"Between Angels and Insects" was the third single from Infest, the second album by Papa Roach, and it plays like a manifesto shouted through a bullhorn: clipped, bouncing verses, a chorus that detonates, every line barked out like it offended somebody. Jacoby Shaddix, Jerry Horton, Tobin Esperance and David Buckner share the writing credit, and Jay Baumgardner produced and mixed it with a hard, compressed punch that let the riffs hit like a slammed door.
It traveled, too, pushing into the top 20 of the UK's all-format chart.
