"Bleed It Out" was the second single from Minutes to Midnight, Linkin Park's third album, in 2007, and it's the band at its loosest and rowdiest. Rick Rubin and Mike Shinoda produced, and the track barrels along: Shinoda rapping fast and hard over a stomping beat, Chester Bennington tearing into the chorus with his throat wide open. The whole band shares the writing credit.
They debuted it live at Webster Hall in New York in May 2007 and played it on Saturday Night Live the next night, then again in Tokyo for Live Earth that July. Rolling Stone put it at #44 among the 100 best songs of 2007, and it later landed in Guitar Hero: Warriors of Rock.
