Mike talked about Chester's solo project on SPIN! He's surely proud of his boy and is promoting Chester the best he can ;)

What else is on tap for the band?
Chester's solo project, Dead by Sunrise, is going to come out later this year. He's been working on it for a few years. I think he's looking at sometime around a September release date.

Has the rest of Linkin Park contributed to it?
We actually haven't. It's much more of a straight-up rock-based record. Howard Benson [My Chemical Romance, All-American Rejects] produced it and Chris Lord-Alge [Green Day, AFI] mixed it. This is what Chester sounds like on his own. I'm really proud of him for taking the reins on his album and going from concept to completion all the way through, guiding it on his own. It definitely sounds different from a Linkin Park record.

Can't wait to hear some material from Dead by Sunrise!

Also, the awesome Ana (LPHQ) has put up a new Phoenix Farrell fansite. Beautiful layout and a lot of yummy pics here (no doubt, she's the queen of HQs ^___^). She would be the newest affiliate of ours. Come and support her (I'm loving this site!)
