Papa Roach drops new song 'Even If It Kills Me' amid tour launch

Papa Roach kicked off their Rise of the Roach tour Tuesday in Berlin, Germany, and debuted a brand-new song for the occasion.

The song, which has officially been released, is called "Even If It Kills Me" and comes with a lyric video. As the band notes on Instagram, it's their first new song in three years. According to setlist.fm, they opened the show with the new track.

The set list also included shortened covers of Limp Bizkit, Deftones, Korn and System of a Down songs, as well as classic tracks like "Between Angels and Insects," "Scars," "Forever," "Born for Greatness" and, of course, "Last Resort."

The Rise of the Roach tour marks the 25th anniversary of Papa Roach's album Infest; the North American leg starts March 20 in Houston.

Meanwhile, the band's charity collaboration with Carrie Underwood, "Leave A Light On (Talk Away The Dark)," has become a hit on pop radio. The track, which was released in collaboration with the American Foundation for Suicide Prevention, was recently recognized at the 2025 Clio Music Awards, where it received a Bronze award in the category of social good.
