Tako

About

Fueled by an unwavering passion for rock and a gritty, working-class ethos, Tako, hailing from Ejea de los Caballeros, Spain, isn't just a band; it's a testament to enduring heavy metal spirit. They've carved a niche for themselves in the Spanish rock landscape by blending classic hard rock riffs with elements of progressive metal and a distinctly Iberian flavor, avoiding the sterile sounds that often plague the genre. Forming in the mid-80s, Tako (named after the word for cork used in glass bottle stoppers in the area) emerged from the vibrant Aragonese music scene, quickly gaining recognition for their powerful live performances and anthemic songwriting. Their breakthrough came with albums like "Duros de Roer" and "Jaque Mate," solidifying their status as a force to be reckoned with. While contemporaries often chase fleeting trends, Tako remains steadfast in their commitment to authentic, emotionally charged rock, appealing to a loyal fanbase that appreciates their unwavering integrity. Notable collaborations include sharing stages with legendary Spanish rock acts. Today, Tako continues to tour and release new music, proving that true rock 'n' roll never fades. They released a new album "El Amor Es Un Juego" in 2021, and a tour continues to spread their unique sound.
