So I've come across a really fucking cool piano rendition of Linkin Park's "Numb", but I have no idea who did it or what album it's from. Does anyone have any idea where I can pick an album of Linkin Park piano songs up?

I had no idea Linkin Park's music would translate so well to other genres. Weird. Cool, but weird.

I found an album of bluegrass versions and they are pretty awesome.

I also found this site, which includes piano renditions of "Numb" and a few others. (Hope it's the performance you were looking for.) I'll poke around a bit more and see if I can find out who did this, and if it's available for sale.

Enjoy :)

If it's a woman it might be Myleene Klass. She's moved out of pop music and onto classical piano but i hear she also puts in modern music too.

You might also be interested in some cello renditions of Metallica songs too. A group from Finland called Apocalyptica does those. Best Album is Plays Metallica By Four Cellos.

Definately. Apocalyptica is occasionally better than their source material.

Maybe I'm just a sucker for variety, but they break the standard Guitar/Bass/Drums/Vocals requirement, and they do it well.
