I don't hate this song, and I probably like it better than almost all recent Papa Roach singles, but DAMN does Jacoby say the word 'burn' a lot in this song. It's excessive imo.

Song is mediocre. Video is stupid. These guys are too comfortable from their consistent B-level success and just resting on their laurels now. Getting Away with Murder was a good record, though...The Paramour Sessions was solid.

Really? I thought Getting Away With Murder was my most disappointing CD purchase of my lifetime. It's the only Papa Roach album I ever bought other than Infest, which doesn't wow me either though I liked it just fine in 7th grade. I probably would have liked Lovehatetragedy at the time too, but "She Loves Me Not" didn't grab my attention and "Time And Time Again" didn't garner enough airplay to sink in with me as a song I liked until much later. I bought GAWM on the strength of the title-track lead single, and ended up only liking about two other songs on the album. I hated "Scars" the moment I heard it, and when that went on to become the next single, that was a very steep turn from me liking Papa Roach to me rooting against them on the charts and changing the station when they came on the radio. And they've yet to release a single since then that has turned them back in the right direction for me.
For me, Papa Roach was two different bands divided by the "Getting Away With Murder" single. Going in chronological order, there is a profound drop-off after it.
"Last Resort" B+
"Broken Home" A-
"Between Angels And Insects" A-
"She Loves Me Not" B-
"Time And Time Again" A-
"Getting Away With Murder" A- (4 out of first 6 singles were A- with nothing lower than B-)
...then...
"Scars" D
"Take Me" B
"To Be Loved" B-
"Forever" C
"Time Is Running Out" C+
"Reckless" C
"Hollywood Whore" B
"Lifeline" C+
"I Almost Told You That I Loved You" B-
"Had Enough" C-
"Kick In The Teeth" C-
"Burn" B-
I'm sure a part of it is that my tastes changed, but not THAT much.

I can't believe you guys don't like "Time Is Running Out". That's one of my favorite P Roach songs.

I guess the "87" in your username has become like wallpaper to me. I hear ya. Some of the comments on here and how they relate to a certain time period make me feel like an old fart being 5-10 years older than most others on here. If anyone wants to figure how old I am, "Last Resort" exploded when I was in 10th grade. |

27 22 PAPA ROACH Burn 448 374 74 2.133 This just might go Top 20. Sick. I'll give a free pass to "Kick in the Teeth," but for as much as Alternative is shifting away from the aggro, radio-rock stuff, you'd think a mediocre 2nd single from a Papa Roach quasi-album wouldn't have gone beyond #35 at best, and barely charted, if at all, at the least. Then again, you also wouldn't expect a generic, aggressive Pop Evil song to chart on the Alternative format in 2011. |
