Recalling Gauntlet Hair were the Lafayette duo reared on the surreality of Kevin Barnes and Paul Simon's Graceland and not the sound of reverb clanging back off garage doors, Sebastian marks the return of Athens, Georgia five-piece
Reptar. The lead single and indeed opening track off an intriguingly entitled debut full-length, Body Faucet (slated for release May 1st), bristles with a deranged vocal urgency evocative of that yodelled by Isaac Brock that's stitched into a patchwork quilt of oohing, aahing, and a wild
Flamingods-esque ethnic infusion that's as refreshing as the richest coconut milk. An exceedingly beguiling glimpse into a record more than likely to enthuse were it pumped through into the waiting room bursting with those rabidly awaiting Yeasayer's latest.
Reptar.
