In a recent interview, vocalist Jacoby Shaddix Papa Roach 's new album and once again expressed great enthusiasm for the band's work.
According to Shaddix, the work involved in the album was quite intense and "broke down several emotional barriers," but the result was worth it.
“We’re always trying to outdo ourselves and bring rock into the future,” said Shaddix. “We’re always trying to be one step ahead and bring something original. Sometimes we succeed and sometimes we don’t. But, I’ll tell you, this time we nailed it, man. I’m very happy. If we ever made a Grammy- , it was this one.”
According to Shaddix, the band got together in a house in Temecula for a month and immersed themselves in a daily rhythm of composing, recording, and editing music. “Many emotional barriers fell between us, and that resulted in great songs,” he says. “We shared some grief during the process and went through some things together, and in the end we thought, ‘Man, we went through heaven and hell making this record. We have something special.’”
According to bassist Tobin Esperance , the new Papa Roach album has 14 tracks and only "two or three" songs were left out.
