REVIEW: TAKE CHARGE: Pre-Contact: The Extermination Theory





In a genre that seems to be spewing out a new band daily and all sounding the same, we find a gem in the dirt. This gem is called TAKE CHARGE!


Take Charge! is an exhilarating, in your face deathcore band hailing from Clearwater, Florida and their debut release Pre-Contact: The Extermination Theory definitely the kick in the teeth debut a band should have. The EP begins with the track "Flies" which already starts in your face with a bone-crushing breakdown. The band does not stop there either. Already within just the first track you will hear some technical drum work by Ed Peña as well as the chaotic but perfectly syncopated guitar work by both Jake Mess and Neal Minor. Taylor Foster brings some of the heaviest bass lines thrown down on tracks this whole year. The vocals by Jeff Wester are unbelieveable. He throws them out with such depth and the high screams are bone-chilling.


Every track does have a certain heaviness that seems to build as the EP keeps going as if progressing further into your darkest dreams. You will notice a pattern in some tracks such as "Flies" and "Cancer Garden," the lead guitarist adds his own eeriness to the song by playing a dark riff over the breakdowns. It's something that one could definitely want to smash another's face to.


With this said, I suggest checking out the track "Cancer Garden" because this track really shows all their musical talents into one track but all tracks are good. Have a listen and check out this band. Hopefully this will lead to an amazing full length? Expect much from this Florida band.


MY VOTE:
5.0/5.0
