Nu-metal luminaries Papa Roach have never shied away from brute lyrical honesty, even if it exposes deep personal vulnerability. Vocalist Jacoby Shaddix wrote 2000โs โBroken Homeโ in response to his parentsโ divorce, while that same yearโs rap-rock touchstone โLast Resortโ captures the desperation of a friend who was on the brink of suicide. This willingness to engage with emotional turbulence goes a long way toward explaining Papa Roachโs longevity. Shaddix and several high school friends started playing together in 1993, naming their band after a nickname for Shaddixโs step-grandfather. The Vacaville, CA, group weathered several lineup changes on the way to self-releasing an album and several EPs before landing on DreamWorks for their 2000 major-label debut, Infest. Besides featuring hits such as โLast Resort,โ Infest boasted strident punk energy and streamlined arrangements that amplified the power of Papa Roachโs angst. The band built on their success by evolving their sound; subsequent albums contained plaintive ballads (โScarsโ), jagged hard-rock attacks (โCrooked Teethโ), and ominous pop with chilly electronic production (the hip-hop-influenced โTop of the Worldโ). The one constant through line is lyrics that confront tough, relatable topicsโas on the title track of 2019โs Who Do You Trust?, a song expressing paranoia and skepticism when dealing with the rich and powerful.
