Deadline - We're Taking Over
Deadline, a French/English band, has just released their fifth full length album called We’re Taking Over. Since the beginning of the band there have been a lot of line up changes but finally since a year or two the band is quite stable. We’re Taking Over is the second album of these punk rockers for People Like You Records.
 
With only four new tracks on this album, which is for the rest filled with live recordings, this is not my idea of a new full length album. On the other hand it is a great way to get to know the band and you can hear the reactions of the people present at the gig. The recordings are from a show at Lichtenfeld Stadthalle and contains no overdubs or whatsoever, at least that’s what the band tells us.
 
As for the four new tracks on the album they are just in the line of the former songs of Deadline. Straight forward edgy punkrock with female vocals. A nice contradiction is the second track ‘We Are Not American’ which has a great ska vibe in it that makes it almost impossible to sit still. After that, it’s on with ‘Smell The Coffee’, which isn’t an ode to that wonderfull black fluid. ‘We’re Taking Over’ is the title track and also the last new track on the album. After this, it’s on with the live recordings.
 
In the end you’ll have an album with four new songs and a bunch of live recordings. Again a great way to getting to know the band but I wouldn’t really call this a new full length album. The new tracks on this album are great punk songs with a lot of energy in it. So for a reasonable price it’s a great album.
