Biography

Name Taken was a pop-rock band from Orange County, California and formed while the group was still in high school. The main lineup included Chad Atkinson (Vocals/Bass), Ryan Edwards (Rhythm Guitar) and Blake Means (Lead Guitar). While they were active, they had three different drummers; Bret Meisenbach, Danny Valencia, and most recently, Juan Pereda, who did not perform on any records but played their live shows. Before embarking on a planned European tour, the band split up in 2005. On May 5th and 6th, 2007, they reformed shortly to play back-to-back shows at Chain Reaction in Anaheim, CA. Paul Riscalla, formerly of Dead Letter Diaries, played drums for the show. Both nights sold out. Despite playing some newly written songs, the shows were a one-time event and the band currently has no plans to continue. Atkinson and Means are currently attending a Cal State University at Fullerton while Edwards is attending U.C. Berkeley.

    Lyrics
    You break me in two, tear me into
    You looking back regretting every move
    And I'm wearing thin, but they're not wearing out
    Time takes its toll and the distance is greater
    Loss of control, we lost it

    Lyrics
    It's what you want and who you are. That has always been two very different things. So I wore my best clothes on my last day. That I had to carry us in our uphill war. But I dropped you. Under the shelter of an old friend. You didn't mind then. So don't now. (And is this what we're fighting for?) So why don't you tell me how it was too little too late. As far as I can see it was the best we could do. This is what I faught for. This is not. So why don't you tell me the truth. And so she screams to her best but I. I used to be someone better back then. And she used to be someone better back then. And it's what you want and who you are. That has always been two very different things.

    Lyrics
    We will cheat you out of everything, that you would
    We will sell you who you are
    there are the choices that we already made
    That we feel
    Will suite you well

    Lyrics
    Do you remember when you and I
    Were less than us and we
    Covered up what little was left of me
    And became one in the same
    The colors fading into nothing

    Lyrics
    so now you hear what took you years to listen for
    but still i can't make out the words
    its the message that makes you miserable
    but still...
    burning alive from the inside
