There are not very many young bands that can tactfully borrow from the past and melt themselves across genres. But the Takeover UK successfully take the pop sensibility of the '60s and marry it with Class of '77 punk rock. Unabashedly pop, with a punk attitude shining through thick power chords and vocals that teeter between sugar and snarl...this IS exciting pop music.
Huge hooks and smashing choruses flirt with one another in songs such as "Ah La La," while the band's inherent charm shines through in tracks, "Evelyn" and "The Lonely Ones." The Takeover UK are as charismatic on record as they are live, with an astonishing ability to craft scores of classic songs that make people move. Having two prolific singer/songwriters, a band like this doesn't come around that often.
Out now, just in time for summer, is the EP It's All Happening, to be followed by the debut full-length, Running With The Wasters - both out on Rykodisc.

Words are flowing out like endless rain into a paper cup, They slither while they pass, they slip away across the universe Pools of sorrow, waves of joy are drifting through my open mind, Possessing and caressing me. Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Images of broken light which dance before me like a million eyes, That call me on and on across the universe, Thoughts meander like a restless wind inside a letter box they Tumble blindly as they make their way Across the universe Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world. Sounds of laughter shades of earth are ringing Through my open views inviting and inciting me Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns, it calls me on and on Across the universe Jai guru deva om Nothing's gonna change my world, Nothing's gonna change my world.
We born; And our existence is now part of this mortality The Light that exist illuminating us Our senses feeling the immensity Our thougt astonished by immensity A gift of capricious colors
We died; And all our existence is converted In one minute in the past and now We are dreaming in eternity Now, We are part of eternity
Hey guys. Those are some good songs you have thus far and it's nice to see this coming from Pittsburgh. I have a 20 minute music show called The Pittsburgh Pulse that I produce for free and the focus of it is to give local musicians some guaranteed free exposure online. A portion of the show is an interview and the following is basically a music video for 2-3 songs. I have both a video and sound crew and we film at the venue, Connections Cafe (used to be a Brave New World), in Pittsburgh. Check out some of our videos if you are interested. Help us to promote the music Pittsburgh has to offer www.myspace.com/pittsburghpulse
