- Linkin Park is an American rock band from Agoura Hills, California. Originally consisting of three high school friends, Linkin Park’s foundation was anchored by Mike Shinoda and Brad Delson along with Rob Bourdon. After graduating from high school, the California natives began to take their musical interests more seriously, recruiting Joe Hahn, Dave "Phoenix" Farrell, and Mark Wakefield to perform in their band then titled Xero. Though limited in resources, the band began recording and producing songs within Shinoda’s make-shift bedroom studio in 1996. After they failed to land a record deal, however, tensions and frustration within the band grew, and the lack of success and stalemate in progress prompted Wakefield, at that time the band's vocalist, to leave the band in search for other projects. Farrell also left the to tour with other bands. Linkin Park released its debut album Hybrid Theory on October 24, 2000. In 2001, the band won a Grammy Award for Best Rock Album. Linkin Park's second album Meteora sold more than 800,000 copies during its first week, and it ranked as the best selling album on the Billboard charts at the time. "Breaking the Habit", a single from the album, won an MTV Asia Award. "Somewhere I Belong", also on Meteora, won a MTV Video Music Award. After the success of Meteora, the band postponed working on a new studio album for several years. Linkin Park continued to tour and work on side projects; during the same period, Bennington appeared on DJ Lethal’s State of the Art and worked with Dead By Sunrise, while Shinoda worked with Depeche Mode. In 2004, the band worked with Jay-Z to produce an album entitled Collision Course; "Numb/Encore", a single from the album, won a Grammy Award the next year. Linkin Park's most recent album Minutes to Midnight was released in 2007 despite initially stating the album would debut in 2006. The album was nominated for a TMF Award in 2007, while "What I've Done", a single from the album, was nominated for an MTV Video Music Award. Linkin Park has recently won in the Favourite International Artist of Asia category at the 2008 MTV Asia Awards. Overall, Linkin Park has received 21 awards from 42 nominations.
- 聯合公園(Linkin Park)是來自美國加州亞哥拉山(Agoura Hills)的搖滾樂團。樂團最初是由三個高中時代的好友組成,聯合公園最初由麥克·信田、布萊德·達爾森和羅伯·博登發起。在高中畢業後,這些來自加州的音樂家決定認真發展他們的音樂事業,他們找來了喬瑟夫·漢恩(Joe Hahn)、戴維·法雷爾(Dave Farrell)和馬克·維克菲爾(Mark Wakefield)加入樂團,並取名為「Xero」。雖然資源有限,但在1996年樂團開始錄製和製作歌曲,而他們的錄音室是由麥克·信田的房間改裝而成。在他們與唱片公司簽約失敗之後,樂團內部的爭執和緊張氣氛開始浮現,而在過程中遇到的挫折和僵局,讓當時的主唱維克菲爾決定離開樂團,尋求其他的發展機會。戴維·法雷爾也離開了樂團,加入「Tasty Snax」和其他樂團進行巡迴演唱。 之後樂團招募主唱,後來選定了查斯特·班寧頓當此團主唱後,原本離開本團的戴維·法雷爾重新歸隊,和樂團展開新的音樂之路。 在2000年10月24日,聯合公園推出了首張專輯《混合理論》(Hybrid Theory)。在2001年,樂團贏得葛萊美獎的最佳搖滾專輯獎項。聯合公園的第二張專輯《天空之城—美特拉》(Meteora)在發行第一週就銷售超過八百萬張,並在告示牌排行榜中列為最暢銷專輯。專輯中的單曲〈Breaking the Habit〉贏得MTV亞洲大獎。另一支專輯中的單曲〈Somewhere I Belong〉贏得MTV音樂錄影帶大獎。在《天空之城—美特拉》的成功後,樂團延後了製作新專輯的時間。聯合公園繼續進行巡迴演唱會和其他周邊計畫,在這段期間班寧頓在DJ Lethal的《State of the Art》演出,並與死亡日出(Dead By Sunrise)樂團合作,而信田則與「Depeche Mode」合作。在2004年,樂團與傑斯(Jay-Z)合作,製作了《衝擊理論》(Collision Course)專輯,其中的單曲〈Numb/Encore〉,在隔年獲得了葛萊美獎,聯合公園的最近期專輯《末日警鐘 毀滅·新生》(Minutes to Midnight)在2007年發行,雖然原本預定是於2006年推出。這張專輯在2007年獲得TMF大獎(TMF Award)提名,而專輯中〈What I've Done〉單曲也獲得MTV音樂錄影帶大獎提名。聯合公園最近在2008年MTV亞洲音樂大獎中贏得亞洲最受歡迎國際藝人(Favourite International Artist of Asia)獎項。總計聯合公園目前共有40個提名記錄,其中贏得19項大獎。
