The Reptilian

The Reptilian are a three-piece post-hardcore/screamo band from Kalamazoo, Michigan that formed in 2008. In terms of sound, they play an intricate brand of screamo that takes a lot of cues from Midwestern emo, with the twinkly, reverb-heavy guitar sounds and such. Throw in some complex drum patterns and shouted vocals, and The Reptilian make for a very interesting listen. These guys are incredible musicians with a solid amount of output in the past few years, so there's no shortage of awesome here. I'd recommend Full Health if you're new to them, because that thing is full of phenomenal songs. Enjoy.

Ordination Of Aaron

Ordination Of Aaron were a five-piece post-hardcore/emo band from Kalamazoo, Michigan that were around from 1993 to 1995. They toured throughout the east coast and Canada, and put out a small amount of recordings between EP's, compilation appearances, and one LP. Almost their entire discography was included on 2000's Completed Works, and any of their material that wasn't included is linked separately. Ordination Of Aaron take clear influence from Sunny Day Real Estate, but in a rawer form, which could draw comparisons to Indian Summer or The Hated. Though they formed a few years later, I Hate Myself are also pretty comparable to Ordination Of Aaron. Damn good band. Enjoy.
