Gift is an acerbic and uncompromising tour de force that never once allows directionless bombast to triumph over stylistic artistry. That said, Taproot are certainly no slouches when it comes to bludgeoning. The band's Smashing Pumpkins-like wall-of-guitar soundscapes, disconcerting staccato rhythms, and vocalist Stephen Richards's vocal assaults are accentuated beyond sanity by Ulrich (Pantera, Static-X) Wild's trademark production chops to devastating effect. Eastern accents haunt the nagging choruses of "Again & Again." "Now" showcases the band's seductive light-and-shade dynamism and harmonic sensibility, while the closer "Impact" boasts a merciless, scorching delivery. Based upon Gift, star status seems assured for Taproot. --Ian Fortnam

If you want a CD that really blows you away, Taproot is a good choice. The phat beats and monster riffs add a great deal of flavor and excitment to the record. When I played this CD for the first time, I was in awe. The first track, "Smile," is just a sample of what's to come in the album. This CD doesn't lack anything, Taproot really livens up a dull party. The music you will encounter on this record is hard rock with a harmonic twist. Beyond the yelling, which never reduces itself to shrieking, the lead singer seduces you with harmony that is twisted in throughout every song. If you enjoy Staind, Limp Bizkit, or KoRn, you'll love Taproot just like I do. This has to be one of the greatest CDs I have ever bought!

What do you think when you hear the name Taproot, I hear ALSOME BAND FOR 2000. The first song I heard from there debut Album "Gift" was the track called "Come Back" and i was completely blown away by their head banging beats and rhymes. This cd will blow you away too.
