Blue‐Sky Research

Taproot

A lush, melodic pivot from nu-metal into expansive alternative rock. Dense vocal harmonies meet heavy, rhythmic guitars in a rain-slicked, mid-tempo atmosphere.

A sophisticated, rain-soaked introspection that balances heavy rhythmic foundations with lush, melodic beauty.

Moments Worth Listening For
The soaring, multi-tracked vocal harmonies that elevate the chorus of Calling into something almost ethereal.
The heavy, syncopated guitar chug of Facepeeler that reminds you of their aggressive roots before melting into a melodic bridge.
The transition into the hidden track What’s Left, where the album’s tension finally resolves into a somber, acoustic-driven coda.
