LINKIN PARK Frontman Talks To MTV About DEAD BY SUNRISE

August 22, 2009

The German branch of MTV conducted an interview earlier this month with LINKIN PARK singer Chester Bennington about his side project, DEAD BY SUNRISE. Watch the chat below.

DEAD BY SUNRISE recently finished filming videos for the songs "Crawl Back In" and "Let Down". with director P.R. Brown (SLIPKNOT, MÖTLEY CRÜE, KORN, GODSMACK, AVENGED SEVENFOLD). Both tracks will appear on the band's debut album, "Out Of Ashes", which is scheduled for release on October 13.

Bennington began working on DEAD BY SUNRISE back in 2006, explaining, "I came up with a few songs that felt and sounded really good, but I knew they weren't right stylistically for LINKIN PARK. They were darker and moodier than anything I'd come up with for the band. So I decided to work on them on my own rather than turn them over and have them transformed into LINKIN PARK tracks."

The band, which is Bennington on vocals, guitarists Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh (from ORGY/JULIEN-K),bassist Brandon Belsky, drummer Elias Anda (also from JULIEN-K),and keyboardist Anthony Valcic, recorded "Out Of Ashes" in Los Angeles with producer Howard Benson (MOTÖRHEAD, MY CHEMICAL ROMANCE).
