Papercut is a song by American rock band Linkin Park. It was released as the third single from their debut album Hybrid Theory (2000) and appears as the opening track on the record. It combines multiple genres in a way that Chester Bennington said captured the essence of the band. He also said it was one of his favorite Linkin Park tracks. The song reached number 14 on the UK Singles Chart, and was certified Gold by the Recording Industry Association of America.
Papercut is the opening track on the band's debut album Hybrid Theory. It was released on 18 June 2001 as the second single from the record. The band's previous single, Crawling, included a live performance of the track as a B-side.
The song has also been released in various forms as remixes. Linkin Park's remix album Reanimation (2002) features a version of Papercut remixed by Cheapshot and entitled "Ppr:Kut". The band's EP collaborating with Jay-Z, Collision Course (2004) features a mash up the track with Jay-Z's Big Pimpin'.
Rolling Stone described the track as opening the album with a hip-hop beat that gives way to 4-bit-infused alt-rock heaviness. Mike Shinoda says the song combines three genres within its first 20 seconds a beat inspired by Timbaland, nu-metal style guitars, and drum and bass.
