The Rise, Fall & Return of TAPROOT
Вставка
- Опубліковано 29 тра 2024
- Today we're looking back at one of the more underappreciated bands from the nu-metal scene: Taproot.
As of 2024, these Michigan rockers have seven studio albums to their name and have been around since the 90's, facing many ups and downs along the way.
I put a lot of effort into this one, so I hope I was able to do their story justice 🖤

None of the music, music videos and concert footage is owned by me. This video was solely made for entertainment purposes and no money is made from it. - Розваги
Thanks for making the video! Well-done! - Jarrod Montague
Omg! Thank you so much! :D
That means a lot!!! 🤘🏻
Taproot was one of my favorite bands back in the day. They were one of my first concerts and the singer was super cool and signed my shirt.
That's awesome! Especially if you still got the shirt :)
Me too.

Good video, thanks for all the history! Taproot was the first band I ever saw, I was probably 14-15. They opened for Linkin Park at the Showbox in Seattle. I had no idea that night was going to change the course of my life and I would be a total show junkie from that point on. It was a great time! January 26th, 2001!
We all remember our first! ;)
Plus that sounds like a really great lineup and memory! 🤘🏻
Thanks for watching :)
🤘🤘
blue is my fav cd from taproot
GREAT video about a band I love! Thanks so much. Let's Go Taproot! And Let's Go Hawks!! Love you guys
Thank you so much for watching! Glad to hear you enjoyed 🤘🏻 :))
Great Video, never new the story behind Taproot. Cold is an underrated band. No one on UA-cam has made a videos
about
Cold
I would definitely like to make a video on them eventually :)
13 ways is a timeless masterpiece. It still sounds unique to this day.
And the last track is simply one of the best closing tracks of all time.
Great video. Taproot is one of my favorite groups and this video taught me many things I didn't know about them. Well done!
Thank you so much! Glad I could add anything of value :)
I never thought I'd hear of anything Taproot again, hopefully they make a comeback
Well, they just released a new album 6 months ago! So they're back their thing 🤘🏻
I’ve been a hardcore fan from the beginning, one of my top 5 favorite artists imo! Love every album and their growth through each one is incredible! Forever Endeavor Taproot!! 🤟🏼🤟🏼
This was an amazing video. I believe you did Taproot justice with the information you put out. Thank you! Taproot was a favorite band of mine back in the day and this video made me happy!
Thank you so much!!!
I'm glad that I was able to do that! It really means a lot :D
been along for most of this ride...love taproot and love to see them back. Great video
Thank you! Glad you enjoyed :D
Taproot is one of my favorite Nu-Metal bands of all time, always loved that they had a small bit of a metalcore flair to their sound whenever the heavier parts came on!
Great history lesson, this video was fantastic!
Thank you so much! Those words really mean a lot :)
And I'm very happy that I've been able to reach other Taproot fans with this video 🤘🏻
Interesting story, thank you for putting it in such a clear and entertaining video. Crazy how Victory Records just shows up every now and again [coincidentally they're with the "the Bunny the Bear" CD I bought the other day]
Never any pressure to make more videos, but I'll be watching if you do 🖤
The one good thing about Victory Records was definitely was their taste in artists during that era, haha
Thanks for watching and all the support as always 😇🖤
Who else had a 3 cd credit from Columbia House and took a risk on a band and self titled album they never heard of but took that chance because the description mentioned Deftones as a comparable artist?
I will forever say that Nu Metal (along with Metalcore) is the best Metal genre. Bands like: Linkin Park, Papa Roach, Slipknot, Mudvayne, Deftones, System of a Down and Taproot to name a few are the reason why I defend Nu Metal.
Nu Metal and Metalcore are for sure my personal favourite branches of metal as well! 🤘🏻
Cold is a personal favorite of mine also, Could you do a video on them? You just earned a subscriber for that comment. Drake video cheers 🥂 Chardon, Ohio
That's a video that I would definitely love to make eventually :) I can't make any promises in regards to when, though. I've got at least one other little project lined up already but Cold's on the list for sure!
@@FADEntertainment cool cool can't wait man. Keep em comin!🤘
@@floydsemlow8253 I'll do my best! Lately it's been very hard to find time for youtube because of school and some other life things, but comments like these are a big motivation 🤘🏻
Thanks for watching, man! :)
@@FADEntertainment I totally understand, you know great algorithm it's how I found you I mean I guess my music choice is a big part of that. Do what you got to do man. I'm here when you're ready ❤️
i feel like this guy watched a lot of reading rainbow growing up
😜🤣😂🤣😂🤣😂
Skrape is another goodie
New guitarist Taylor Roberts is a freaking solid fit for the band.
I'm the new Taproot video guy. We've filmed about 20 of the shows starting in 2023 for an upcoming DVD
That's awesome! Very curious to see how that turns out :D
@@FADEntertainment I missed out on Vegas this past weekend.But I'll be with them in florida and for most of the rest of the tour starting next week
alien ant farm, taproot and linking park was the first concert i ever went to. saw them all play at the electric factory in philadelphia, i think 2001! it was right before linkin park took off. i remember saying to myself that the second band was the best, which happened to be taproot.
That's such an awesome first concert to go to! 🤘🏻
Thanks for sharing :)
Steve is a genius songwriter and a badass in the studio, but his voice isn’t for everybody… and his live performances were always lacking.
His one dimensional growl, his flamboyant vibrato, his childlike lyrics, and his corny compulsion to act out his lyrics on stage are things that I feel have always held them back from the big show.
Cold is my favorite band...I am going to see them in 10 days and i got VIP tickets..Are you seeing Cold and Orgy this year?
I would love to, but they would unfortunately have to come to Europe for me to see them 🥲
Should have went right the F inside after he said that
