When Linkin Park burst onto the nu-metal/rap metal scene in 2000 with their debut album, the aptly named “Hybrid Theory,” they immediately ripped the back-slash from between the two genres and smashed their two heads together in a blend that for many would be the final word on the subject. The interplay between lead singer Chester Bennington and MC Mike Shinoda was the double helix of this new lifeform; their unique stylings, along with an atmospheric, light/dark pop sensibility and a healthy dose of electronic artiness, set Linkin Park aside from the rest of the pack and rocketed them to international stardom.
This album, “A Bluegrass Tribute to Linkin Park,” pays homage to their vocal ingenuity and musical creativity. Utilizing their impeccable voices and masterful playing, bluegrass group Cornbread Red bridge the gap between two seemingly disparate musical styles in a way that will make perfect sense once you hear the music. In the end, you’ll find this record matters…
