They had to change it to Linkin Park (inspired by Lincoln Park in Santa Monica) due to legal issues with a Welsh electronic group also named Hybrid. Label Skepticism: Warner Bros. Records initially passed on the band three times before signing them. They were even skeptical during the recording process, with some label representatives suggesting that Chester Bennington should ditch Mike Shinoda to make a purely rock record! Chester refused. Chester Wasn't a Fan of "In the End": Despite becoming one of Linkin Park's biggest hits, Chester Bennington initially didn't like "In the End" and didn't even want it on the album. How wrong he was! Dave "Phoenix" Farrell's Absence: While a core member, bassist Dave "Phoenix" Farrell did not play on "Hybrid Theory" due to previous touring commitments with his other band, Tasty Snax. He is, however, credited as a songwriter on some tracks. Aggression from Conflict: Some of the intense frustration and aggression heard on the album directly stemmed from creative tensions and power struggles with the label and producer during the recording sessions. #LinkinPark #HybridTheory #FullAlbum #NuMetal #AlternativeMetal #ChesterBennington #MikeShinoda #ClassicAlbums #2000sMusic #Music #Remastered #DiamondCertified #OneStepCloser #InTheEnd #Crawling #Papercut
