Papercuts feature 18 ‘essential anthems,’ including “Crawling,” “In the End,” “One Step Closer” and “Numb.” The album will also feature the never-before-released track “Friendly Fire” and the fan-favourite rarity “QWERTY.”

“Curating the tracks for Papercuts was a joy,” vocalist Mike Shinoda said. “Each song in this collection is both a singular moment on our timeline and an evolving story that is as much ours as it is yours. From our first release ‘One Step Closer’ to the brand-new “Friendly Fire,” this track list spans all our chapters so far. Thank you for being a part of our journey. We hope you enjoy Papercuts.”
