Sounds Like"Tomorrow's Fossils" LP Press

NPR
"Instead of relying on a couple of offbeat songs to demonstrate a more experimental bent, Loxsly often blends familiarity and new ground within the same song, making for a more intriguing concept."

NPR's All Songs Considered

Magnet Magazine

DOA
"The familiarity sucks you in and the strangeness keeps you coming back for more."

Austin Chronicle
"...a contemporary, local triumph."

Flagpole Magazine
"Melancholy without being despondent, cute but not sentimental, simultaneously hi-fi and lo-fi—Loxsly has managed to balance seemingly opposing aesthetics to create an odyssey of experimental pop"

allmusic

Austin American Statesman
"sweeping, cinematic rock album with a rich sound combining vintage production tones with strange arrangements and synthetic sounds. "

New York Press

Americana UK
"a collage of sounds that fits together in a way that is more than the sum of its parts, sounding as it does like Sebadoh, musical theatre, experimental electronica and pop music. "

Austin Sound

Parasites and Sycophants

Aiding and Abetting

Largehearted Boy

The POP! Stereo


"Flashlights" EP Press

Said the Gramaphone
"A continuous loop. Though something is different every time."

Absolute Punk
"a tiny bit dark, a huge bit emotional, and thoroughly enjoyable."

Americana UK
"Carrying the torch for good songwriting "

If You Want to Sing Out
"...easily one of the best EPs of 2008!"

The Daily Texan
"Loxsly appl(ies) a dark, underwater sonic treatment that isn’t flashy or in your face, but draws the listener into a carefully constructed world filled with thick, buoyant bass lines, swirling organs, and shimmering piano runs."

Austinist
"ripe tunes with mature piano melodies"

Austin Sound
"Loxsly’s unique approach to indie pop-rock has given them the ability to rise above in a saturated genre."

Detour Magazine
"Their sound hearkens back to a time when the indie rock was still just a little alt., and even their relative quirkiness is quaintly familiar."

The Austin Chronicle
"Loxsly's Flashlights EP floats higher and lighter, abetted by pedal steel on opener 'Lamprey Eels' and piano on 'Chopper,'"

Instrumental Analysis
"Quite a pop-melodic treat."

Flagpole
"Loxsly’s four-song EP is a tightly produced and concise effort. . . . Loxsly’s driving mid-tempo rock is tinged with a slightly more haunting charm reminiscent of My Morning Jacket and The Flaming Lips."

DC Rock Club
"What I like about Loxsly is they straddle the line between familiarity and originality; they're catchy."

We're playing at Red Eyed Fly this Thursday night and could really use your support. We're bringing our friends The Cardinal Health (awesome band!) from San Antonio and we want as many friendly faces there to welcome them to Austin as possible. So come no later than 9pm, tell them your there to see us and stick around for our show and The Cardinal Health and all the other excellent bands! (The band at 8pm is pretty awesome too, so you might as well come then). See you there!
