The Tryout: Reptar

I haven't found any new music so I thought this week's Tryout would be a recommendation from a former Tryout, Freelance Whales. They posted on Facebook about a band called Reptar, who are at Lollapalooza and are touring with up and comers Foster the People. The music is interesting and catchy and I think it will grow on me. I definitely see how they get compared to Animal Collective. Check 'em out and pick up their new EP Oblangle Fizz, Y'all!

UPDATE: OK, I'm addicted to this EP. Definitely recommend checking it out. The singer's voice originally struck me as a little whiny but I'm used to it now and am loving the songs.
