"Between Angels and Insects" is the third and final single from Papa Roach's first album, Infest (2000). The song lyrics feature numerous references to the novel Fight Club by Chuck Palahniuk.

The song continues to be a fan favourite and is often played at live events along with Last Resort, She Loves Me Not, Scars, and Broken Home.

The video features the band playing in a concrete basement/ garage. The camera does several special effects like morph from angle to angle rapidly, show the band moshing in super slow motion and even passing through the bands body, revealing their insides. Most of these effects are reminiscent of the film version of Fight Club, which employed similar effects. Insects, naturally cockroaches appear on several occasions, even coming out of lead singer, Shaddix's mouth when he screams.

The opening riff is similar to the main riff to the song "Prowler", a song by the British power metal band Iron Maiden, from their self-titled album.
