Band,
A.k.a. Hybrid Theory (2) Linkin Park
The rapcore band Xero was formed by Mike Shinoda and Brad Delson, and later Joseph Hahn, Rob Bourdon and Mark Wakefield joined the band. In 1997, they released their first and only demo tape, which has four songs on it. Singer Mark left the band after they failed to get a recording contract with a label, and was replaced with Chester Bennington, who sang at this time for the grunge band Grey Daze. Shortly before Chester joined, the band was renamed to Hybrid Theory (2), and one year later, they renamed again to Linkin Park.
