Beaming onto the scene from the obscure nowhere, we find Reptaliens – an American band based in Portland, Oregon. Known for their distinctive indie-pop sound, they've dreamt up a niche universe full of weirdly captivating music and even weirder yet strangely alluring videos. Drumming up an impactful seismic shake in the industry, Reptaliens’ music videos are well worthy of a lingering pause. They’re renowned for carrying their quirky style into the visual realm, which is peppered with a good dose of extraterrestrial vibes and pseudo-simplicity.
A delightful exploration into the rabbit hole of their music videos begins with the track 'Prequel,' where an addictive milieu of cult-esque undertones and curious surrealism reigns supreme. Their other filmed gem 'Echo Park' channels a profoundly abstract and whimsical visual narrative, hosting a parade of uncanny mannequin characters. To top that quirkiness off, did you know that the band members themselves constructed and filmed most of their video props and sets including those surrealistic mannequins? The oddest twist? Their inspiration from a reported story in 1981 where a group of Spaniards 'contacted' extraterrestrial beings, a tidbit which seems to infuse an offbeat charm into their music and videos! Now that's a harmonic blend of music, video-drama and alien vogue!
