Revolt Magazine says:
With its incredibly tight songwriting, unabashed melody and constantly shifting genres, it makes for a fun listen that has a little something for everyone, and a lot to like for those who just love music. Whether your musical focus is narrow or ever expanding, this album should be an easy addition to any summer playlist.

Jersey Beat says:
Univox’s music is a hip mix of Modern English, psychedelic Beatles, and a big scoop of indie rock. Yet, instead of say, adopting a couple of salient characteristics of one of those bands, exaggerating them, and adding a informal imprint, Univox seeks a more careful blend, with a lot to add of their own… Throughout the album guitars, vocals, and tight rhythm section are the main ingredients; subtlety and diversity are a bonus. Talented songwriting and offbeat lyrics provide the solid foundation.

Big Takeover says:
In the last issue, I described this promising, Philadelphia, PA psychedelic indiepop rock quartet’s three-song ‘Pi’ EP as being a great debut for the band and that I was really looking forward to the full-length. Well, that day has come and all that can be said is that my humble expectations were completely trumped upon first listen and I’m now on my third. This is not your bog-standard indierock by any stretch and if you want to hear a so-called literate rock band that can actually rock, then you need to check this out. There are no comparisons out there worthy of describing this band. However, fans of bands like the Feelies, Glass Eye, Guided by Voices and Camper Van Beethoven will completely understand where this band is coming from. And they will enjoy this release with equal aplomb. If not, even more so. A very ‘now’ band that has a very bright future ahead. Yes!
Big Takeover Issue #66 is on stands now!
A.D. Amorosi interviewed us for the latest issue of Philadelphia City Paper and said some very nice things that made us blush.
…contagious as hell. Their crusty power-driven pop, which incorporates the noisily melodic elements of Sonic Youth with the frenetic splintered pace of The Stooges and a touch of Motown swing, is easily imaginable coming from car windows on a summer’s night.
Shucks!! Read the full interview here.

We were recently voted The Deli Philly’s Band of the month… they just posted an interview with our very own Josh Jones over here.
…
The Deli’s Featured Artist(s) of the Month: Univox
We had a hectic race a few weeks back between some great bands in our poll, but in the end the mighty Univox prevailed. We enjoy preceding their name with “mighty” because they certainly like to go BIG in their live performances transporting you into their strange little world. And when they are rockin’ out and then kick into those multi-layered harmonies, there is no doubt that you are at a rock show. We had a chance to catch up with guitarist/lead vocalist Josh “the Mongolian” Jones.
…
Hear Fang Island talk about that crazy, crazy night at the Spazzy House in Greenville where we first met… Then see us both play on May 27 at The Barbary in Philly. We played with these guys last month at Maxwell’s in Hoboken and to say they totally rule is an understatement!
