Their latest album is "Ego Trip", released on their own label, New Noize Records. PAPA ROACH has amassed over 1 billion streams worldwide, with "Ego Trip" spawning four No. 1 singles and contributing to an impressive career that includes a total of 28 Top 10 hits and 14 No. 1 hits on the Rock, Alternative, and Hot AC charts.
