Composition

"Up From the Bottom" has been described by critics as nu metal.^[12]

Music video

The music video was directed by Joe Hahn and premiered on March 27, 2025.^[13]

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.
