Jambase Review: San Francisco - August 7, 2011
rxbandits:
Orange County genre transcending band RX Bandits delivered an ear assaulting, heart tugging and cardio heavy last ever performance in San Francisco. This show was truly special, and everyone in attendance knew it as they belted out lyrics memorized long ago and collided with one another in the pit. This band has grown from a third wave ska band into a group with eclectic progressive...

Happy Birthday Steve Choi
sargenthouse:
Happy Birthday to Steve Choi of RX Bandits not just master of all musical instruments but also a supreme master of culinary fare. I don’t think I will ever taste roast pork as delicious as Choi’s. You have been an inspiration for many years to me. I can’t wait to see what you come up with next but I still have to ask you why you only have B- blood, why not A+ ? Love you my...

AP NET Remembers: RX Bandits
rxbandits:
When Fugazi came onto the scene around the tail end of the ‘80’s, they redefined punk rock onto a pedestal many will never be able to sit above, it turned a lot of heads for kids seeking progressive music from what they thought it was or could be.

LA Times / RX Bandits take a bow at final L.A....
sargenthouse:
The Glasshouse in Pomona has long felt like a home base for the progressive ska sounds of the RX Bandits. Crowded in a thicket of floppy-haired, bearded twenty-somethings, the swelling chants of “RXB! RXB! RXB!” on Saturday night were loud enough to drown out the thought that this would in fact be the second to last show of the band’s farewell tour, following 16 years, six...

I must have seen her face before I fell in love when I was born Now they hide her with a whisper It’s over
If I were to list out all the bands that I’ve ever seen live and list them in accordance to how many times I’ve dragged my ass down to some dive of a venue to see them, RX Bandits would proudly sit atop that list. Since my introduction to them back when they were just a...
