The Reptoids' latest, the three-track Slayed, goes from ferocious ("We Are the Wolves") to playful in an I-step-on-your-face kind of way ("Tramp Stamp")".
Chicago Reader

"the quartet's newest, Slayed-released at this show-an unlikely pair of new influences has begun to seep in: metal and a proclivity for catchy vocal melodies
The Onion

"Reptoids -Slayed. Holy shit- near evil hard and nasty punk (or maybe just rock) that is ten monster steps better than their last release."
Rocktober 45

Punky and spunky, the Reptoids growl in a way that recalls a darker L7 on their new album Slayed
Time Out Chicago

And good Lord, do Reptoids ever rock. We recently got our hands on its Park A Tiger album. Its six tracks of unapologetic punk with none of the pop sheen...

Loud, bratty, and straight to the point, they make no qualms about the music they play.It's raw, gritty, and damn heavy for a punk band.....As you listen more and more, the more apparent it becomes that there's more depth to the music than just turning the amps up as high as possible. But still, it's damn loud
PunkNews.Org

The Reptoids hail from Chicago and well frankly kick the proverbial shit out of a lot of other bands out there. You can rest assured that The Reptoids will strip paint from your walls at 30 ft.

Singer Kay Oh tries to be neither too cutesie nor unearthly evil but irresistibly strong and tough. The sonic thrills are an amalgam of minor-note garage rock and artsy darkness perpetrated by Melissa's avalanche guitar licks.
