PRESS
“…These boys ain’t right in the head, not by a Long shot. That’s just one of the reasons they’re so damn good. Their live performances are nothing less than electrifying.” – Scott Hopkins/Music Fest News
Full Music Fest News Review
“… the band effortlessly melds [styles]. Experimental rock, psychedelic funk and more. I really need to emphasize how natural the transitions seem in the songs. There are vocals; some good ones at that but the music itself felt like it came first most of the time.” – Dan Weston/Divide and Conquer
Full Divide and Conquer Review
“Opposite Box, [who] has always been a controlled explosion on stage, still keeps that improvisational feel while adding funk and jazz to the mix.” – Dave Weinthal/Enigma
