Multi-platinum nü-metal/alternative rock mainstays Papa Roach have just dropped their explosive new single “Braindead”, featuring none other than Toby Morse of H2O. While a full music video is due in July, the band have premiered an official lyric video that showcases the track’s raw urgency and unfiltered energy.
Frontman Jacob Shaddix offered:
“We wanted to create something that felt urgent, honest, and in your face — and bringing Toby in took it to the next level. This song is a call to wake up before it’s too late.”
Morse said:
“I’ve known Jacoby for over 20 years. Very proud of him with his sobriety. Their passion and hard work is why they are still here and relevant today. They also live by the ‘one life, one chance’ motto. So it’s a true honor to be on ‘Braindead’ sharing these words that we all live by.”
The track marks a fierce preview of what’s to come from Papa Roach’s upcoming twelfth studio album, which is currently in the works. In the meantime, the band will be staying busy with festival appearances and the massive 25th anniversary tour for Infest.
