Today, genre blending one-to-watch Jeris Johnson and renowned rock sensation Papa Roach unveil “Last Resort (Reloaded).”  Celebrating the 20th anniversary of certified triple platinum hit “Last Resort,” Jeris Johnson & Papa Roach unite to breathe new life into an iconic track, which was named the most played video on TRL in 2000.  “Last Resort (Reloaded)” boasts an infectious bounce, potent guitars, and punchy vocals in true Jeris & Jacoby fashion.  With an effortless raw, nostalgic punk-rock vibe, listeners are sure to be transported to their own personal concert.

Stream and buy HERE.

The rework arrives with a visual that reimagines the original Papa Roach music video and encapsulates the whirlwind of a mosh pit.  Out tomorrow, January 28th, Jeris and Jacoby bring their palpable energy and dynamic sonics as they prove an undeniable ability to unite a crowd, whether that’s through the collective screens of ‘quarantine’ or the hopeful imagining of the days we’ll be able to jump around in a crowd once again.  The poignant visual gives a bit of relief to those feeling overwhelmed, allowing viewers to sing at the top of their lungs and jump off the restlessness and anger they may be feeling. The lyrics tackle hard-hitting topics, as Jeris continues Jacoby’s verse from 2000 and adds his own thoughts, feelings, and struggles as he navigates life.  

Jeris Johnson has garnered a devout cult following on TikTok for his genre-transforming reworks of popular songs.  As he picked up traction on the platform following the success of “damn!,” which reached #19 on the Shazam charts and was included on Spotify’s US Viral Chart, Jeris covered Papa Roach’s “Last Resort” and caught the eyes and ears of the critically acclaimed group themselves.  Proving the power of TikTok, Jacoby and Jeris became fast friends, forging a brotherhood that sees Jacoby knighting Jeris in his quest to break into uncharted territory and create a whole new sonic wave.

“It was amazing to hear that Jeris connected with the track the same way people all over the world have. That conversation of “Last Resort” and its impact on all types of people hasn’t stopped for 20 years, and we were stoked to “Reload” it for a new generation to keep that conversation going” – Jacoby Shaddix

“”Last Resort (Reloaded)” is a song surrounded by magic. The original “Last Resort” is one of the most impactful and loved songs from an entire generation of music (and my childhood). There is an energy to that song that has just made it a living breathing art form at this point. After I remixed it and threw it up on TikTok the last thing I expected was that I’d end up in the studio with Papa Roach a couple weeks later. The reaction and reception was so overwhelming that me (a random kid on TikTok) got the attention of a legacy band and the invitation to team up and remake “Last Resort” for an entirely new generation.  I don’t give a fuck what anyone says, that’s magic.” – Jeris Johnson

PAPA ROACH have announced the upcoming release of their second collection of hit singles entitled “Greatest Hits Vol. 2 – The Better Noise Years.” The album, due out March 19, 2021, is comprised of 12 of the band’s top 10 Hits released between 2010 to 2019. The set includes 21 tracks including 3 unreleased remixes and 2 unreleased acoustic recordings recorded Live at the YouTube Studios in NYC.   The set also features a guest appearance by Danny Warsnop (vocalist of ASKING ALEXANDRIA) on the track “Broken As Me.” The original version of the song was recorded for Papa Roach’s 2015 album F.E.A.R.   The band noted, “We wanted to commemorate the last 10 years of our journey with this special collection of the music that got us here.” The collection is available for pre-order now on all streaming sites.

First single and video “The Ending (Remastered 2020)” is also released today.  The song will be featured in the motion picture ”THE RETALIATORS.”  The film is a horror thriller, and the music video includes footage from the movie. Jacoby Shaddix, Papa Roach’s lead singer, also makes his acting debut in a crucial role in the 2021 picture. “When I heard about this film last year, I spoke to the creative team and I felt I had a vehicle to see if I could expand my range as an artist.  Truly, I couldn’t have imagined how much I enjoyed this experience and can’t wait to find another film in the future,” explained Shaddix.  He appears alongside a diverse cast, which includes Michael Lombardi (FX’s Rescue Me, The Deuce), Marc Menchaca (Ozark, Black Mirror, The Sinner) and Joseph Gatt (Ray Donovan, Game of Thrones, Banshee, Dumbo) in the high-octane horror thriller.

Watch The Retaliators teaser trailer below.

Lombardi, who is also a Co-Producer on the film, says of Shaddix’s acting in the role of Quinn Brady “I wasn’t sure what to expect. I thought he might be good because he’s a great storyteller with his songs, but I was truly blown away by his performance as an actor. I found Jacoby to be incredibly focused and committed! He was never afraid to jump off that cliff. For example, he and I had a scene together where his character has to slap me, pull my hair and lick my face. Lucky for me we only needed two takes, because he 100% went for it. I had a red, smacked, wet face when the director yelled cut.  He’s a beast!”

Papa Roach has remained relevant since their debut in 2000.  Now 20 years in, the band currently has over 8 Million monthly listeners on Spotify with total streaming numbers into the billions.  Papa Roach has released 21 Top 5 singles over the course of their distinguished career – 12 of which are included in the new Greatest Hits collection from the past 10 years. “Help” the band’s 2017 release has just been certified GOLD by the RIAA, selling over 500,000 copies in the United States alone.

THE RETALIATORS is a high-octane horror-thriller, starring Michael Lombardi (FX’s Rescue Me), Marc Menchaca (Ozark, The Outsider) and Joseph Gatt (Dumbo), with special guest appearances by some of rock music’s biggest names; Tommy Lee, Five Finger Death Punch, Jacoby Shaddix (Papa Roach), The Hu, Ice Nine Kills, Escape The Fate and more. The film was written by Darren Geare and Jeff Allen Geare, and directed by Bridget Smith. It will be released in Fall 2020.

The original version of “Wolf Totem” charted at #1 on Billboard‘s Hard Rock Digital Song Sales chart back in April 2019 and is featured on THE HU’s Top Ten-charting debut album THE GEREG (Better Noise Music). This is the band’s second single to go to Active Rock Radio, after “Yuve Yuve Yu” featuring Danny Case (From Ashes To New) peaked at #4.

“I’m honored to be part of such a powerful new blend of rock n roll,” says Shaddix. “The Hu are the real deal. Don’t sleep on this.”

THE HU has been making waves across the globe with sold-out shows and festival appearances presenting their signature brand of “hunnu rock” –a one-of-a-kind mixture of Western rock music combined with traditional Mongolian instrumentation and throat-singing in their native language.

The band has achieved wide critical acclaim and appeared on many 2019 year-end best-of lists. Loudwire listed THE GEREG among its Top Albums of 2019 and Revolver Magazine listed the band’s video “Great Chinggis Khaan” among the year’s Top 10. In the UK, THE GEREG placed among Top Albums of 2019 in Classic Rock and Metal Hammer magazines.

FiveFingerDeathPunch-PapaRoach

FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH & PAPA ROACH  have launched a social media campaign allowing fans to request which cities their 2015 co-headline European tour should visit.  The bands recently ran a similar campaign for their US tour with many of the  1.5 million fans demanding that they visit  Europe.

No official announcement has been made about a European leg, but the bands are offering fans the opportunity to request shows by casting a vote for their city at http://demand.fivefingerdeathpunch.com/ and http://demand.paparoach.com/ starting today. Fans can track the progress of the conversation through an interactive heatmap on each site. Each week the top voted cities will move onto the next round until the final routing is revealed the morning of June 12th, the same day FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH perform on the main stage at Download Festival in the U.K.

With 10 #1 singles and over 25 Top 10 singles between them, millions of video streams and fans all over the globe, FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH and PAPA ROACH have been dominating the airwaves throughout their careers. The two bands – who have also been heralded by fans and press alike as being at the top of their game in the live arena – are scheduled to co-headline North America arenas this fall.

FIVE FINGER DEATH PUNCH has just finished their much-anticipated forthcoming sixth full-length studio album, Got Your Six, to be released globally on August 28, 2015. Their last UK tour in 2014 sold out well in advance, and their previous albums THE WRONG SIDE OF HEAVEN AND THE RIGHTEOUS SIDE OF HELL, VOLUME 1 and VOLUME 2 both debuted on the US Billboard album chart at No 2 within a four-month period in 2013, as well as in the Top 10 mainstream charts all around the world. Volume 1 has since gone gold in the U.S. and Canada, and between them, the two albums feature three #1 radio hit singles – “Lift Me Up” featuring Rob Halford of Judas Priest, “Battle Born” and “Wrong Side Of Heaven”, the video to which has over 26 million views to date.

Multi-platinum, Grammy and MTV award nominees PAPA ROACH’s brand of melodic hard rock has influenced many of today’s big names in the metal scene. The band released their 8th studio album F.E.A.R. earlier this year which charted at 13 in the UK charts followed by storming appearances at the Reading and Leeds festivals and a sold out headline UK tour. PAPA ROACH are set to release their second single “Gravity,” featuring In This Moment’s Maria Brink on June 1, 2015. Watch the video here:

2015 also marks the 15th Anniversary of Infest the band’s 2000 breakthrough album, which has sold over 8 million albums globally to date.

PAPA ROACH: Set To Release New Single ‘Falling Apart’; Currently On UK Headline Tour

PAPA ROACH‘s eighth album “F.E.A.R” entered the UK charts at No 13 last month, the band’s highest chart placement since 2002. Following a storming appearance at the Reading and Leeds festivals in 2014, the band kicked off their first UK headline tour for 2 years last night in Norwich.

Now they are set to release a new single ‘Falling Apart’ via Eleven Seven Records on April 27th, Radio 1’s Daniel P. Carter’s exclusive album track, which explodes into an anthemic arena-ready refrain.

Bassist Tobin Esperance says of ‘Falling Apart’, “It’s about trying to find something to hold on to that can keep you strong, propel you forward, and be that light in your life.”

Exploring new musical territory is nothing new for the Californian band (rounded out by singer Jacoby Shaddix, guitarist Jerry Horton and drummer Tony Palermo), who over the course of two decades have released an impressively diverse string of Gold, Platinum and Multi-Platinum records, starting with 2000’s Infest (featuring their breakout single ‘Last Resort’). “INFEST is straight fire one-hundred percent,” declares Jacoby Shaddix “That’s when I realized the purpose of my life playing music. Infest was the opening statement. It’s the intro of who we were to become. It was just the top of the iceberg. That record is just as brutally honest and real as anything I’ve written to this day.”

Tour dates are as follows:
March 2015
Sunday 8th Norwich, University of East Anglia SOLD OUT
Tue 10th Bristol, 02 Academy SOLD OUT
Wed 11th Southampton, Guildhall SOLD OUT
Thurs 12th London, Roundhouse SOLD OUT
Sat 14th Glasgow, Barrowland SOLD OUT
Sun 15th Manchester, Academy SOLD OUT
Tue 17th Birmingham, 02 Academy
Wed 18th Nottingham, Rock City SOLD OUT
Fri 20th Dublin, Academy SOLD OUT
Sat 21st Belfast, The Limelight SOLD OUT

The band will also be making a personal appearance at two stores:
Tue 17th Birmingham HMV 5.30 pm
Wed 18th Nottingham Blue Banana 5.30 pm
