Rootwater is polish heavy metal group, formed in Warsaw, Poland in 2002 by Sebastian Zusin, Yonca and Pablo. Soon, Maciej Taff has joined the band as a vocalist. In their music there are many hardcore, trash, folk and punk, or even ambient influences clearly hearable. Name of band comes from The Gathering card captioned "Rootwater Commando". Group is famous for their psychedelic, technically perfect album covers. Many critics are comparing Rootwater's music to System of a Down music band's songs, what is probably caused by similar use of native "folkish" melodies by both groups. Rootwater's vocalist, Maciej Taff usually sing English, but some songs are sang in Hebrew (Hava Nagila), traditional balcan (Caje Sukarije), polish, or french (Climchoque).
