About 2000
In 2000, KROQ’s playlist was a battleground of nu-metal and pop-punk, with Papa Roach and Incubus leading the charge alongside Limp Bizkit’s raw energy. The year also embraced diverse sounds, from Coldplay’s introspective rock to Moby’s electronic textures, cementing KROQ’s role as a tastemaker for the new millennium.
