Metamorphic rock outfit
RX Bandits have released their latest effort,
Mandala, TODAY via
Sargent House, and in celebration, have made the entire album available to stream for their fans courtesy of
AOL Spinner (
stream all of Mandala here!). The much anticipated follow-up to 2006's
...And The Battle Begun echoes the sentiments of a band who not only look to trump their previous efforts, but add a new chapter to the volume.
The songs that make up
Mandala highlight a more rock-oriented four-piece, scaling down the use of horns to create a new twist to their constantly evolving dynamic. That focus is illustrated further by the evocative artwork designed by visual artist
Sonny Kay. In an age where taking risks and being fearless can make or break you,
RX have emerged as a tidal wave, a force that shatters all the boundaries set against them. Over their decade long career, the band have drawn from numerous genres including prog, punk, rock, to reggae and the blues; reinventing and revolutionizing their persona while retaining their socially conscious lyrics and bravado instrumentation that have kept each musical progression unmistakable
RX. This concept has been the catalyst for the band's ever-growing fanbase, which revels in their uniqueness and continue to storm their celebrated, incendiary live shows.
