"What X-Ray Press does is take what might be a perfectly normal song in another band’s hands and teach it to do things normal songs aren’t supposed to do. Time signatures change with each breath, jumping-bean guitar lines swap salvos with a bass that’s moving in the opposite direction and keyboard melodies pop in and out of existence randomly. Even the vocals oscillate between something approaching rhythmic singing and ragged screaming."
- Eugene Weekly
"Hell yeah. Jumping between jerky time signatures, with a jagged, frequently dissonant guitar opposite thundering bass-lines and fuzzy keyboard melodies, X-Ray Press got down old-skool Don Cab-style." - Seattlest.com
"There are the songs your mind will get lost in and there are tracks such as (She Tried) To Be My Therapist which give you a taste of a simple, humorous rock song." -Chico Enterprise-Reporter
"They’re a band to keep several eyes on." - Exoduster.com
"X-Ray Press put out. Their live shows are always exciting, high energy and weirdly memorable. The music is an original mash of 90s-era math rock elements - hints of Slint, Him, June of 44 - that deliver a unique abstract noise jam spontaneity, informed by the old school jazz background of at least one of the artists in the group. Highly recommended." - SPIN Magazine
