Papa Roach frontman Jacoby Shaddix called in ahead of their Auckland show at Spark Arena for a conversation that went well beyond the usual tour chat. From early internet days and the reality of doom scrolling to the importance of staying connected in the real world, Jacoby reflected on how music still cuts through in a noisy, digital age. He opened up about the true story behind Last Resort, and shared the deeply personal journey behind Scars, touching on sobriety, guilt and confronting the person he used to be. It’s an honest, grounded conversation about using music to process life, grow, and connect with others in a meaningful way as you approach your 50th birthday.

The Mint Chicks’ landmark album, Crazy? Yes! Dumb? No! is being honoured at this year's Taite Music awards with the Independent Music NZ Classic Record. Now 20 years old, the album was made by brothers Kody and Ruban Nielson, with drummer Paul Roper and bassist Michael Logie, who became renowned for their punk‑infused, unpredictable sound and fearless DIY ethos. Ruban called up from the states for a chat about the album's affect on him and what it means to get this award.
