The Take - Elitist

Elitist from THE TAKEs upcoming "s/t" full length record. Expect the Release in June 2019. INFO: "Hardcore used to be followed by the word punk and that’s what we originally wanted to create”.  What emerged is a refreshing mix of punk, oi, hardcore and rock & roll with melodic yet raspy vocals and a new approach to underground music. Famed NYHC drummer Will Shepler (formerly of Agnostic Front, Madball) and Sick Of It All bassist Craig Setari (also formerly Agnostic Front) had an idea for a hardcore power trio.  Will called longtime friend, guitarist/vocalist Scott Roberts (formerly of Biohazard, The Spudmonsters, Bloodclot!, Cro-Mags) who had just left Biohazard only weeks before.  It was perfect timing for Scott as he wanted to move on and create something new from the ground up with complete creative freedom and passion.  Soon after, Scott and Will began working on what would become The Take’s self titled debut record.  Craig was busy with Sick Of It All’s hectic touring schedule so Scott recruited friend and oi veteran Carlos Congote (Royal Hounds, formerly of 45 Adapters, Urban Noise, Legion 76) to complete the lineup. “The Elitist” was directed and produced by noted filmmaker - legendary in his own rights - Drew Stone in a collaboration with Jeff Pliskin (Raised Fist Propaganda) Stone directed “The New York Hardcore Chronicles Film” as well as “Who The Fuck Is That Guy?” The Fabulous Journey which is now on Netflix. He also directed videos for Sick Of It All, Agnostic Front & Madball.
