"Pts.OF.Athrty" (pronounced "Points of Authority") is the first remix single by the nu metal band Linkin Park, from their 2002 remix album "Reanimation". The single features remixes of the "Hybrid Theory" tracks "Points of Authority," "High Voltage" and "By Myself"."Pts.OF.Athrty" was remixed by Jay Gordon from Orgy, "H! Vltg3" was remixed by Evidence featuring Pharoahe Monch, while "By Myself" was remixed by Marilyn Manson. The remixes of "Points of Authority" and "High Voltage" are the same as those found on the standard release of "Reanimation", while the remix of "Buy Myself" is a different version found only on the CD Single, the Japanese version and on iTunes as a bonus track.

There was also an alternate version of Jay Gordon's "Pts.Of.Athrty" remix, which surfaced on a Jay Gordon remix page in 2008 [ [http://www.panoramaniacal.com/gordonsamplepage.htm Jay Gordon Samples ] ] . It is now known that this version is a demo of the song.

"Pts.OF.Athrty" music video

This remix of "Points of Authority" is renowned for its video, a completely CGI battle between robots, ruled by the heads of Linkin Park members, and an alien race.

The heads of all six Linkin Park members are kept in a digital lab equipped with computers and advanced equipment which can be seen extracting something from the heads as Chester Bennington and Mike Shinoda sing. According to Mr. Hahn, the band members' heads are powering the world.

At the very end of the video, the commander of the alien race tries to battle the blue tentacles that was released by the members' heads, but gets his gun ripped out of his hand, and is enveloped by them.

Director Joe Hahn explained that the events of the video took place after the end of the human race and all that's left are the heads of the six Linkin Park members. The video is also said to have been inspired by the dream sequences in the 2001 film Final Fantasy: The Spirits Within.

The music video was aired on Cartoon Network as a commercial break(around the year 2000).

There is also a video for "Points of Authority" from "Hybrid Theory" which contains footage of the band playing live.
