In a newly posted video below, the band\u2019s members individually reveal their personal choices for the best n\u00fc-metal song of all time.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Papa Roach<\/strong> themselves of course penned a n\u00fc-metal staple in the 6x platinum \u201c<strong>Last Resort<\/strong>\u201c. That 2001 single went on to catapult the Californian group to prominence and continues to connect with audiences, having entered <strong>Spotify<\/strong>\u2018s 1 billion streams club in October of 2023.<\/p>\n<p>The band\u2019s frontman <strong>Jacoby Shaddix<\/strong> for his part offered, \u201cI\u2019d be biased and say \u201c<strong>Last Resort<\/strong>\u201d by <strong>Papa Roach<\/strong>, but I\u2019ll give it to <strong>Limp Bizkit<\/strong> \u201c<strong>Break Stuff<\/strong>\u201c\u2018.
