Linkin Park was an American rock band formed in 1996 in Agoura Hills, California. They revolutionized the nu-metal and alternative rock scene by blending heavy guitar riffs, electronic elements, and rap-infused vocals. Their debut album, Hybrid Theory (2000), became a global phenomenon, featuring hits like “In the End” and “Crawling.”
With their unique mix of metal, hip-hop, and electronic influences, albums like Meteora (2003) and Minutes to Midnight (2007) cemented their legacy. Chester Bennington’s powerful vocals and Mike Shinoda’s rap verses defined their sound, making them one of the best-selling bands of all time.
