Papa Roach have released two new tracks from their upcoming album Crooked Teeth.

The follow-up to 2015’s F.E.A.R will launch on May 19 via Eleven Seven Music – with the band issuing a lyric video for Born For Greatness and an audio stream of Periscope, with the latter featuring singer, songwriter Skylar Grey. Listen to both tracks below.

Crooked Teeth was produced by Nicholas ‘RAS’ Furlong and Colin Brittain, with Jason Evigan collaborating on Born For Greatness.

Frontman Jacoby Shaddix said: “The first time we met up with RAS and Colin, they said that 2000’s Infest was on constant rotation when they were growing up and they wanted to bring back some of that fire.”

Furlong added: “The whole idea was to take the classic elements of Papa Roach that everyone loved and revamp them into a modern version of the sound through the creative process – and we ended up with a bold, courageous and more adventurous version of Papa Roach.”

The band will head out on the road from next month on a run of North American shows.

Crooked Teeth is available for pre-order.
