Taproot Biography
Ann Arbor, MI's own Taproot sent their demo to Limp Bizkit
frontman/business entrepreneur Fred Durst in 1998, not even thinking
Durst would call them back personally. To their surprise, he promised
the alterna-punk metal four-piece the world. But Durst obviously took
too long to deliver the goods, for Taproot -- frontman Stephen
Richards, guitarist Michael DeWolf, bassist Philip Lipscomb, and
drummer Jarrod Montague -- landed a sweet deal with Atlantic Records.
Durst felt betrayed and heavily cursed the band, but Taproot wasn't
fazed by such rude behavior. Their Velvet-Hammer/Atlantic debut, Gift
was released in June 2000 and unveiled the band's tough thrash sound,
heavy hooks, and beer soaked vocals. Thanks to support from Ozzy
Osbourne's son Jack, Taproot scored a spot at the second stage on the
2000 Ozzfest tour. Two years later, Rolling Stone hailed Taproot as
the next contenders for the new-metal crown. Indeed, Taproot was in
the running. They spent seven months in Los Angeles recording the
fierce, introspective Gift follow-up Welcome, and the press took
notice. Vanity Fair pegged Richards (and Taproot) as one to watch in
their 2002 Music Issue. The album eventually peaked at #17 on the
Billboard 200. Blue-Sky Research appeared in August 2005. Produced by
Welcome helmer Toby Wright, the album also included three songs
co-written with Billy Corgan. ~ MacKenzie Wilson, All Music Guide
