This Arkansas-based band have burst onto the scene bringing a fresh new touch to a tried and tested traditional hardcore sound. In the vein of Stretch Arm Strong and Comeback Kid, the young quintet have crafted a musically strong and lyrically powerful album with a vision to see the message of Christ spread into the lives of those who do not know it. With lyrics that focus upon forgiveness and the grace of Christ this is powerful stuff. Tracks such as "A Struggle To Stay Standing" are provocative, and in this age of messages being hidden in poetic and difficult to interpret lyrics it is inspiring to see such young musicians taking a much more direct approach to their music and their ministry. Take It Back are definitely a band to keep an eye on because 'Can't Fight Robot's', with its varied yet familiar sound.
