Linkin Park frontman Chester Bennington has spoken out about his band’s chances of being inducted into the Rock And Roll Hall Of Fame.
The prestigious honour has been bestowed on artists since 1986, with performers becoming eligible for induction 25 years after the release of their debut album. Elvis Presley, The Beatles, Bob Dylan, Janis Joplin, David Bowie, The Velvet Underground, Joni Mitchell and more have all been inducted previously.
Bennington believes that the nu metal group will one day be amongst those greats, rating their chances of future induction at “a hundred percent” in an interview with Boston radio station WZLX 100.7.
“There’s no way that we can’t be,”
he said on the Karlson & McKenzie show. “Biggest-debuting album of the 21st century. I mean, how can you not get in?”
