If you're listening to Taproot in 2024 you're probably old enough to remember when MTV played music videos 🔥
Yep MTV and VH1 and even Madonna used to be the bomb back then now everything went downhill even metal I miss the days of Nu Metal and Alternative Metal at least youtube gots my fix.
Truths
Well now I feel old shit
Am I that old wow wtf
I came here to say "Taproot 2023 anyone??" Lol
I want to thank my late wife, Megan, for introducing me to this before she departed. This and a few other songs kept me alive to finish raising our daughter. If anyone else is on the ropes and reading this, hold fast. Keep your chin up and refuse to quit. I'm proud of you for endeavoring. It gets better.
Thank you
Such lifting words! Hope You're hanging on in your life! Deepest gratitute 🍺
@@marcinzyrkowski9315 things are getting better. I'm 5 years on from her loss. I met a nice lady who lost her husband several years ago, and we're getting married at the end of the year. Things do turn around.
Keep pushing bro 💪
@@greenghost9368 never gonna stop, man.
Early 2000's Alternative rock,Nu metal,Hardrock " Era, "NEVER DIES🤟
Totally agree brother, this is a hidden gem.
That's true actually, Nu Metal is the most timeless genre in existence. It's eternally stylish and fantastic!
Alternative rock, nu metal, pop punk, post-grunge, post hardcore - late 90s and early 00s remain the best era for music ever. 🤘
Whoa, don't look now but some of you might be getting old. It's been my experience that those who don't crave novelty get stuck on their, teen/early twenties era music, being biased by association with peer consensus and fond experiences of youth. I've known some who deny that's what it is and some who lean into it, believing it inevitable for one to become a curmudgen, yet I'm probably older than you guys. Those of my generation got stuck in the eighties, which to me is clearly the worst era of the last century.
@@robertstevenson1993 wtf?
I remember being 13 and listening to this song, now I’m 32 and never thought I would find it again. Great way to come back!!!
this is what happened to me other day i was wondering if id be able to search for it with what i could remember
this is so good but you must hear “The Wave” or “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🤘
pretty sure i have heard this on XM turbo channel
Exactly me
SAME!!!
Congrats to rock fans alike here loving this masterpiece.

How'd you guess?

Cheers, if you're in your mid 30s reliving you're early 20s! You're my fucking people! 🙌🤘🍺
What up! 37 and cranked up to 11 🤘
The good ole days
Yea man the good ole days u said it dude.
does being 49 count
@@thejrm3198 sure does Bro
Awe! I remember the early 2000's and thought this kind of music would be around forever. I miss those days listening to the radio, wondering what would be the next new song I'd hear.
I was just listening to some 80s music and a commenter said the same thing. You never realize you're in the moment until it's gone
I remember those times when listening to the radio was very exciting and everything was so new. I also thought It would be that way forever
Numetal is back and very popular again in 2023-2024.
turning 50 in a couple of months and still rocking out to this song..
Just turned 50 around the time you (sfajita) posted your comment (May-June 2020) and just found this tune/group (2020/08/10). Not a bad tune at all!
The ultimate edge lord.
Don't stress I'm one too. Hahaha
Listening to this band in my early 20's, I'm 36 now
49 next month and still cranking this !
@@AmIEvil666 Same here
WHO'S STILL LISTENING IN 2020!?
Right here
Busted 🤷🏽♂️
here
Тут! :)
Still here whooo!
One of my best friends turned me onto this band. Used to play ps2 together every day. Moved far away. Never realized how special those times were.
Yeah dude... Your comment hit me in the feels.
Songs like this remind me of the end of high school and PS2 with close friends and feeling like life would never change.
this is so good but you must hear “The Wave” or “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🤘
Funny PS2 is mentioned here because I heard this song on True Crime Streets of LA on PS2
this song was ahead of its time this band is underappreciated
this band kept the 90s alternative.
I agree
this was 2002, not really ahead of its time but still unique
the genre entered its burnout phase long before this came out and 99% of nu-metal bands out there released a song like this one at least once
no not realy, by all means, it as a greta innovative song, but not ahead of its time, considering it was only the early 2000s
This was my go to song/album when I played Ocarina of Time on my N-64. I still picture Link running through the field when I hear it lol
Nice!
Such a great game.
Goldeneye 007...for the win
I feel in love with you. Good video games, good music, and beautiful. Where were you when I was younger? lol. Some dude got a lucky catch.
Hell ya
Thanks algorithm for putting this in my feed. It's not alarming that I haven't heard this in 10 years. Yet, you knew I loved it....
this is so good but you must hear “The Wave” or “Whispering Wolf” by SLT 🤘 🔥 🎧
This CD was in Layne Staley's CD player at the time of his tragic demise; And he was rehearsing privately to sing on these songs with Taproot, I only imagine how good these would be with Layne on them harmonizing the way he and Jerry did. If only he woulda stayed healthy we might had seen this come to Fruition. Stay healthy folks! thats the only way the Magic happens.
Where did you read ir hear about this!?
Where did you read or hear about this!?

The golden age for early 2000s Nu-Metal.
The ending breakdown still gives me the absolute chills.
I remember listening to this in like 2009 and being like "man, I haven't heard this song since like '03" and here I am 8 years later remembering that crazy moment like it was yesterday. time waits for no one.
David Grohl The song came out in 2002, that’s why. Lol
@@KennyDresden98 now it’s 5 years later. Time is crazy. And I was born when this shit came out 😆
Welcome back to Nostalgia-ville! ^-^
It’s 6 years later now 😂😂😂
Can we go back to the 2000s... Never realize how good times are/ something is until it's gone😢
Not possible. We have to wait for out grandchildren to like our music and make music in that style for it to be appreciated.
Can remember listening to this on my minidisc player lol
You should have been there for the 90's, I got the best of both worlds 🤘

Overbearing panic attack
Entrenching my veins
In an hour I'll be ok

Permanently someday

It helps me to live
In case of fire
Break the glass and
Move on into your own
Your own
Reoccurring drowning effect
Entrenching my brain
I hope you'll be ok someday
So I can say that you
Moved on in the right way
We've seen this and
We've breathed this and
We've lived this on our own

Is this about doing heroin?
Ty for posting the LYRICS! UA-cam's captioning sucks A** for this song especially bc of the particular accent he has when singing this song. I love it...especially for that time in my life and since that song, as well as many others were setting a stage for so many songs and bands that were so ahead of their time .
To be fair...it felt like it was the first time so many bands came out and were ahead of their time but that was just an experience of my generation (from our direct perspective)...but as I was saying, to be fair, The Hippie Movement and Generation, so to speak...had some of the most drastic and amazing evolutionary jumps from the music of the former years and the music of Jimi Hendrix, Jefferson Airplane, The Beatles, The Eagles, and so on.
Of course I'm sure if Mozart, Chopin, Bethoveen, & the others were still alive they would probably add another "fair" NOTABLE of their own! 😅
I didn’t hear a single “fuckin’” in there lol but the rest are correct for sure.
you caught that eh?....it kinda fits lol
@@jaradmcknight5031
Every TRUE FAN, for year's now knows the lyrics,
I finally found this song! Took me forever!
We're old guys now listening to old music :(
lol yup
this music is still the best there is, I'm 18 and i love this song, along with all music from the early 90's to the early 2000's
I'm 31 and I grew up with this song.
Hmm im not old im 16 and i love 90s and on rock
+The2000edgaras starting to think y2k really did happen and didn't do any thing to computers and just fucked up music for all of eternity like royally fucked
We lost Layne Staley in 02' 😓 I lost several friends and I was crushed. Hardest years of my life. I was 18-19. I remember these Great songs that helped me cope. 15 Years later. Still love it.
Still not over Layne. Never will be I guess.
Listening to it almost the end of 2022 🤘🏼🤘🏼🤘🏼
Yup.
Alice in chains frontman co-signed these guys haha, I loved this song when I was 12 but this isn't on par with Alice in Chains, right?
Bruh I saw them live with Deftones and Linkin Park when White Pony had just released and Linkin Park only had one single on the radio. Deftones' equipment trailer got stuck in a snowstorm in Colorado or something and they had to rent instruments from a local music shop down the street from the venue. They pretty much said fk it, played some of the fan favorites and just played covers and jammed the rest of the night. It was really informal and casual, and it made for a really unforgettable show. Taproot had tons of energy and Linkin Park had a meet and greet with fans until Deftones started. Everyone who wanted to meet them got a handshake. It was an awesome show.
Me too
Hell yes... still will kick ass in 2023 🤟🔥🎵🤟🔥
Top 10 nu-metal songs of all-time? This one is definitely on that list.
Good ol early 2000s, I remember watching this on MTV when I was 9-10 and immediately fell in love with Taproot.
E: Stephen Richards was my man-crush back then, he still is a handsome man. I wish I could have seen them in concert.
this is so good but you must hear “Whispering Wolf” or “The Wave” by SLT 🐺
Not too late; they still tour!
I don't know how this genre died out. But its always been lit. And I'm black saying this lmao
Man, loved these guys growing up and followed their career from the start to the end and was even fortunate enough to get to meet them. They were all super awesome guys. Can say this was one occasion where the old saying, "You shouldn't meet your idols" was not true.
I was a SSgt in the Marine Corps when this tracks was released. I had a personal low point in Metal. This tracks was one of many that filled the void until I found other Metal bands. Great track.
This was on MVP Baseball's 2003 soundtrack and finally found it! What a banger!
I'm 35. Recently diagnosed as manic/bipolar. I remember hearing this for the 1st time as a teenager. Never thought I'd be back here completely understanding these words. Life is hope.
10 years later and this song still kicks ass. 😎😎
m3xicanvoodoo isnt this song older?
i think its 10 years lol i was still a wee lad when it first came out
ahh so i was 7
m3xicanvoodoo Definitely 10 years old. Says it right there in the Details.
+m3xicanvoodoo its older. 13 to be correct.. I remember listening to this on the radio in 02 when I use to live in miami.. yes I'm old
I still break this glass in case and thank God it still works. People love, trust, and believe in you. Please help them by believing in yourself. if you don't have people please call a helpline. life can get better, it may take alot of work but don't give up.
Man the lyric in this song when he sings " In case of fire.. BREAK !! the glass"
Hits SOOO HARD!! love the way he screams "BREAK"
Amazing this video only has 1mil views and this guy never broke out as a star. Just shows you how much talent there is out there that hasn't been recognized.
Was thinking the same thing when I noticed the video only had 1.4million views O.O
They had their fame in the early 2000s when nu-metal was at it's peak. This song was huge in 2002. I can remember alternative metal/nu-metal being at it's all time peak in late 2002 early 2003.
Aside from the rest of the album being weak compared to this, they did themselves a major disservice by fighting the internet. Nu metal never made it mainstream so the bands that did get huge did it online and underground. These guys, I believe, had some corporate backers who fought their underground/online exposure. There were a few years full of bands that got stuck by the ""Be heard" or "be paid"" dilemma. Unless you're a top act, it's a new luxury to be able to do both.
Damn good song!
FightStarMMA You have to vaguely think about the meaning. Turns people off. Loved this song.
20 year old me coming back in a 35 year old body.

I'm not into heavy metal but this song goes hard... Thank you MVP baseball 2003 for introducing me to this song.. still like to listen to this song every now and then brings back memories.
Just turned 43 been listening to taproot since 2005 love these guys!!!
This song has a...STICKY CHORUS...It helps me to live
Back when I used to burn CD’s in the early 2000’s, this song was always on one of them. Class of 03 !

Same! 38 wishing I was 20 again.
55 and still listening to 90’s rock and still a lot Dead Kennedy’s and other punk
just turned 39 still here.

This band should have been way bigger than what they were.
Unfortunately, all their other songs aren't nearly as good. Check it out. I did.
This band helped me thru some crappy times. I've only seen them once, with Deftones, and Incubus. I remember leaving all my feelings in that mosh pit.
I would love to see that lineup on a show
Alright it’s official I need to go be a part of a mosh pit

Man, I love nü metal.
I started with 80s thrash and 70s heavy metal, then got into new bands (2010s-2020s). I liked few early 90s bands like Primus or Infectious Grooves, for some reason I’ve always skipped the late 90s/early 2000s.
Then I heard Korn and everything changed.

Still kinda here in Bangor Maine
Those of us old enough to remember the 90’s through Y2K had the best and the most original music. Aside from 69’ Woodstock of course
Cheers to the mothers.. & fathers, and those of us who are music lovers. XP

This was one of the bands that ferried me from Alternative to heavy metal.. eternal repsect
One of the very few great bands of the nu-metal era
Why can’t vocals sound so angel like this. I’m 18 and all I see today in music is the same script, I hate that. I love this song and it’s honestly inspirational with the heaviness and the vocal mixing.
Right. I’m 18 too and music is crap right now. I can’t even listen to the radio unless it plays music before my time or when I was in single digits. Also, WHAT THE HELL HAPPENED TO ROCK?!
If you enjoy this, try Chevelle or 10 Years.
Dude, MAKE music like this. Your generation and kids like you are the only hope to continue good music. Good to see someone your age in here and actually liking it.
Hell yes...cold...union underground...taproot...spineshank...static x.....🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟🤟
These guys and Story Of The Year were criminally underrated back in the day

Taproot, will always be MY go to numetal band when I want that real nostalgia
This is the first time I've heard this song in over a decade, and I can still sing along word for word.
I remember seeing Taproot play at Ozzfest 2001. I also had the pleasure of meeting them and getting their autographs. Very down to Earth.

One of the best late 90's early 2000's bands ever!
This band was so awesome and I think a little ahead of their time. Never got the recognition they deserve.
This song is a poem to myself - 35 today and this one will never get old!
This song is still incredible all these years later. 🖤🤘
In 2002 I got to hang out with them on their bus after seeing them play in my hometown. They showed me and my girlfriend at the time this video before it was even on MTV. Really down to earth guys and their drummer played drums on Celldweller's debut album.
I just heard this song on SiriusXM's Turbo station.
"Poem" is a forgotten early 2000's classic!
Mike, Steve, Phil, Jarrod...We owe You this...We owe you your great musics💙🤘We owe you "Taproot"🤘🤘💙🔥🔥
This song came out while I was still actively in mourning and suicidal depression after the death of my daughter.
I think that younger me would be happy to know I broke the glass everytime I needed to and am finally able to move on and enjoy the time I have with her siblings who are still with me.

Brings back the old days in Huntington Beach
Ooft, that breakdown is nasty.
It really is. Some people write nu-metal off because a lot of it tends to be simple. 7 strings, 4 chords, and a groove. But there was some real instrumental talent in that style if people actually cared to look.
Love your profile picture.
Fuckin right it is. He let's u know when it is about to happen too....Break,
very underrated band. damn they dont make music like this anymore.. that's what cuts deep about listening to these gems.. :(
Always liked this band. This still holds up here in 2020.
Still one of the best concerts I've seen in after 14 years!

I have been a taproot girl since I was a teen. Songs are a poems to myself. I moved on in the right way ❤. You can too
THE one-hit-wonder of all one-hit-wonders
How stupid we were for wanting to grow up in a hurry, 90's was the last great decade but it bled into the early 2000's as well. Remember the good times because I have a feeling we still have a lot of bad in front of us....rock on 🤘
