The Owl Magazine CD review:

Thank God! A band that is serious about it's music but that doesn't take themselves too seriously. This young San Francisco three-piece is writing songs that rock and make you laugh at the same time. Beyond the lyrical humor, these guys are superb songwriters that definitely created a rock'n'roll vibe for themselves on their album Original Sound Recordings. The quality production on the album coupled with dynamic arrangements and a sense of humor really give the band a depth beyond their years.

Heavy but melodic and straight-ahead is the style throughout the album. The humor is obvious in songs like "Crazy Bitch," "Porno Movie" and "DJ In Yo Band" which is a spoof rap song. The rocking continues on a more serious note with "Pops Fight," "How It Feels," "Circus" and "Blood". "Someone Like You" offers a softer side and "My Best Friend Is A Punk" taps into a dark and perhaps coping sense of humor.

AMPSEX has tight songs that rock and the band is able to relate to their audience with a depth that not many young bands can match.

Stoner Rock Album Review:

These California natives mix loud guitars with quirky lyrics in a cornucopia of hard rock and punk overtones. Catchy melodies and interesting hooks abound with Ampsex. This three piece will stop at nothing at rocking the hell out of you. The line has been drawn and Ampsex has the upper hand.

There is a sense of sarcasm and wit within the entity that is Ampsex. The band has a very accessible sound; the songs are short and to the point. The guitar tone has the crunchiness of Guns `n` Roses, with a punk attitude and pop sensibility of Weezer. The lyrics are painted with sarcasm and irony in the same sense of System of a Down. The band is tight and the production leaves some room for breathing.

So whether the listener is in a punk mood or a hard rock mood, Ampsex will be able to satisfy that hunger. The riffs will grab a hold of you and not let go. All you’ll be able to do is cry to mama.

So, a lot of bands like to involve themselves in what we like to call “self-hype”. That is great. We encourage you to listen to the music and decide for yourself…
