Shadow of the Day by Linkin Park (Cover by Austin Criswell)

I shot this quickly with my cell phone. But, with the sad news of Chester, from Linkin Park, coming out I wanted to post a video. I still remember listening to their first album when it came out. My good friend Bryan and I would play video games and listen to it. Their music was a big part of my life. This is one of my favorite songs of theirs and I find the lyrics fitting.
