Taking Canyon- Eyes on the Prize
by Tim Wenger
In Denver, Taking Canyon’s new record Eyes on the Prize is a much needed circle in the square for the Ronnie Radke generation. Choosing the stay true to the pop-punk roots of the early 2000’s instead of the screamo-metal-wackjob music that replaced the genre’s place in the hears of rebel teens, Taking Canyon brings to the table some of the finest pop-rock vocal work our city has to offer.
The record dropped into welcome hands at the Marquis Theatre July 17, and we’re glad it did. Harmonic background vocals and melodic, pop-driven lead guitar sit over the typical power chord base, creating a unique sound and flavor. If these guys can keep it together and keep it progressing, big things could be in store.
