PAPA ROACH launched “Braindead”

Rock powerhouse Papa Roach are back in full force, announcing the release of their new single “Braindead” featuring Toby Morse, frontman of H2O.

“Braindead” is a ferocious, powerful anthem without compromise, combining Papa Roach’s trademark intensity with Morse’s raw punk energy. The result is a rebellious explosion of sound that proclaims: “You’ve got one life, one chance, one shot, I don’t wanna waste it like I’m feeling Braindead”.

“We wanted to create something that felt urgent, honest, and in-your-face-and bringing Toby in took it to the next level,” says Papa Roach singer Jacoby Shaddix. “This song is a call to wake up before it’s too late.”

“I’ve known Jacoby for over 20 years. Very proud of him with his sobriety. Their passion & hard work is why they are still here and relevant today.” adds Toby Morse. “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!!!”
