New Album from Papa Roach Due Out 2015; Single Coming Soon

Papa Roach completed their new album, F.E.A.R. (Face Everything And Rise), which will be due out early next year.  

The record was recorded at Kevin Churko's Hideout Studio and co-written with Kevin and Kane Churko.

In the past, the Churkos have collaborated as a team when it comes to writing with their artists, but due to unusually high traffic at the studio earlier this year, Kevin and Kane co-wrote and produced the album separately - and according to the band, it came out great.

Look for the first single, "Face Everything and Rise" which was co-written by Kane Churko, to come out before the end of the year.
