the group claiming to be his and not of Chester. He knew in his early years

be called Linkin Park. He heard the demo and like the style of music they had
created, Chester provided the phoned want to join the band as their request,
they sang a piece of the model he had received. To Mike, Brad, Rob and Joe

Mike Shinoda
Mike Shinoda
Real
name: Michael Kenji Shinoda
He
was born on February 11, 1977 in Agoura, California. His ancestors were Japanese

the music business was during his high school years, when he attended a concert
where there were Anthrax and Public Enemy. He began taking piano lessons when I
was very small.
Is
rejected by his label, wanting to just play the keyboard and not rap, which was
completely change the course of his life, but his way and now is known for
giving the rap style to Linkin Park.
Mike
Shinoda in 2009.
His
versatility as a musician has to listen to songs like In The End, where he
sings most of his usual rap, or One Step Closer with vocals much like Metal, In
Between, which is completely absent from the rap and you hear a soft melodic
rock, soft, Bleed it Out, where he presents a new style of rap combined with
the edge of Chester Bennington. Among other songs, besides being the member of
the band Linkin Park who plays more musical instruments.
But
his greatest contrast is found in Fort Minor, and that its virtues out rapping,
a feature that has not carried out on the album Minutes to Midnight so often as
in other albums already. However, it should be noted in the latest album from
Linkin Park, Minutes To Midnight, the song No Roads Left, composed and full
cantanda for him, where he shows his great talent not only rapping, but also
with melodic vocals.
Mike
started playing guitar more times in the Linkin Park concert, which years ago
were not used to, but the fusion between guitars of Linkin Park is now an
element that provides additional capabilities to the group when playing live.
Mike along with his childhood friend (Mark Wakefield) (under the pseudonym
White Pegacorn) recorded a song called Barack Your World in giving its support
to candidate Barack Obama in the 2008 elections. Barack Your World is actually
a parody video included. This year 2010 has been busy recording the new album
by Linkin Park called A Thousand Suns which went on sale in September of that
year.

(California) in 1996 and formed Xero with Mike Shinoda, who later became Linkin
Park. He attended and graduated from the University of California (Los
Angeles), specializing in communication During college, Delson had to deal with
a member of the music industry as part of his career. He ended up working for

Delson Linkin Park at a concert in Dallas, Texas on August 4, 2007.

you create Xero, Delson's first instrument was the trumpet. His first band was
called Pricks and also played in a band called Relative Degree with his fellow
Linkin Park Rob Bourdon. He met his bandmate Dave Farrell at UCLA.
A
Delson is often seen with a couple of large headphones on stage, apparently for
purely aesthetic reasons, they seem to have no function during concerts. The
headphones are designed by Shinoda and change with each release. Delson has
never responded seriously to why wearing your headset, usually avoids such
questions with answers Funny as "If I tell you, I'll have to kill
you."
Is
often criticized for playing simple guitar parts and never alone star. He
explained that this is due to the simplistic nature of the band and the fact
that attempts to adjust the sound of your guitar to keyboard, drums and hip hop
and electronic music of the band. However in the Minutes to Midnight album is
more experimental sound practice where you can see the guitar solos on songs
like In Pieces.
