District 97 Streaming New Song 'Takeover'

06/18/2015
. (Prog) District 97 are streaming their new song "Takeover" with Prog. It's taken from the Chicago-based outfit's third album In Vaults, set for launch on June 23 via Laser's Edge.

Vocalist Leslie Hunt tells Prog: "Takeover is one my favourite songs to sing with the band and it's actually the first D97 chorus melody that I ever wrote. Jonathan Schang started the theme with the verses and I followed suit. It's all about having cake and eating it too."

Drummer Schang adds: "I got the idea for Takeover after going on a bit of a Led Zeppelin binge. It's sort of my ode to Black Dog, with its knotty riffs pitted up against a heavy backbeat. I think the end result is a great example of D97's personal, proggy take on classic rock." Read more and stream the song here.
