Linkin Park has announced their first concert since singer Chester Bennington died in July. The hard-rock group will perform a one-off “celebration” to honor Bennington on Oct. 27 at the Hollywood Bowl in Los Angeles. The performance will feature “a number of other artists,” according to a press release. Linkin Park’s members plan to donate their fees from the gig to Music For Relief’s One More Light Fund; Bennington and the rest of Linkin Park began the charity Music For Relief following the 2004 Indian Ocean tsunami, and the One More Light Fund was established after Bennington’s death.

Over the past few years a general nostalgia for the 1980s has infiltrated music, film, and television. I deeply love those gated reverb drums of the '80s - you know that punchy percussive sound popularized by Phil Collins and Prince? So for my second episode of Vox Pop’s Earworm I spoke with two Berklee College of Music professors, Susan Rogers and Prince Charles Alexander, to figure out just how that sound came to be, what makes it so damn punchy, and why it’s back.
