"In My Remains" (working title: "One Forty") is a song by American rock band Linkin Park from their fifth studio album, Living Things.

Composition

"In My Remains" features piano melodies and military percussion,[1] as well as mid-tempo beats.[2] The song has been compared to Chester Bennington's side-project Dead by Sunrise with its chanted bridge.[3] The song has been described as a "military-like rat-a-tat".[4] AltSounds describes the song as "a familiar laid-back striding rock vibe with catchy hooks and emotive piano chords over suitably thick chunks of percussion".[5] Billboard mentions that the "production here lends to Linkin Park's overall potency, with the crisp verses sliding succinctly into the song's refrains".[6]

Reception

Loudwire praises Rob Bourdon's work for the song, calling him "an unsung hero on this disc, with a solid breakdown during 'In My Remains'".[7] Country Times praises the song, saying "very skillfully put together and will sound great on the next Transformers soundtrack".[8] Asian Age comments that the song "could easily make it to a superheroes movie soundtrack, with their heavy rhythm guitar sounds blending well with Bennington's punchy vocals and big choruses. It is also stated that it can be used as a space-voyage soundtrack".[9]
