Reptile (Icelandic Risaeðlan) is a band from Iceland on the record label Bad Taste. Reptile is known for its over-the-top theatrics in their music, which combines pop with other instruments such as marimba, saxophone, banjo and violin. Their debut album Fame and Fossils was released in 1990.[1] Reptile disbanded in 1992.[2] Their label released a compilation CD called Efta! in 1996 under their Icelandic name,[3] which includes newer songs recorded for a second album, earlier singles and b-sides and songs from Fame and Fossils.[4]
