Lyrically the new song offering, touches on the personal, yet relatable, theme that surrounds the universal struggle of surviving mental health issues. Help, was produced by Nicholas “Ras” Furlong and Colin Brittian, who grew up listening to Papa Roach and inspired the band to revisit some of their early influences.

We really followed our instincts and tried something unproven. We ended up morphing the band’s best ‘old school’ traits into a courageous and more adventurous version of Papa Roach in the 21st Century,” explains Furlong.

Papa Roach also teased fans late last year with the viral release of Crooked Teeth, which is nearing 2M streams on Spotify. Featuring one of the album’s more unorthodox moments – the 808 bass drop into a metal breakdown, Crooked Teeth hit the online community, exciting fans all over the world who are expecting an album as dynamic as their classics Infest and Getting Away with Murder.
