Recognised for singles such as The Downfall of Us All, All I Want, Miracle, If It Means A Lot To You, and many others, A Day To Remember have shared the stage with bands including Yellowcard, Falling In Reverse, New Found Glory, and Australia’s own Parkway Drive. This year, they’ve performed at festivals including Knotfest Australia, Slam Dunk Festival, Hellfest, Rock am Ring, and Vans Warped Tour.

Meanwhile, California mainstays Papa Roach have eleven albums to their name, including their most recent, Ego Trip, which dropped in 2022 via their own label, New Noize Records.

Following the release of their genre-defying 2000 single, Last Resort, from their 2000 album Infest, Papa Roach have enjoyed a momentous career that has included 26 career Top 10 hits, 12 career #1s, and an ongoing global impact.

Last in Australia in 2023 on a co-headline run with The Used, it’s never too soon for a band of their calibre to return. You can check out The Music’s photo gallery from the Sydney show here.

In 2023, Papa Roach vocalist Jacoby Shaddix joined Evanescence at Germany’s Rock am Ring festival, giving nu-metal fans the thrill of a lifetime by taking on the iconic rap verse in Bring Me To Life.

With both acts booked at the festival on the same day, it worked out perfectly to have Shaddix reprise Paul McCoy of 12 Stones’ rap verse. His performance ruled – his tone is close to McCoy’s, and the chemistry between Shaddix and Lee on that stage was evident. You can check out the footage here.
