A Soundtrack To the Road: Taproot's Phil Lipscomb

If you've ever sat back and wondered what your favorite musicians listen to while they're traversing the globe from show to show, Get eXposed has you covered. If you’re neurotic, like us, you’ll want to read this, as we make your dreams come true by sitting down with Taproot’s longtime (and ultra-talented) bassist Phil Lipscomb to find out just what mostly compromises his road-tested playlist.

“These are my top 10 driving albums of all time because whenever I’m on a long drive, these are what I mostly gravitate to,” Lipscomb said.

Phil's Playlist:

1) Red Hot Chili Peppers - Blood Sugar Sex Magik

2) Stone Temple Pilots - Purple

3) Iron Maiden - Seventh Son of a Seventh Son

4) Bon Jovi - New Jersey

5) Deftones - White Pony

6) Biffy Clyro - Blackened Sky

7) Primus - Tie Between Sailing the Seas of Cheese and Frizzle Fry

8) System of a Down - Mezmerize

9) The Chronicles of Israfel - Starborn, Tome I

10) Rage Against the Machine - Rage Against the Machine

Hopefully Phil’s list can help to awaken your playlist if need be, and if there are some titles of there you’re not yet aware of, be sure to go check them out, and while you’re at it, make damn sure to check out Taproot’s latest The Episodes (read our review of this fabulous album here) if you’re haven’t already (spoiler: you should have by now).
