CD Reviews
All we need right now is love

"Rx Bandits are my second favorite band behind Pink Floyd, this is my second favorite cd of theirs behind Progress, which is like saying Godfather Pt.1 is my favorite behind Pt.2, they are both so great. This cd is different from anything else you will ever hear, the sound on this cd is hard to explain, maybe ska,reggae,rock,jamband-ish.This is a great cd to get stoned to, if you are into that. But otherwise this is an amazing cd, and the DVD is a great addition, a good preview to how amazing they are live. I saw them live last summer, and it was the best show I've ever been to. The lyrics on here are great, the music is unbelievable, and the message is one that should be heard."
Household name in my house indeed

"This is the best live band you will ever see in your lifetime, I Skanked so hard when they played this album live I almost passed out. They are very down to earth, they hate the Radio, and they have brought back SKA in a way you wouldn't believe until you listen to this for yourself! This is the most creative sound and not many other bands should be allowed in their presence!!! Support SKA and we just may see more awesome bands like this."

"This band takes their music seriously. They push themselves to the extreme to bring you the sweet sounds of rock. Their style is ingenius and extremly unique. Cannot be touched"
Give it a Few Listens

"Classification of this album is difficult. It's equal parts ska, punk, metal, dub, reggae, and God knows what else. But, Matt and the gang pull it off. At first, it might not come off as good as their previous album "Progress" (which if you don't smoke enormous amounts of pot, get first. You'll thank me later.) But, it grows on you. It's experimentation puts you off at first, but as you listen to it more and more, you come to appreciate the complexities of it. Soon, you'll realize what a masterpiece it is musically, and lyrically the brilliance of it. Once again, if your just getting into them start with "Progress" (Their first 2 albums were embarassingly bad, so don't even bother.) But get this soon after: you will never regret it."
Why are these guys not a household name???

"I am clueless as to why these guys aren't ridiculously popular. They've grown since the last album. They have tremendous talent with the music, the lyrics are fresh, cutting, full of meaning, and easily gets stuck in your head. They hit home on a multitude of topics including the current political state of affairs. This is one of the very few bands I can listen to on repeat and not even think of changing the cd for weeks at a time. HIGHLY reccomended! As a musician of 15 years, I tip my hat to the Bandits. Well done, and please, Don't stop!!!"
