Linkin Park performed three tracks from their new album on Jimmy Kimmel last night (20 June). Watch the performances below.

The band released their sixth album, The Hunting Party, this week, and showcased three of the album's songs on the US talk show.

'Until It's Gone' and 'Guilty All The Same', the album's two singles so far, kicked off the show, before the band played preview track 'Wastelands'.

The album version of 'Guilty All The Same' features guest rapper Rakim, but his part was instead performed by Mike Shinoda for their Kimmel performance.

Speaking to Kerrang of The Hunting Party's title, Shinoda said: "We got so sick of other bands trying to be other bands and playing it safe the whole time, so the album name comes from a theory about culture becoming too passive, everyone just standing around waiting for opportunities to come to them instead of going out and getting theirs."

He added: "I'm aware there are always going to be heavier bands than us, but The Hunting Party is Linkin Park going out and getting it for ourselves."

The Hunting Party was released on 13 June.
