Taproot (band)

Taproot is a four-piece rock band from Ann Arbor, Michigan. They are most known for their hit single "Poem" (#5 most played rock track in 2002), as well as a number of other singles from 2000 to the present.

History

Formation and independent releases (1997–1999)

In 1997, Taproot sent their demo to Limp Bizkit frontman Fred Durst. Impressed with their material, he offered to get them a recording contract through Interscope Records. However, after extended negotiations, Taproot looked elsewhere, where they finally landed a lucrative record deal with Atlantic Records. Durst heavily cursed the band on vocalist Stephen Richards' answering machine. He also put some blame on System of a Down, who assisted Taproot in securing the Atlantic deal. In retaliation, Durst also kicked System of a Down off the 1999 Family Values Tour. Taproot later went on to independently release three albums: ...Something More Than Nothing (1998), Mentobe (1998) and Upon Us (1999).

Violent Seas

by: Taproot

Standing on a land unknown interpreting the same
Believing in a chance of hope and see it slowly fade
It's breaking far away replacing what I'm made of
Looking for a way to show that I'm
Searching for a faith who knows that I'm
Screaming for a place to go, 'cause I'm drowning in the violent seas
of being force fed societies
Shallow end of misery please take me away 'cause I can't
Stay looking for a way to show that i'm okay
Screaming for a place like home
Treading in the fears I own of ending up ashamed
While cornered in this life and prone
By overbearing waves
That steal what I have saved replacing what I gave up
