"Up from the Bottom" is a song by American rock band Linkin Park. It was released on March 27, 2025, as the lead single from the deluxe edition of the band's eighth studio album From Zero.[1][2]

Background

[edit]

After the initial touring leg for their From Zero World Tour in late 2024, the band immediately entered the studio to record new music.[3] "Up from the Bottom" started as an initial demo before properly materalising during recording sessions in early 2025.[4] A then untitled song was teased during a video for the LPTV series that was uploaded to the band's YouTube channel on March 6, 2025.[5] On March 17, the band officially revealed "Up from the Bottom", due for release on March 27.[6] In an interview with Billboard on the lead up to the release at the iHeartRadio Music Awards, the band's turntablist gave the song high praise, jokingly calling it "the best song we've ever made".[7][8] On March 27, the band released the song as the lead single from the deluxe editon of their eighth studio album From Zero.[9][10] The single was made avaliable on Fortnite Festival on the day of its release.[11]

Composition

[edit]

"Up from the Bottom" was described by critics as a nu metal,[12] rap rock,[12] and a pop-punk song.[13]

Music video

[edit]

The music video was directed by Joe Hahn and premiered on March 27, 2025.[14]

The video features the band performing in a giant room. It then switches to each band member in different scenarios, Hahn in a coma, Colin Brittain locked inside a prison that is being surrounded by guards, Mike Shinoda trying to escape a concrete building through the ceiling, Brad Delson walking around a room, Emily Armstrong putting on a bandana, and Dave Farrell being locked in a box while wearing a straitjacket. During Mike Shinoda's rapping part, he gives away his guitar to Emily before he takes it back for the last chorus. According to Hahn, the scenarios represent the feeling for them, when they heard the song.
