"Be Aggressive" is a song by Faith No More that was first released on their 1992 album Angel Dust and as a double A-side single with "Easy" at the end of 1992 then latter on the 2003 greatest hits compilation This Is It: The Best of Faith No More. It was written solely by keyboardist Roddy Bottum. When asked about the song's meaning he replied:
| “ | Swallowing. It was a pretty fun thing to write, knowing that Mike was going to have to put himself on the line and go up on-stage and sing these vocals.[2] | ” |
Despite that, it became their eighth most played song live, and was first seen on-stage six days before the albums release.[3]
