sound: Indie Rock/Progressive/Chill Sauce

Math-Rock proportional Indie Rock, elemental finger guitar tapping, four-time crash hits, wandering lead guitar riffs, raspy vocals. The Reptilian cover all the bases necessary to make an entertaining and admirable record. This short EP is foot tappin' and lazy chill, So... What are my Torso's Options? is  an electro and pedal orgy. This band's music gives off a magnetic vibe, drawing you into the full eighteen minutes of what this little record has to offer.  MTB fans, hop on board.  Check 'em out.

In the midst of waiting around for MTB to drop their new shit, i stumbled across this band. Who coincidentally have this killer fucking EP. The song that really hooked me on this band is You're Not Afraid of the Dark are You?  Mostly because it's really groovy and moody. Love the lyrics to this song, really melancholy and morbid, while being entertainingly upbeat in melody "four years of wading water/only to get this far". Let A Survivor's Code. My Code. is damn catchy too a nice end track to this record. It sort of gives of this mellow, kick ass vibe that just makes you wanna be at a show. Think a lot of MTB fans can get down with that feeling [need to get to a show btw]. Anyway they just signed with Suburban Home who's records it seems like i've been buying a whole lot of lately, so clearly they keep signing  talented dudes. Probably going to be forced to get this album on White, since it's actually really great. Be sure to check out You Stay. I Go. No Following. if it's anything like this, it's certainly worth pre-ordering the 7".
