PAPA ROACH: Pro-Shot Performance Footage Of New Song Available

January 24, 2009

Professionally filmed video footage of PAPA ROACH's performance of a new song, "Lifeline", on August 28, 2008 at Toronto, Ontario, Canada's Molson Amphitheatre can be viewed below. The clip was shot during last summer's Crüe Fest 2008 tour which was headlined by MÖTLEY CRÜE and also featured BUCKCHERRY, TRAPT and SIXX: A.M. No alcohol was being sold at the show after the Alcohol and Gaming Commission of Ontario suspended the liquor license of the Molson Amphitheatre during the concert.

Although no detailed information was given, the liquor license suspension came from various infractions which took place during the 2007 concert season at the venue which holds roughly 15,000.

According to The Pulse of Radio, PAPA ROACH has set March 24 as the release date for the band's fifth major label album, "Metamorphosis". The disc was originally scheduled to come out last fall but got pushed back to the spring. The Pulse of Radio hears that this is the strongest PAPA ROACH outing yet, and singer Jacoby Shaddix explained why he thinks the group kicked themselves up another notch. "I think for us it's like we're treading on some new territory, and the confidence in our playing and the conviction in our playing and just the overall passion towards what we do is what makes that come across," he said. "Right now we're firing on all cylinders, I mean everybody in the band is really excited about what's going on."

"Metamorphosis" will follow up 2006's "The Paramour Sessions".
PAPA ROACH will join AVENGED SEVENFOLD and BUCKCHERRY on the road beginning January 28 in West Valley City, Utah.

Former PAPA ROACH drummer Dave Buckner filed a lawsuit against the band last month, claiming that he has not been receiving his fair share of the group's earnings. PAPA ROACH permanently split with Buckner at the beginning of 2008, following a year-long period in which he went to rehab twice. He was replaced by ex-UNWRITTEN LAW drummer Tony Palermo.
