"Casualty" is the sixth track from Linkin Park's eighth studio album, From Zero. It is the shortest full song on the album coming in at two minutes and twenty seconds.

Background

The band began working on 'Casualty' rather late into the From Zero sessions. At this point in the band's return, Brad was still hesitant to return to the studio and begin working on music again, even though he knew that sessions were happening between Mike, Dave, Joe, Emily, and Colin. They kept the door open for him, not pressuring him to join back but also expressing the value in his perspective. Once he finally entered the studio, he was fully on board and, according to Mike, said "I think we can write something heavier. Like, way heavier."[1]

Emily wrote the lines in the chorus, surprising Mike with the intensity of her delivery. Emily said she took inspiration from her live performances with Dead Sara when performing on the track.
