I first came across Taken just after ‘And They Slept’ was released and I was straight up hooked on how they composed their songs. Chad and Eriks guitar harmonizations just mesmerized me. Rays vocals so heartfelt was all this teenager growing up in a small town in Utah needed. This album played such a large part in my early years that I still pass on to anyone who’ll listen! Taken still lives!
never knew about this band back in the early 2000"s but I did see them play with horse the band last year...amazing band, reminds me of Alexisonfire,In Pieces,This Day Forward,Beloved.
They came out with a new EP in 2018, plus they've got tickets to a show in NYC on August 25th. It's still a shame they had broken up right after this EP. I can only imagine how their career would've gone right afterwards. But hey, the newer music sounds pretty good and the style is pretty similar to here.
how post-rock this sounds. its like, its why they call it post-hardcore, not because it came after, but because of the post. i hope this was a coherent post
I forgot how good this band was. I played in a band in the early 00's. Unnamed sorry. Not really similar in style, etc to this band. We actually had the fortune of playing some kinda indoor skatepark in OC in some strip mall with Taken, early ass version of Ghost Inside (singer I think only), and Bullet Train To Vegas.... like 2003 or 2004. Super last minute, but it was actually incredible. This band was fucking phenominal.... and weren't even supposed to play.
Possibly "And they slept" or their EP "Finding solace in dissenssion" ? I just own this album, but used to have mp3s of the others. Probably very hard to find nowadays :)
Their discography is pretty cool, but quite short. This album is their more polished work and, to me, their finest. However, "And They Slept" was pretty solid in my memories. I see that someone uploaded the album, so it's time to give it a new listen!
too screamo? dude sometimes shit means so much to you, one must scream it. taken is the vision. others are fuckin 'screamo' read the god damn lyrics, and memorize em while you are at it

Some of the best stuff ever
Best album ever 🤘🤟🎵🎶
Yup
pretty much : P
I listened to this album everyday for years. Too bad they broke up and didn’t really tour on this album.

I just saw them in Philadelphia, and they were so good! I'll be uploading a live version of this song today.
Best ~24 minutes of my life.
thanks for this!!!!!!!!!!! My friend bough this cd at Hot Topic in 2004
Opening for this day forward in August
Going to be a blast
Both Philly shows were amazing! Never expected to see any of those bands again, let alone together.
Best record ever made
Both of their albums are combined as one on Band Camp. Get them!!!!!!!
One of the best records in existence.
Poison The Well meets Hopesfall
A perfect blend of those three
naw, just taken
A dash of Shai Hulud as well innit?
Beautiful!
God I love this fucking album...
Merci!
De rien!
Hell yeah

I CLOSE MY EYES

So underrated
Thanks for uploading this album. Do you remember the album they had before this? I can't remember. I use to have it.
Possibly "And they slept" or their EP "Finding solace in dissenssion" ?
I just own this album, but used to have mp3s of the others. Probably very hard to find nowadays :)
new generation mus be check this band! old emo never wrong!
@Déjà Siku dude....shut up who cares
@Déjà Siku ok, its scream then
I think the actually classification for the genre that this band falls under would be “simply perfect.”

too screamo, taken use to be cool, try the older albums
