Reptile House concerts Tour 2024-2025

Biography

Reptile House were an art punk band from Baltimore, Maryland, active during the 1980s and sometimes assosciated with better known early emo bands such as Rites of Spring, Dag Nasty and Embrace, as well as fellow Baltimoreans Grey March. They were fronted by Daniel Higgs, who later went on to fame in indie and punk circles with his band Lungfish, a Dischord records mainstay and Baltimore post-hardcore institution. Drummer London May, who has been quoted as likening Reptile House to 80s San Francisco noise-punk outfit Flipper, also went on to play with ex-Misfits singer Glenn Danzig in the horror punk band Samhain. Reptile House's recorded output consists of an appearance on the 1983 compilation Bouncing Babies, a 1985 7" EP entitled I Stumble As The Crow Flies recorded with Washington, DC punk icon Ian MacKaye, and Listen To The Powersoul, a full-length LP released in 1988.
