Berk: Linkin Park targets collaborations with Horrors and more
Prepping the market ahead of a company jolly in January, Chester Bennington laid the ground for Linkin Park to develop enterprising new partnerships in the UK.
Collaborations, then - Amy Winehouse, Babyshambles, Arctic Monkeys and most of all the Horrors. All the classics.
"There is some collaborations we're thinking about working on right now,” said the grammatically challenged rocker.
“But I can't say who they are yet in case it doesn't happen. There's so many great artists out right now, I could just put a bunch of names in a hat and pick one and it'd be really cool.
"There's a lot of British artists - I think Amy Winehouse is really good, I heard a Babyshambles song the other day and I thought it was really interesting and actually kinda cool and I was surprised by that as I wasn't sure what to expect.
"Arctic Monkeys are really great and I also really like The Horrors, they're probably my favourite band right now."

Are you sure it was Babyshambles then?
Actually
I'd be intrigued to hear a collaboration between Babyshambles and Linkin Park out of sheer curiosity.
Once.
Agreed.
.
how is it possible
...to not know what to expect and be suprised anyway? Oh Chester...
Ps. Have yo heard the rumours of impending 'pundemonium'? Keeps your eyes on the prize.
Pun.
I'm generally not pleased
With the use of the term 'berk'.
Yeah I'll stop whining in a bit.
