DEAD BY SUNRISE Out Of Ashes (2009 UK 12-track CD album - Chester Bennington is stepping outside [but not away] from Linkin Park. His side project Dead By Sunrise has seen him reinvent himself. 'Out Of Ashes' is the first album from this new project, bringing in Ryan Shuck and Amir Derakh [formerly of Orgy] and current Julien-K members, Brandon Belsky, Elias Andra, and Anthony 'FU' Valcic - Bennington gives fans a revealing look at the man behind the voice. Throughout the 12-song collection, DBS move skilfully between the kind of explosive rockers Bennington is known for, such as the opening 'Fire' and the frenetic energy of 'My Suffering', and some surprisingly tender moments, like the beautifully melodic, mid-tempo 'Let Down' and the rhythmically hypnotic 'Walking In Circles')
