Untitled

The Paramour Sessions is the fourth major-label album by Californian rock group Papa Roach. It was released on September 12, 2006. While pre-recording, the band rented the Paramour Mansion which the album name reflects. Like their previous effort, Getting Away with Murder, the album steers away from their previous nu metal sound.

Concept

This album has a darker tone, reflecting drug use and life's hardships, as is evident in "Forever" (You're my heroine, in this moment I'm lonely, fullfilling my darkest dreams, all these drugs, all these women, I'm never forgiven, this broken heart of mine.) and "I Devise My Own Demise", which is self explanatory. Many others reflect this real-life themes, including "Roses On My Grave" and "Time Is Running Out". "Crash" is about resorting to animal instincts and a mental crash, realizing what is happening.

Sales

The album debuted at #16 on the Billboard 200 Chart with 37,000 copies sold. Sales so far have been disappointing with just over 135,000 copies sold in America which is a far cry from the 3 million copies Infest shipped.

Miscellaneous

  • The song "To Be Loved" is the theme to WWE Monday Night RAW
  • The song "Roses On My Grave" was dedicated to the memory of Rachel Davis, who died in August of 2005 in a tragic car accident. The lyrics "the ground never seemed so far away" are taken from her MySpace page (Rachel Davis' MySpace page).
