"Pts.Of.Athrty" (Official HD Video) - Linkin Park

[@biltrex]

I was one of the animators on this video back in 2002. It was a lot of fun to work on. Interesting fact: Most of the animators and effects artists who made Firefly worked on this video. In fact, we did the pilot for Firefly right before this, and then started on the series not long after it.

This used to play late at night on Cartoon Network as a filler in-between different shows. IIRC, I was a 4th or 5th grader at the time. CN didnt display credits (or maybe I missed them), so I had no clue who made the song. Fast-forward 6 years and in 10th grade, a friend at school burned a CD full of Linkin Park tunes for me. The moment I hit play on this one, I was transported back to my childhood. THIS song made sure I turned into a rock/metal head. RIP Chester Bennington and thanks for making my childhood awesome

I was a pure rap fan all throughout my teenage years, and this was the first linkin park song I ever saw/heard. I think it was on one of the MTV channels back in the early 00's. The beat, Chester's voice, the rap, and this video completely blew me away, and ever since then I have been a massive fan. It's funny how one song can change your perception of an artist, and a whole music genre, but I'll never forget that moment that it did.

[@kanatapaw]

[@virginiaordaya]

Breaking the Habit opened my eyes to the fact that I hadn’t been emotionally mature enough to relate to Linkin Park before that. It was a watershed moment for me. I have Borderline Personality Disorder and only after acknowledging that and working on it could I see how so many of their songs mapped directly onto large portions of my life and my experiences. It breaks my heart knowing just how much pain and confusion and frustration and hopelessness Cheater felt in life 💔 I wish I could help everyone who’s like me but unfortunately a characteristic of the problem is frequently an inability to see yourself as you truly are - for better or for worse. Sadly he couldn’t see the good in himself and his potential. I hope with every fiber of my being that there’s more than this life and he was given the peace he couldn’t find here when he left us.

In a similar way, look at Johnny Cash's last album. He covers a very wide variety of genres- bringing people who haven't dabbled in "other styles of music".....together. Take "Hurt" for example- all the people who never/would not willingly listen to NIN, were suddenly exposed to something that they could relate to and took the chance to listen to more of Trent's music. I think if someone were to release a cover album of HT- in a completely different format, it would draw even more people to the LP fan base.

@@Skorpeonismyrealname It looks great, although that probably was made in high resolution in 2002 still, only downgraded to 480p to air in 4:3 televisions at the time as VHS or DVD, that why all those old movies from the 80-90s get re-released in HD as if they were made nowdays.

[@chazy123]

​@@revilhunter I don't think so, this is computer generated (CGI) which has nothing to do with filming. The original release video was probably rendered at 240p and now with the original project they probably just re-rendered it at 1080p. Now, with most old movies they used 35mm film which depending on the lines per mm the film was rated at, they could contain enough detail and information for more than 4k resolution images (some even 8k and probably a few capable of 16k), so it was just a matter of developing/digitizing it. For example, by playing a 4k video in a 1080p display, the display physically lacks the necessary pixels to draw all of them. Except back then the analog/digital videos were so low res that the displays had to duplicate pixels to fill the screen (which still happens today, except it's way less noticeable due to enough pixels/info).

[@kaizze8777]

15 Year old me loved this. 15 years later me still does.

[@benkenobi7800]

I been looking for this song for 20 years...

[@ralaznable8640]

Same here bro.

[@Murtallica929]

why has this not been adapted into a freaking movie or video game, this is intense

[@mystery8001]

My first encounter to linkin park. Rest in peace Chester . We love you and miss you

[@IsYourNameToby]

Man, Chester, today's such a sad day now. I was just listening to this song with my little brother a couple days ago. He showed me you in Good Mythical Morning and asked me about a song that would play on Cartoon Network. I immediately knew what he was talking about and we jammed out to this and many of your other songs for the rest of the day. Your music has been a major part of my life ever since I first heard Crawling back when I was in Middle School, and I don't think I've ever made a single friend who wasn't a fan of your music. You perfectly express all the feelings and struggles that each of us have. I just can't handle it, we lost Chris Cornell, Chi (Deftones), and Kei (Pay money to My Pain), and many other amazing people who continue to give people hope and inspiration. Your voice and message will always live on, but you'll still be forever missed. Thank you for sharing your feelings and pain with us, and I hope you've found peace now.

[@arunodoygoswami8835]

The song that made me fall in love with Linkin Park

[@doorlopen]

Chester was part of my childhood.. i feel robbed. RIP.. I know you've been very important to a lot of people.

[@nichtolarchotolok]

The song perfectly describes my struggles with my parents, me always trying to please them while they take pleasure in the awful things they've put me through, in their endless effort to re establish their points of authority over me. And now after all of it, I am only left with negativity and a broken pride.

[@notfeedynotlazy]

That sucks. And not even with giant mecha in the mix, I bet. Could be worse, mate. At least surely there were no tentacles involved.

[@nnamdiabii9510]

I was so blown away by this video and song back then. Watching it now I still get goosebumps seeing how good it was. Sad that Chester is gone but he left one hell of a legacy behind. Rest in power forever bro. You were, are and will always be a legend.

[@Pythius1986]

i know right? may be a old video but i absolutely love it the drop/animation absolute masterpiece on the reanimation album. right up there with my December remix

[@nruin-p9431]

i'm just a little girl back when i watch cartoons. at night i saw this music video. all those years this gave nostalgia. finally i have found this video on my thought, this is the reason i like Video Games and Action.

[@ciguana2mlgprovideo388]

And anime

[@nruin-p9431]

and mostly Triple A Games that are too matured for my age.

[@siddharthvikramsingh4605]

That grim yet ecstatic feeling you get while listening to this music. Just like the feeling one gets before going to war. No wonder they made this up.

[@BattleBrickState]

I am so glad that 6-year-old me decided to leave MTV on to watch this MV back in 2003. Or was it on Cartoon Network

[@someguy1747]

Cartoon Network used to show this during the early 2000s, suffice to say since I was very young then this video always scared me due to how surreal it looked. Now as I'm older I came to appreciate this.

[@RafaelCarvalho-nj7lt]

I didn't think this animation could get any better but they managed to get it in HD. It looks better, yet still pereserving the cool graphics

[@gintanga4002]

I've been looking for the name of this song for ages, had to look up "Linkin Park with robots in music video"for it to show up

[@Iris777]

Hahahaha I combed through their youtube page!

[@Lemniskaten]

I typed in "linkin park alien battle" :D

[@Arkhaos12x]

SAME. I remembered watching this on MTV or VH1 back in the day at a friend's house but literally couldn't even remember whose song it was. I googled "Sci fi music video with floating heads" and it came up.

[@hiboo2130]

Back in highschool past 10 at night always binge watch some toonami/adultswim waiting for this to come up. 1 outta 12 times in my favor does it play out. Then back some years ago kept typing in yt search Points of Authority, always the new version came out. Scrolled down a wee bit further and saw it as Pts of Athrty abbreviation. Good old dumbass yet all worth it times lol.

[@SoloKrauT]

My google search "linkin park anime music video" XD

[@MartinXBrina]

Unpopular fact: This video is 100x better than all of Skibidi Toilet videos.

[@TheDonny01]

If only this were a game.....

[@nEdragUnn]

Let's make it.

[@TheAlexSGT]

There is a similar game genre WH:40K. Tech humans vs Protoss like aliens

[@Treyson]

This video looks a LOT like Halo 1! Check it out sometime.

[@hunterinfected6]

Warframe

[@Commski]

Watched the MV of this song when I was a kid more than 10 years ago and was amazed by the animation. Can't remember the title of this song when I wanted to search for it yesterday, so I literally typed "Linkin Park MV Monster Fighting" and got this as the result.

[@muhammedzariff1098]

#RIP Chester. You'll always be my favourite.

[@jhonny1416]

Muhammed Zariff Enoff with that crap, hes gone acept it

[@dudeeggsmith1839]

Hes paying his respects shut your fucking mouth bitch RIP chester what a legend

[@Anti_Aaron21]

With him being gone, was like losing a childhood friend. Yes we didn't know him personally but I "we" grew up with the music. We can mourn as much as we want

[@jg8060]

It was the Illuminati that killed him. Apparently he and Chris Cornell were about to expose some Hollywood Pedophiles.

[@ya64]

After all these years, this song still kicks ass!

[@nathanter7622]

the dopest music video EVER made

[@clostridiumbotulinum5693]

I was 4 yrs old when this was released in cartoon network, and loved chester for years (15), rip buddy.

"You want someone to hurt like you.." I guess Chester foretold Social Media.. Even in death, i still hear you.. Til this day, i appreciate all the lessons in life you've put in your lyrics.. Thank u Chester.. 😥

Read into the lyric with what we now know today. Its fucking haunting. RIP man wish I could met you:/

@@mr.t-bagyou3529 this used to be my favourite lp song now I dont think I'll ever listen to it the same way with enjoyment like I did now we know what he went through

[@mikesantiago14]

isn't this song about an abuser or something similar? that line's more like "you abuse someone so they feel the same pain you felt when you were abused"

[@12eveal]

I remember watching this when it first came out! :)

[@mikkigaming3635]

Anybody else gets a bit sad when you hear chester screaming in the background at 3:30 it's like he's screaming as a ghost.

This video aged well. I remember coming back from school and waiting for MTV to play this specific song. So, make sure our future generations can enjoy this outstanding animation as I did back in the 2000s.

I LOVE Point of Authority! My favorite Song of all time from you guys. Both normal and Remix. Stay strong, we love you.

Seen this clip on MTV when I was young ! first time I heard about Linkin Park

[@Levrifon]

Haha i thought I was the only one ! There are so much music clip that I don't exactly remember from MTV i searched a lot but didn't find some :/

[@blank8197]

Fábio Dessler This scared the crap out a me and it was cool to me when I was young. Now it doesn't scare me

[@Levrifon]

ha ha same ! maybe that's why I remember.. and because of the robot's fight of course :p

[@Gillan1220]

I saw this both in MTV and Cartoon Network

[@ProxyDoug]

Same. I thought it was related to Final Fantasy Spirits Within.

[@shxde]

still coming back to this masterpiece

[@jezzer77777]

One of the best music videos ever made

[@wm6043]

imagine this scenes: -Reanimation album is never exist before -20th years later, today, Linkin Park drop Reanimation album for the first time.

[@TatiHatz]

That would be the greatest anniversarry "comeback" of all time . But so many people wouldn't have made all these unique memories at the time while listening to this album man

[@abdaf8706]

Or maybe the sales was not that great since rock alternative is not our mainstream genre anymore

[@jailcatjones3250]

Their is 3 different reanimated type albums. They did one for meteora and a Thousand Suns as well.

[@thrashsis]

But RHCP already did it before, it's awesome too

Thank you Chester for the incredible music.

I don't understand why there are so few views and likes. When I saw this clip for the first time, I fell in love with Linkin Park, and the clip itself became my favorite video for a very, very long time!!!!
