"Take Out the Gunman" is a song by American rock band Chevelle. It is the lead single from the band's seventh studio album, La Gárgola. The song debuted on February 3, 2014, via the band's Vevo and YouTube channel, with the single being released the next day.
Critical reception Sound and Motion Magazine gave the song a positive review. They state "From the tones, the rhythms, the vocal delivery, it’s all there, if it’s been in a Chevelle song, any Chevelle song, it somehow got crammed into here, with a few minor, minor twists. Yet still sounds fresh and invigorating." They conclude that the track leaves you wanting more. Loudwire ranked it the fourth greatest Chevelle song.
