RAP ROCK Chester Bennington's Bathos is Embarrassing by Nathan Thornburgh Linkin Park, Taproot Showbox, 628-3151, Fri Jan 26.
Rap rock is in.
Suburban rage ripples throughout the music industry. White American men still have it better than anyone in the history of mankind, but regardless, it's time to strap on a wallet chain, put on a Public Enemy T-shirt, and start caterwauling into the microphone. In short, it's Chester Bennington time. He's sold a million records since November. His band, Linkin Park, is playing a sold-out show at the Showbox on Friday.
