Bennington and his Dead by Sunrise bandmates (who hail from the electronic rock band Julien-K) also display a deft touch with atmospherics and textures on tracks like "Too Late," "Give Me Your Name" and the goth-tinged "Let Down," among others
-
As a whole, Out of Ashes is a solid record and a fine opening volley for Bennington's solo work.
-
As a rock star side project, though, Dead by Sunrise has an unlikely fault--it's not nearly indulgent enough.
-
The album is oddly inert, lacking both the brute force and big choruses that raised Linkin Park to rap-rock godhead status.
-
Mr. Bennington strives to sound sympathetic, but after a song or two it’s clear that his only sympathy is for himself; there’s no humility, much less humor or proportion. As real as his prolonged adolescent angst is supposed to be, it quickly curdles into narcissism.
