    Floater is one of the most underappreciated bands of all time.

      I appreciate them the most out of all the band's. I listen to their music daily. It's a major part of my existence since I was blessed with their music in 95'

    I had the unfortunate pleasure of being in bands and playing shows like battle of the bands at the starry night. So incredibly gifted and talented. I became a huge fan. I then became friends with their manager at the time. We drove to eugene and I had the opportunity to buy them dinner and hang with them before their show. And damn it if rob would not let me see the set list. What a great group of guys. I'm envious and also so grateful to enjoy their music. How the rage of the Seattle scene back then didn't sweep them up... in a way I'm also thankful that it didn't. Unbelievable amazing, fantastically talented. I really can't say enough. I've never been disappointed... except when he wouldn't let me see the set list.

    I was turned onto these guys in 2001 down in Phoenix by a guy named Josh and I’ve been hooked on Floater ever since. There’s nobody else like them and they’re not like anybody else I love that.

      I like the fact that every album is different from the next and every song is different from any other song. It is like listing to a different band and if you did not know it was the same you would think it was a different band.

  • @linwoodwebber4304

    I've loved this band since the 90s, pretty much as soon as I heard "SINK" I was hooked. A buddy had moved to Maine from Seattle, we have a local band here named Twisted Roots that he liked, he said "check these guys out" (Floater) and I was amazed that they weren't more popular, they're really a great band.

    • @aaronmayhew2.0

      Sounds like me. I heard Sink in 96 when I went to college. Peter the destroyer instantly sucked me in. The whole album is a masterpiece from start to the end. Then I heard they had another album. Boom! Favorite band for life!

    • @andrewh.8082
      @andrewh.8082 Рік тому

      To be fair, they had one song make it mainstream. From what I've been told, a big part of why they never went mainstream was their desire to keep their style of music. Going mainstream/joining a major record label would likely have taken away their creativity as they wanted it.

    Yeah I would just like to voice my frustrations with UA-cam has anyone else noticed that someone has stolen Floater's topic Page on UA-cam and it now has some guy's auto-tuned mumble rap. someone needs to contact UA-cam and let them know or Floater needs to go on UA-cam and claim it's topic account back because this guy stole it and he has turned all the comments off because I kept bad-mouthing him and telling him he needed to get his own UA-cam account
