Test Your Reflex

Heavily inspired with the sincere and anthemic rock of ’80s stars like U2, Peter Gabriel, the authorities, and Simple Minds, TEST THOROUGHLY YOUR Reflex update that vintage sound right into a form comparable to contemporaries just like the Arcade Fire as well as the Faint instead of sticking with mere 1980s post-punk nostalgia. Shaped in the LA suburb of Thousands of Oaks, CA, in 2004 by vocalist and guitarist Ryan Levine, the music group also includes business lead guitarist R.C. Clark, keyboardist Andrew Ampaya, bassist Agustin Sanchez, and drummer Sal Cortez. Within a few months of developing, the band’s teenager idol appears and smartly vintage vibe had enticed a small-scale bidding battle which was ultimately earned by Sony BMG’s RCA imprint. TEST THOROUGHLY YOUR Reflex’s debut record, The Burning up Hour, premiered in early 2007, preceded with the initial single “Bits of sunlight.”
