Our Long Road Home

Taproot

A warm, mid-tempo pivot recorded in a Michigan barn. Dense vocal harmonies meet stripped-back alternative rock for a vulnerable look at life after the big label.

September 16, 2008 · Velvet Hammer Music

Find on Amazon

A hopeful yet weary reflection on growth, industry scars, and finding peace in the familiar.

Moments Worth Listening For
The lush, stacked vocal harmonies on 'Wherever I Stand' that recall Alice in Chains but with a brighter, pop-leaning resolution.
The sudden shift into a heavier, rhythmic crunch during 'Take It' that reminds listeners of their nu-metal roots.
The brief, vulnerable interlude of 'Stethoscope' providing a heartbeat-like rhythmic pause before the final act.
