Band Celebrates Album Release by Visiting Los Angeles Mission
Food Bank with WhyHunger
“Kick in the Teeth” Top 10 at Active Rock and Moves to #19 at Alternative
(New York, NY) – Papa Roach have released their latest album, Time For Annihilation…On the Record and On the Road (track listing below) via new label Eleven Seven Music today. The band’s album is a unique hybrid listening experience, which showcases new material produced by David Bendeth (Paramore, Breaking Benjamin, The Red Jumpsuit Apparatus) as well as live renditions of past hits.
With the release of this record, the band continue their long term commitment to WhyHunger, raising funds and awareness for the 49 million Americans and more than 1 billion people worldwide who are hungry. The band included a hidden track on the record, a first in philanthropy, to encourage fans to text to donate as they do live in concert. In addition, the band will be visiting the Los Angeles Mission food bank as volunteers to celebrate their album release and continued partnership with WhyHunger. On their upcoming tour dates, the band will be auctioning off VIP experiences with all proceeds going to WhyHunger.
Jacoby Shaddix said, “We wanted to use the press we were doing around the album to help raise awareness for the cause, we made a commitment to WhyHunger and are just as passionate about it as we are the music. We want to make sure we walk the walk and not just talk the talk, hopefully it inspires people to do the same.”
The hard-hitting Sacramento natives have again cracked the Top 10 with their new single “Kick In The Teeth”, which is currently holding down the #7 slot on the active rock chart and #19 on the alternative chart with no sign of slowing down. In a review of the single, Billboard wrote, “Kick In The Teeth” may be its (Papa Roach’s) most rousing anthem yet.” With over 8 million records sold, Papa Roach has produced multi-format hits on every album they have released over the past ten years, proving their longevity and relevance throughout. With Time for Annihilation…On The Record and On The Road, Papa Roach bring together what they do best by delivering a highly energetic entertainment package for fans old and new alike.
Papa Roach continues to fortify their reputation as one of the best live bands regardless of genre and recently electrified the 100,000 plus audience at this year’s Sonisphere festival in the UK with an explosive performance of which Metal Hammer said, “The Roach are sensational for every second they are onstage. P Roach came, saw and kicked everyone’s ass.” In addition, ESPN is using the lead track throughout the network’s programming for the entire month of August to pump up the excitement of their comprehensive sports coverage including this years summer X-Games. Continuing it’s energizing force, Papa Roach and Monster Energy have partnered in an online contest for fans to submit user-generated extreme sports clips which will be cut together as a new video for “Kick in the Teeth.”
