Take The Flame

What started as a solo metalcore project by musician, producer, and frontman Chris Kallian, has evolved into a powerhouse five-piece band known for intense sound and raw emotional depth. Initially blending aggressive riffs and anthemic melodies with personal themes of struggle and defiance, the project quickly caught the attention of listeners, leading to the formation of a full band to bring the vision to life on stage. With a live lineup now consisting of Chris Kallian on vocals, David Fulton on bass, Matt Casella on drums, David McArdle and Holden Morgan on guitar, the band delivers a sonic assault that blends technical precision with melodic hooks. Their sound fuses the heaviness of metalcore with elements of hardcore, post-hardcore, and atmospheric layers, creating a dynamic and ever-evolving listening experience. Chris and Take The Flame have crafted a distinct identity, delivering powerful live performances that resonate with fans.
