Papa Roach 2017-05-17 11:11 CEST PAPA ROACH SLÄPPER ALBUM - KOMMER TILL SVERIGE Senast Kalifornien-bandet var i Sverige var det tillsammans med Five Finger Death Punch på ett slutsålt Hovet. Nu är världsbandet tillbaks med ett nytt album (”Crooked Teeth” som släpps på fredag!) och med en konsert på Fryshuset i Stockholm - den 11 september! Biljetterna (liksom albumet) släpps fredag 19 maj klockan 09.00 Papa Roach har etablerat sig som trendsättare i musikvärlden. Bandet har bland annat två Grammy-nomineringar, flera världsturnéer med alla möjliga från Eminem till Marilyn Manson och de står bakom monsterhiten ”Last Resort”. På fredag släpps bandets nionde album: ”Crooked Teeth” - en skiva som lovar att gå tillbaks till bandets rötter. Första singeln från albumet, ”Help”, blev en enorm succé och landade på förstaplatsen på Billboard Mainstream Rock Songs i april. Albumet är efterlängtat och frontmannen Jacoby Shaddix håller inte tillbaks med sina texter. Det är ärligt, rått, politiskt, hårt och - Papa Roach när de är som bäst. Shaddix själv säger: “The people who have wanted to hear me rap for years are gonna love some of the viciousness on this record” Tillsammans med övriga medlemmar: Jerry Horton (gitarr), Tobin Esperance (bas) och Tony Palermo (trummor) är Papa Roach nu redo att återigen ta över världen med sin hårda musik och nya album. Shaddix sammanfattar återkomsten och nya albumet bäst: ”We are a purpose-driven band and I've got a responsibility to myself and our fans to continue to create!” “Crooked Teeth” OCH biljettsläpp på fredag. Bästa sättet att starta helgen på! Datum 11/9 – Fryshuset, Stockholm Biljetter Biljetterna släpps fredag 19 maj klockan 09.00.

STONE SOUR 29. November 2012 Ludwigsburg Arena Ludwigsburg
STONE SOUR 29. November 2012 Ludwigsburg Arena Ludwigsburg Special Guest: PAPA ROACH Mit STONE SOUR und PAPA ROACH besuchen gleich zwei Speerspitzen des US- amerikanischen Rockzirkus die deutschen Clubs, um an fünf Abenden die Wände zum Wackeln zu bringen. Beide Formationen bringen zu ihrer Tournee im November/Dezember ein neues Album mit: PAPA ROACH veröffentlichen Anfang Oktober ihr siebtes Album „The Connection“, mit dem sie ihren bislang mehr als 15 Millionen verkauften Alben viele weitere hinzu fügen werden. STONE SOUR, die Band um Slipknot-Sänger Corey Taylor, planen sogar eine Doppelveröffentlichung: der erste Teil ihres neuen Konzeptalbums „House of Gold and Bones“ ist ebenfalls für Oktober angekündigt, der zweite Teil folgt sodann im Frühjahr 2013. Zwischen dem 29. November und dem 6. Dezember stellen beide Bands diese neuen Songs im Rahmen von fünf Shows in Ludwigsburg, München, Offenbach, Berlin und Oberhausen dem deutschen Publikum vor. PAPA ROACH entstanden mitten in der aufkeimenden NuMetal-Welle Mitte der 90er-Jahre. Geschult im Crossover, bot die Band von Anfang an einen aufregenden Mix zwischen Metal, Alternative, Post Grunge, Hard Rock und toughen Raps an, der für die damalige Szene recht neu war. Nach einem Achtungserfolg ihres Debütalbums „Old Friends From Young Years“ gelang ihnen mit dem 2000 veröffentlichten, zweiten Album „Infest“ der internationale Durchbruch. Allein in den USA erhielt das Werk dreifach Platin und stieg auch in Deutschland in die Top 5 der Albumcharts. Mit den Folgewerken „Lovehatetragedy“ (2002) und „Getting Away With Murder“ (2004) manifestierten sie ihre internationalen Erfolge. Seit ihrem fünften Album „The Paramour Sessions“ von 2006 wandelte sich der Stil von Jacoby Shaddix (Gesang), Jerry Horton (Gitarre), Tobin Esperance (Bass) und Dave Bruckner (Drums): Die Raps verschwanden, der Sound tendierte stärker Richtung Alternative Rock und ließ die Metal-Elemente langsam verschwinden.

Pressemitteilung Zu Papa Roach & Hollywood Undead
Pressemitteilung zu Papa Roach & Hollywood Undead Papa Roach kündigen Europatour mit Hollywood Undead an: Am 17.03.2020 sind die beiden Bands in der Barclaycard Arena in Hamburg live zu erleben Hamburg, Oktober 2019 – Papa Roach haben zu feiern, und das tun sie im Frühjahr auf Tour in Deutschland: Ihr aktuelles Album „Who Do You Trust?“ zeigt die Kalifornier so kreativ grenzenlos wie nie, zudem wird das legendäre Debüt „Infest“ 20 Jahre alt. Im Frühjahr 2020 stehen sieben Termine auf dem Plan. Am 17.03.2020 kommt die Band in die Barclaycard Arena nach Hamburg. Mit dabei: die Rock-Rap-Metalheads Hollywood Undead. Viel hat sich getan, seit Papa Roach im Jahr 2000 mit Macht über die internationale Rockszene hereingebrochen sind: Damals schaffte die Band bereits mit dem Majorlabel- Debüt „Infest“ den platinveredelten Durchbruch, Songs wie „Last Resort“ und „Broken Home“ wurden zu Klassikern und zum Soundtrack einer Ära. Seitdem sind Papa Roach nie stilistisch stehen geblieben: Ihr aktuelles und inzwischen zehntes Werk „Who Do You Trust?“ zeigt die Gruppe um Sänger Jacoby Shaddix und Gitarrist Jerry Horton von ihrer facettenreichen Seite, ob hart rockend, unverschämt eingängig, experimentell wagemutig oder gar elektronisch. Die deutschen Fans honorierten das mit einem vierten Platz in den Charts. Für die anstehenden Konzerte verspricht der Frontmann eine gelungene Mischung aus allem: „Wir werden zu gleichen Teilen einen Blick in unsere Vergangenheit werfen, aber auch das aktuelle Material wird nicht zu kurz kommen. Zurzeit spielen wir etwa fünf oder sechs der neuen Songs live. Das sorgt für eine ziemlich abwechslungsreiche Rockshow!“ Und Papa Roach können das Feuer einer packenden Liveshow immer wieder entfachen.

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Media Contact Brandie Warr 775-589-7774 [email protected] HARD ROCK HOTEL & CASINO LAKE TAHOE ANNOUNCES THIRD ROUND OF HEADLINERS FOR AMPLIFIED SUMMER MUSIC SERIES STATELINE, NEV. – May 9, 2018 – Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe has announced a new summer music event for its Amplified Summer Music Series, presented to you by KRLT 93.9 The Lake and sponsored by Bud Lite®. On Saturday, August 11th, Hard Rock Hotel & Casino Lake Tahoe will feature Papa Roach. AMPLIFIED SUMMER MUSIC SERIES Headliner: Papa Roach With Special Guest Saturday, August 11, 2018 Over the past two decades, Papa Roach has established themselves as true trendsetters in heavy music. They’ve been nominated for two Grammys, toured the globe with everyone from Eminem to Marilyn Manson and crafted the nü metal anthem “Last Resort,” which is still in heavy rotation on rock radio 17 years after its release. The release of their recent album Crooked Teeth has continued to illustrate the various sides of Papa Roach and how they’ve managed to remain relevant while musical trends ebb and flow. “We didn't go into this album with the intention of trying to write radio singles,” Jerry Horton explains. “The collection of songs was really about bookending everything that we’ve done prior to this album and reintroducing Papa Roach to people who didn't realize the depth that we have,” says Tony Palermo. The concert series will follow previously announced acts Ice Cube, Everlast, and Beastie Boys DJ Mix Master Mike on August 4th and the Alt-Rock Reload featuring Everclear, Fuel, Marcy Playground, Local H, and Oleander on July 7th.
