Taproot was great back in the day. First time I've heard of them was their song 'Poem', but this was from the Dracula 2000 soundtrack. I NEED to get the soundtrack again (If I can find it...).
@rot105and You should listen to Plead The Fifth (their most recent album). It sounds very similar to this. Obviously not as good as Gift, but it's worth listening to. Check out their song called "Game Over".
When I first heard this back in high school, I think it was the Dracula 2000 soundtrack, it gave me goosebumps.... it still does. Absolutely amazing song
I remember 2000. It was quite a good year. Taproot, Linkin Park, and Disturbed all released their debut albums...10 years later all 3 bands have issued at least 5 albums each. Insane. lol.
@BlackberryMint Right on. I downloaded 'Upon Us' and '...Something Better than Nothing' and it made me miss em like that so much! Richards singing in those albums is insane.
Luv these guys. (some awsome BUCKETHEAD songs off his 40+ albums) Final wars- the way to heaven- soothsayer- sail on soothsayer- lurker at the threshold- witches on the heath- angel monster- nottingham lace- too many humans- mrs beasley- seige engine- brewer in the air- botnus- inferno- spell of the gypsies- aunt suzie- all in the waiting- siphoning equence- for mom- peppers ghost- king james- the treeman- spokes on the wheel of torment- baptism of solitude- padamasana- sea of expanding shapes.
i fully agree with blackberrymint, along with old staind, and deftones and many other bands, korn too, korn big time ughh, remember the life is peachy days?? or better yet the self titled album and dysfunction, omg, those were the days
I have the ep from this album, man i couldn't wait for the whole thing to come out. This is an album that can define a person. I was lucky enough to see them at the TROC IN PHILLLY 3 times. What a show. Wish they would come back and play the old.
I remember when Gift came out on my birthday (June 27th 2001) and it will be forever remembered. Why'd they have to stray to far from their awesomeness? I can't even listen to their new shit. Albums 1-3 are the only good ones.
man this brings me back to highschool... i was the only black female metalhead at my school..i use to wear my taproot hoodie with the baggy camos and addidas..those were the days! lol
@blkmtlqn Props to you for sure! A Taproot hoody actually brought my best friend and his wife together in high school way back when. LoL! thats the sheeyit!
@blkmtlqn777 yup. the rhythm guitarist in my band is head of house for taproot. he runs sound at all of their live shows and tours with them. he is also head of house for In This Moment and Cold as well.. pretty cool to know theyre out on the road listening to my band frequently.
HA! I love late bloomers.. Taproot was the shit back in 2000. But its not on that albumn. ITs on a soundtrack. Nevertheless... Gift ablumn still rocks out til this day!
@B8dHabit hmm do you know where i can get this album its nu metal which i love and i love all nu metal bands just got into this band cant seem to find the ablum?
The song Day by Day is on a soundtrack and is not available on the ablumn listed. I believe its on the Straight Up ablumn a tribute to Lynn from Snot. Gift is an awsome ablumn either way. Its still available on yahoo and Itunes.
Is this rap metal? I must be in heaven.... holy shit.... this is great shit right here! There new music is so horrible compared to this.... its amazing....
lol... I know right.. Altho Gift is awsome, its not on that albumn. And correct me if Im wrong.. But Its on the Straight UP ablumn (Tribrute to Snot)?? Or am I just confusing the two.
Taproot is a badass fucking bad, Stephen can sing his balls off mofo's. Who ever doesn't like taproot can eat my shit. Go fuck yourselfs, Taproot is awsome.
i m not yet familiar with taproot.. but so far I like this song and the song called -i hate myself- Dont like the softer songs... could you please recommend an album.. Again i prefer the songs with a heavier feel to it.. Im sure u know what i mean.. thx
That's probably it. I forgot about that - I bought mines over in Germany many moons ago. A lot of my CD"s are like that. Have a few Deftones CD's like that, as well as Slipknots first CD. Wonder why Europe got the goodies and the states got gimped?

This wasn't on Gift, but.... it was a B-side.... not only was it on Dracula 2000, but it was included on the CD single for "Again and again"...
That may be why there is confusion.

Taproot started to get radio friendly after a while.
I saw them in concert back in like, 2001.... with Static X, The Deadlights, and Slaves on Dope...
At The Crowbar in State College, PA... one of the loudest shows I've ever been to...Taproot was awesome that night.
