“The Takeover was born out of a need for change. Our music scene is littered with greed, selfishness, and apathy. Out of our frustration and disdain toward this full grown tumor, which parasitically sucks the life and art from our veins, we seek to establish simplicity, integrity, and honor in the live music community.”
The Takeover is led by San Antonio metal veterans Angerkill (AK) and Deadpool (DP). Both bands have persevered in the local and regional music scene for 10 years. This type of longevity and relevance is uncommon, thus making this pair the perfect representatives for the upcoming revolution.
During the course of their respective decade long
existence, many lessons were learned and mistakes made out of naivety were common. With age comes wisdom, and they have found a better way. Simply stated, The Takeover represents the decision to take control.
The Takeover is not completely cynical. AK and DP must stress the importance of having the support of key individuals and institutions (you know who you are) over the last ten years. AK and DP express their allegiance to these allies, and ask for their continued support!
The line has been drawn….a new era begins.
