Papa Roach’s last visit to the UK saw them celebrate the 15th anniversary of their generation defining album ‘Infest’ by playing it in full to a crammed London’s Roundhouse. Kerrang were impressed with “the ecstatic crowd reaction” in their 5K review whilst Metal Hammer thought they were ‘the most consistently relevant and on-point survivors of the nu-metal era” in their 9/10 review. Papa Roach have also just released an official video for ‘Periscope’, the moody ballad featuring singer/songwriter Skylar Grey. The video was directed by award-winning firm The Uprising Creative (Rihanna, Justin Timberlake, Big Sean, Lil Jon) who cited the inspiration for the video was “to create a moody, different look for the band using a stylistic light exploration“. “Periscope” is inspired by the realization that sometimes within a relationship you might not be worth being loved or that the other person may not be worth your love, and the struggle within that— how much effort it takes to make things work,” says Papa Roach lead vocalist Jacoby Shaddix. “One part that I think is really meaningful in the video is when Skylar and I are in the shot at the same time, yet we’re not engaging with each other. It represents the ‘disconnection’ with two people, which is very much what the lyrics describe.” Grey adds, “You are loving someone from a distance, not able to reach them.” The band has already released the songs “Crooked Teeth” and “Help” (which featured as Radio 1’s ‘Rockest Record’) both of which struck a chord with critics and fans alike. “Custom built for the biggest arenas” Kerrang “Bursting with colossal hooks, and razorsharp riffs” Metal Hammer “One of the most consistent bands rock has to offer” Rock Sound The full European tour dates are: September 11th Klubben Stockholm, Sweden 12th Rockefeller Oslo, Norway 13th Amager Bio Copenhagen, Denmark 15th Sporthalle Hamburg, Germany 16th Velodrom Berlin, Germany 17th Mala Sportovni Hala Prague, Czech Republic 19th Progresja Warsaw, Poland 20th Gasometer Vienna, Austria 21st Zenith Munich, Germany 23rd Eulachhalle Winterthur, Switzerland 24th Alcatraz Milan, Italy 25th Arena Ludwigsburg, Germany 27th Stadthalle F Offenbach, Germany 29th O13 Tilburg, Netherlands October 1st Trix Antwerp, Belgium 2nd Rockhal Luxembourg, Luxembourg 3nd Turbinenhalle Oberhausen, Germany 5th Academy Birmingham UK 6th Rock City Nottingham UK 7th O2 Academy Glasgow UK 10th Brixton O2 Academy London UK 11th Apollo Manchester UK 13th Olympia Paris, France 14th Sala Apolo Barcelona, Spain 15th Riviera Madrid, Spain Papa Roach are: Singer: Jacoby Shaddix Guitarist: Jerry Horton Bassist: Tobin Esperance Drummer: Tony Palermo ]]>
