Papa Roach
Description
Known for the metal anthems "Last Resort" and "Scars," Papa Roach is an enduring figure in the turn-of-the-century nu-metal scene. The band's 2000 album Infest went triple-platinum in the U.S. on the strength of "Last Resort." That was followed by Lovehatetragedy in 2002 (certified gold) and Getting Away with Murder in 2004 (certified platinum). Their concerts are a non-stop barrage that covers the band's twenty-plus years and, recently, a blazing cover of "Firestarter" by electronic act The Prodigy.
In a great interview with Billboard's Behind the Setlist, Papa Roach singer Jacoby Shaddix and guitarist Jerry Horton talk about their stage show, maturing, starting their own record label and what T-shirt sells best on tour.
The band is hitting the road this summer with European dates through before the opening for Shinedown on The Revolutions Live Tour starting Sept. 3 in St. Lous, MO.
