Last month, PAPA ROACH played a special run of five shows in its home state of California to celebrate the release of the band’s 10th studio album, “Who Do You Trust?” The group closed out the run with three very special shows at the landmark West Hollywood venue The Roxy, presented by SiriusXM.

Professionally filmed video footage of PAPA ROACH performing the song “Elevate” at The Roxy can be seen below.

“Who Do You Trust?” was released on January 18 through Eleven Seven Music. The 12-song disc features the band’s signature heavy rhythmic guitars and catchy hooks on “Who Do You Trust” and “Renegade Music”, with “Not The Only One” supplying melody and emotionally charged lyrics. The album is produced by Nick “RAS” Furlong and Colin Cunningham except for “Top Of The World”, which is produced by Jason Evigan.

Asked why PAPA ROACH decided to work on new music so soon after the release of 2017’s “Crooked Teeth”, guitarist Jerry Horton told the Milwaukee radio station 102.9 The Hog: “Normally, we give it a couple of years to two and a half years, just because the touring cycles usually take a pretty long time. And then six months we’ll do [in the studio] for the record. This time it was, like, a year on tour and maybe three months [in the studio]. We got in with the same guys [producers Nicholas ‘RAS’ Furlong and Colin Brittain] that we did ‘Crooked Teeth’ with, and we have this flow together, and it just went really quick.”

He continued: “We’ve been doing this for so long that we kind of know if we get to a certain point with a song that it’s not happening naturally, then we just kind of set it aside and move on to something else and then maybe come back to it later. But we don’t try and sit there and force it for days on end like we used to.”

Horton previously told Morgan Richards Interviews that PAPA ROACH‘s new material would see him and his bandmates “really trying to explore more dynamics and not just be a wall of guitars all the time.”

Frontman Jacoby Shaddix described the musical direction of the new PAPA ROACH songs to the Lazer 103.3 radio station as “a pretty bold evolution,” saying that the tracks on “Who Do You Trust?” are “so inspiring and just unique and different and rocking and anthemic and passionate.”

PAPA ROACH will join SHINEDOWN and ASKING ALEXANDRIA on the 2019 North American leg of the “Attention! Attention!” world tour.
