Old Time Relijun is a band founded in Olympia, Washington, United States and a longtime member of K Records. Current members are Germaine Baca on drums, Aaron Hartman on upright bass, Ben Hartman on saxophones, and Arrington de Dionyso on electric guitar, vocals and bass clarinet. The reviews of the band are radically mixed among critics. Pitchfork Media gave one horribly scathing review[1] while another praised the band of "brilliance"[2]. The band first began recording under a home-made audio cassette label, Pine Cone Alley and were later adopted by indie label K Records. They are currently based in Portland, Oregon.
