TEST YOUR REFLEX- AVA ADORE
Cover of The Smashing Pumpkins song from the Myspace Tribute To The Smashing Pumpkins released by Myspace Records, Helio and Spin Magazine in 2007.

Heavily inspired by the sincere and anthemic rock of '80s stars like U2, Peter Gabriel, the Police, and Simple Minds, Test Your Reflex update that vintage sound into a form akin to contemporaries like the Arcade Fire and the Faint rather than sticking to mere 1980s post-punk nostalgia.
Formed in the Los Angeles suburb of Thousand Oaks, CA, in 2004 by singer and guitarist Ryan Levine, the band also includes lead guitarist R.C. Clark, keyboardist Andrew Ampaya, bassist Agustin Sanchez, and drummer Sal Cortez. Within months of forming, the band's teen idol looks and smartly retro vibe had attracted a small-scale bidding war that was eventually won by Sony BMG's RCA imprint. Test Your Reflex's debut album, The Burning Hour, was released in early 2007, preceded by the first single "Pieces of the Sun."
No Country (named Test Your Reflex from 2004--2009) is an indie rock/pop band from Los Angeles, California. The name change coincided with the end of their contract with RCA Records. As "No Country" the band remain unsigned. Their only release since leaving RCA was a single as the fictional band Low Shoulder for the soundtrack to the 2009 film Jennifer's Body. On July 14, 2010 the band put out two singles on their MySpace page.

The band's debut release was The Burning Hour (released April 24, 2007) on RCA Records. The album has been described as having an 80s sound with hints of U2, The Cars, and Simple Minds as well as The Cure and The Killers.

The band featured on the MySpace Tribute to the Smashing Pumpkins album released on MySpace Records and distributed in the July 2007 issue of SPIN Magazine.They liken themselves to other bands on the Pumpkins tribute, such as The Bravery.All tracks appeared on each band's MySpace page from May 14, 2007. Test Your Reflex opened for The Smashing Pumpkins on July 22, 2007 at The Fillmore in San Francisco. Before that, from March 22, 2007 to May 12, 2007, Test Your Reflex toured the US with the Detroit-based band Electric Six.

Television performances include two appearances with Carson Daly. On June 22, 2007 the band appeared on Last Call with Carson Daly and the following month performed on the Carson Daly show (aired July 12, 2007).

Their song "Thinking of You" is featured as the background music of a radio commercial for Michelob Golden Light beer, heard in the Twin Cities and other markets in the midwest where the beer is sold.
