Out today: REPTOID - Worship False Gods


Reptoid's new album Worship False Gods is out today on Learning Curve Records.

https://learningcurverecords.bandcamp.com/album/worship-false-gods

From Oakland, CA, Reptoid is a one-man, industrial-influenced noise-rock band whose sole member, Jordan Sobolew, pounds out his solo compositions live, without computers or backing tracks – just a mountain of drums, homemade devices, pedals, and a vocal mic strapped to his face!

Spastic rhythms congeal into hypnotizing songs, delivered from the perspective of an alien analyzing the human race... Highly recommended for fans of Daughters, The Locust, and Lightning Bolt!

"Loud, noisy, intrusive, and groovy... This is music that’s meant to challenge and soothe at the same time; listening to it, I feel like my mind is melting but I also want to dance."

–CVLT Nation

"Reptoid’s sound is futuristic and menacing. It’s as if you crossed modern-day Daughters with Lightning Bolt. It’s music for people who like their heavy with a heaping dose of weird and experimental."
–New Noise

"Oakland’s Reptoid is a rare breed to say the least. The mutant manifestations of Jordan Sobolew are all played live, contorting sounds into triggered noise and mangled industrial fury since 2014. The drums skitter across your ears (we recommend listening on headphones) and synths warp into a tangled mess of chip-tune like sound... It’s big, weird, and menacing, a bleak look into the void."
–Post-Trash


"A one-man, noise/industrial project by Jordan Sobolew of Oakland, CA. Made with drums, homemade fuzz pedals, noise devices and a sampler, it's spastic and pounding."
–Scene Point Blank

"Oakland, CA’s Reptoid is almost assuredly unlike any band you have ever seen, even as far as noise bands go... Yes, it’s loud. Yes, it’s out there. There is, however, a subtlety to the songs that makes them memorable for more than just the aesthetics... It’s noisy and chaotic at times, but there’s a sense of fine craftsmanship displayed here that really makes 'False Gods' a memorable listen."
–Nine Circles

"One-man industrial/noise-rock phenom who unleashes alien sermons and maniacal sounds via homemade gear..."
–V13


"Reptoid is a one-man noiserock deity... Pure, raw, industrial tinged heaviness."
–Fuzzy Sun
