Starting out as a punk- and rap-influenced band, the northern Californian group

Papa Roach eventually grew into a straight-ahead hard rock ensemble with strong

heavy metal leanings. Consisting of Coby Dick, Jerry Horton, Dave Buckner, and

Tobin Esperance, Papa Roach formed in 1993 and began releasing EPs soon after,

including 1994's Potatoes for Christmas and 1995's Caca Bonita. By 1996, the

group had replaced original bassist Will James with Esperance and hired a new

manager; the following year, Papa Roach released their first full-length album,

Old Friends from Young Years, which became a surprise hit on local radio.



The band's regional success led to more prominent gigs, including dates with

Suicidal Tendencies, Sevendust, and Powerman 5000, and a deal with Dreamworks

Records, which released Papa Roach's second album, Infest, in early 2000. The

album went triple platinum thanks to the success of "Last Resort," an intensely

popular single that helped make Papa Roach one of the most beloved hard rock

acts of the new millenium. Two years later, frontman Coby Dick opted to go by

his given name of Jacoby Shaddix, and a new album, lovehatetragedy, was released

that June. Stylistically, the band had begun to grow beyond its rap-rock roots

and the new tracks showcased a slightly more mature, melodic, and

straightforward hard rock sound. That same summer, however, the band joined a

number of rap acts -- including Ludacris and Xzibit -- on Eminem's Anger

Management Tour.
