns: Kid A, All Grown Up? - Music, Celebrity, Artist News | MTV |last=Montgomery |first=James |date=2010-09-06 |accessdate=2010-09-09}}</ref> Shinoda stated that he and the other band members were deeply influenced by [[Chuck D]] and [[Public Enemy (group)|Public Enemy]], further elucidating "Public Enemy were very three-dimensional with their records because although they seemed political, there was a whole lot of other stuff going on in there too. It made me think how three-dimensional I wanted our record to be without imitating them of course, and show where we were at creatively".<ref name="NME">{{Cite web|url=http://www.nme.com/news/linkin-park/52869 |title=Linkin Park pay homage to Public Enemy on new album |publisher=[[NME]] |date= 2010-09-06 |accessdate= 2010-09-07}}</ref> The record further features a "Political Element" consisting notable speeches by American political figures.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://www.mtv.com/news/articles/1646930/20100831/linkin_park.jhtml |author=Montgomery, James |title=Linkin Park's A Thousand Suns: Kid A, All Grown Up? |publisher=MTV |date= September 1, 2010|accessdate= September 7, 2010}}</ref>
