While its sound has morphed into more ambitious territory, Rx Bandits take themselves way too seriously all too often on Mandala.

You would think that "ska" is a euphemism for "leprosy" with the reaction the word receives from most people. Even the faintest whiff of the despised genre in any music is likely to leave the listener with the thought "yeah, it's not too bad, but it sounds like 'ska', yuck".

Orange County rock veterans RX Bandits released their sixth studio album, Mandala, this week. Often when a band reaches the six album total their best, most interesting work is long behind them. What makes this new record from RX Bandits more intriguing than most is the dramatic line-up changes that have happened between their last album and this. The band has dropped their horn section,

My favorite track off one of my favorite '06 releases by one of my favorite bands...Speaking of favorites, I just found out Explosions In The Sky added a Seattle tour date. And tickets are only $10. How fucking cool is that? I can't wait. Oh man, I can't wait.

TOO MUCH CAFFEINE!!! AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!!!!!!I got a venti mocha from my supervisor as a Christmas present (well a gift card for Starbucks, but that's what I used it on) and if that weren't enough, some creepy guy who always hits on a female co-worker brought her a big vanilla latte, but she had already left for the day so he gave it to me. Besides coffee, the only things I've...

"If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am only a resounding gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy and can fathom all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have a faith that can move mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give all I possess to the poor and surrender my body to the flames, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is pati...

The last time I saw the RX Bandits, I was bummed out because...1) I had to leave after about a half hour of the set2) They were playing at iMusicastFor what I was there for, it was awesome.

One of th...

The Rx Bandits are hands down one of my favorite bands. They're one of the Drive-Thru bands that survived my musical taste meltdown. Started in '97 under the hard-to-spell name of Pharmaceutical Bandits they quickly drew upon the thriving ska scene in SoCal. After releasing a demo, they were picked up by Drive-Thru Records. "Those Damn Bandits" was then released, with only 1,000 copies pressed....
