Papa Roach Vinyl Records
Starting out as a hardcore punk- and rap-influenced outfit, Papa Roach eventually grew into a straight-ahead hard rock ensemble with strong metal leanings and a knack for pairing uncompromising power with pop acumen. Emerging in the mid-'90s, the group broke big in 2001 with the release of their sophomore effort and major-label debut, Infest, which went triple platinum on the strength of "Last Resort," a single inspired by nu-metal and hip-hop. A move toward a rock-forward style on lovehatetragedy (2002) and Getting Away with Murder (2004) did little to hurt them commercially (the former went gold and the latter went platinum), and by the time of the release of their ninth and tenth albums, 2017's industrial metal-tinged Crooked Teeth and 2019's Who Do You Trust?, the Grammy-nominated group had sold over 20 million albums and outlived virtually all of their alt-metal contemporaries.
