Official press release:
Prosthetic Records is proud to announce the signing of Tempe, AZ’s diverse black & roll band, Take Over And Destroy. The band is set to enter the studio in early 2016 with a summer release scheduled. Prior to recording their next LP, Take Over And Destroy will hit the road to test out new material to their fans.
The band comments:
“We’re excited to announce that the take over continues to grow as we join forces with Prosthetic Records. We’ve finished putting the final touches on the new album and will enter the studio first thing next year. Be ready to spin a new Take Over And Destroy record in 2016! Come see us play this material live for the first time ever as we execute our tour with Lament Cityscape across the southern United States.”
Since 2008, Take Over And Destroy has been relentlessly pushing the boundaries of heavy music. With an amalgamation of eclectic tastes: death metal, classic rock, doom, death rock, black metal and horror scores, TOAD has established itself as a truly unique entity, both sonically and aesthetically. The five members’ collective obsession with cinema results in their incorporation of the moody undertones of classic film scores into the raw power and energy of heavy metal and rock and roll. Stereogum did their best to describe this sound as “vintage horror-movie/swinging black-mass ambience.”
