New - Kaleidoscope - After The Futures... - LP

After two 7”s, an LP and numerous tapes Brooklyn’s Kaleidoscope are back with their sharpest release to date. This LP taps into the rich history of American peace/protest punk: Christ On Parade, Reagan Youth, Crucifix, A.P.P.L.E., A State Of Mind (remember them? they shared a split with Chumbawumba). I wouldn’t exactly call them D-beat – in an obvious sense, anyway – but early Discharge is definitely a source of inspiration for at least one song. Toxic State have done a US press, this is the UK version, released by LVEUM, and comes with a booklet.
