what's it?.......2007-03-03

the cd is ok but it's not the same as the one pictured on the seller's pic! and on the back there was a sticker that says: 'promo only-not for sale'...what does it mean?? i've bought that..

All you narrow minded musical elitists just shut up already!.......2007-02-18

I am sick and tired of all this bashing of Nu-Metal! What is so bad about it? And who are you to say that its dead? I listened to this band since I was 12 years old (I am 19 now) and I never got sick of it (this alblum anyways that new stuff is junk)! If you were assumeing I am some teenager who doesnt know real music you are wrong! I like all kinds of metal! If you are going to call me a poser metal head you are wrong! I have respefct for all kinds of metal! I like stuff like Soilwork, Trivium, Dio, Nevermore, Dragonforce, and etc. etc. I like everything from classic metal, power, death, black, nu metal and beyond!

I am just sick of all this bashing of nu-metal. You have no right to judge all nu-metal fans as idiot narrow-minded teenagers! Seriously Its just like me judgeing all you narrow minded classic rockers as 35 year losers who live in their mother's basement! Because that is probably what most of you are! If you were a "true metalhead" as you call yourself surely you would have respect for all kinds of metal! If you are saying nu-metal is talentless you must be a retard! Every genre of music is talented in its own right (except for teen pop and rap.)

Seriously why bash papa roach if the Backstreet Boys just came out with a new CD? I am sure even you would rather listen to Papa Roach than listen to them. I know I would. Like I said I am tired of hearing "Nu-Metal is dead!" So Hair Metal or Glam Metal is not dead? Yeah right!. You are saying nu-metal is dead but I dont reckon the genres I just listed stayed for long now did they? Dont get me wrong I like that kind of stuff too.

As time goes by things change! Get used to it! People who were raised around different things like different stuff! I was raised around nu-metal so what do you expect? Although I do like everything else. Seriously I hear alot of people saying extremely cruel and uncalled for things about nu-metal fans and saying things like "I hope all you nu-metal fans get AIDS" or "I wont 2 kill mislef wen I heer dis!!" I think it is wrong to hate people just because they like a different genre of music than you do! So wish such a terrible thing just because I like a different kind of music than you do? You are sick! And if you are going to kill yourself just over music then you must be a retard.

So what if Papa Roach sound like every other rap metal band. Hey most hair metal bands sound exactly the same as eachother so there. Sorry about my rambleing. Now about Papa Roach. Yeah I know they sound like every other nu-metal band but hey who cares! I dont even know what I just said...

It's too bad the world is based on greed.......2006-08-02

When Infest first came out, and even up to about 2 months ago, I held this CD in high regards. I thought Coby's voice was really good and I thought the band could definitely hold their own. However, around 2 months ago I had an itch to go back and listen to Infest again, and, needless to say, I was less than flattered. Either just the recording hasn't aged well, or my once young mind has grown up and out of the whole 'nu metal' genre. Whatever the case, Infest is nothing more than a few good songs now.

If you're in a hurry, you could get away with listening to the first five songs and end up hearing the best this CD has to offer. Infest is an energetic opener with a great chorus and pounding riffs. The downfall comes in the lame rapping though. Last Resort, well, I need not cover that because anyone who didn't live under a rock in 2000 surely knows that song. Broken Home is a halfway decent song, but in no way is anything about it remarkable. Dead Cell, next to Between Angels And Insects is probably the best song featured. While on the topic, Between Angels And Insects still ranks among my favorite of Papa Roach's material. The anger and passion is just up front unlike the other songs included. Aside from the first five tracks, the only other mentionable track is Thrown Away, which is probably the best way to close out this CD, complete with great yelling and driving riffs.

Basically the thing that bothers me about Infest is the overdone rapping. Coby has a nice singing/yelling voice, not a good rapping voice. Not to mention the horrendous lyrics. Probably 9 of the 11 tracks featured have completely forgetable lyrics, which is inexcusable. I've come to the conclusion that Papa Roach is one of the few bands that grows better with each new release. If you are a Papa Roach fan and already like this CD, then I'm not trying to sway your opinion, just in my experience, this CD wasn't what I remembered it being.

My favorite songs are Infest, Dead Cell, Between Angels And Insects, and Thrown Away. For when Infest came out, yes, it was a great CD. However, nowadays, with Papa Roach coming off the incredibly popular Getting Away With Murder, and my personal favorite release, lovehatetragedy, Infest is easily forgotten. That's not to say it doesn't have it's moments, they're just few and far between.

Best of Papa Roach.......2006-07-31

When i just listened to this album again just a while ago it brought back old memories of what papa roach was like back in 2000. This is an album that is almost perfect. This is also the best of all the Papa Roach albums. They have a unique sound that was lost in their newer album "getting away with murder". After the failure of "love hate tragedy" (which by the way was a GREAT album), papa roach conformed to the sounds of the modern rock bands, so if you want to hear papa roach at their very best, buy this. This still remains one of my favorite albums of all time. It's like one of those albums where if you try to name the best song you keep changing your mind because every song is great.

Sleeper!.......2006-07-08

This is what best desrcibes this album. I wouldn't recommend you buy any of their others, but now that no one remembers they were on the TONY HAWK PRO SKATER game, it is safe to purchase and enjoy... Best song... "Between angels and insects"
