Ladies and Gentlemen I Present, We Are The Take

“We don’t believe in fashion. We do believe in style. We don’t believe in taste. We do believe in flavour. We don’t believe in rules. We do believe in science. We don’t eat every day. We do make music every day. We sing about love. We sing about hate. We Don’t Look for attention, But do we have yours? We don’t believe in commercialism. We do believe in Success. We don’t believe in sleeping. We do believe in dreams. We are the take.”

It’s not everyday an indie band comes and sweeps me off my feet, its just not that easy. Usually it takes more than just a clever EP to convince me the first few tracks weren’t just good luck on the bands part. We Are The Take (Website / Myspace), however, knocks me flat on the floor, picks my ass back up, does it again and then sweeps my feet right off the floor where I actually feel like I’m flying. No, I wasn’t taking any ridiculous drugs! Thanks though. The band itself is a drug to me, NO NEED FOR S.I.I (snorting, inhaling, ingesting). That’s the best kind! The clever lyric and sound make for great tunes. If The Beatles and Neil Young had a baby, which would be completely impossible (but let’s just pretend like its not), We Are The Take would be it. It’s that kick back and relax, close your eyes kind of jam. Perhaps I should wait for their other tracks and then go on to make the previous statement, but at this point its what I can gather. I’m hoping to catch a show one of these days, because they’re always performing in Toronto and I suggest the same to you, unless you aren’t into the drugs that you don’t need to take to feel good. That is completely up to you.

For their complete band schedule, the wheres and whens of it all, check out their Myspace!

I don’t know about a love child between Neil Young and the Beatles, but “Somebody Out There” on their Myspace page is a solid song. Best opening lyrics “Looking for a cheap fuck…”.
