In your Honor

In honor of my last post I figured I'd post some ol school P-roach vids
Live performance of "Between Angels and Insects"

And "Time and Time Again"


Damn, I really loved Papa Roach. You know what Im going to listen to Roach when I get home, and I just might give they're new stuff a try too.

Whatever happened to....



...Papa Roach? I used to looooove them. When I heard their first single "Last Resort" I was all about them. Then Infest came out i copped that, it was the height of the whole rap-rock phenom which I really dug. People always put down that sect of rock and roll but being a black kid who grew up on hip-hop and grew to love rock music I liked it. Sure there were some bands that were horrible at it *cough* Crazy Town *cough* but Papa Roach did it well I believe. Jacoby Shaddix or as he went by in those days Coby Dick could really spit. My first rock show was a radio show put on by FM99 (hampton roads area) called Lunatic Luau in September of 2000 and Papa Roach was the headliner and I was just in awe of them. I saw them again in April of 2001 at the Boathouse (R.I.P.) and I actually met Coby Dick and he signed my "Raid the Nation" poster that I had for a long time but I lost it through moving so much in college, but man that was such a great night, he was such a cool dude, I mean really fuggin awesome! So the second album came out Love Hate Tragedy and they wanted to leave behind the whole rap-rock thing which was cool, you know a band has to evolve. It was a decent album you know I gave them benefit of the doubt, I was a rida. Then the third album came out Getting Away With Murder separating themselves even further from the bunch they were first gathered with. They had a pretty big hit off that album with "Scars", again a pretty solid album some good songs. But my fandom waned after that album and I have not really followed their stuff since. They sound like a sunset strip LA band. It makes me sad cause I was such a huge fan and kept an open mind and respected they're need to expand upon the music and grow as a band, but I just dont dig it anymore, but I still love Jacoby Shaddix, he's such an awesome guy, or at least he was 7 years ago, I hope he hasnt changed.
So What Happened to Papa Roach? They have a new album The Paramour Sessions, Jacoby is on a track with Motley Crue, Buckcherry, Dominican Lou, your moms and whatnot. I mean they have a lot of success and have sold a lot of albums which I am happy for cause in the words of Q-Tip music people are shhhhaaaadddddyyyy. I will forever hold in my heart the memories of early Papa Roach.

Maya Angelou: Toucan Sam, you leap on the back of the wind, load stone to assorted fruit
flavors, Phoenix of the dawns, one smile. We gave you, Toucan Sam, life. You, Toucan Sam, give us loops of fruit. Fruity loops, Fruit Loopies, swimming in the churning, frothy mother sea of milk, Kellogg's appreciates consumer comments, P. O. Box 221, Battle Creek, Michigan, a prism of fruity color, a cornocopia of over forty fruity tastes. The orange, the apple, the grape, the pomegrante, the quince, the kumkwat, the kiwi, the planitain, the guava...
