Album Of The Day: Kaleidoscope Superior by Earthsuit

Album Art of Earthsuit's Kaleidoscope Superior album - A photo of blue plastic man parts just after they came out of a mold on a blue background, such that they are still in the square bits with the small bits of plastic connecting each piece to the others. They are blue on a blue background. Printed above the photo on the top is the band name in LED-style blocks making up the words, with random blocks lit up on each side of the word in a deep pink. At the bottom, more blocks in an off-white over the photo with the album title name printed in small letters next to them.

"Do you enjoy the distortion?" Released 25 years ago this Friday (June 20th), this is the only label release by Earthsuit. This unique rock band incorporated elements of hip-hop, electronica, soul and reggae into their music. This album has lots of fun musical experimentation and is definitely more about fun jamming than any sort of message, although a few songs definitely do have religious references. This was one of those albums that definitely broadened my horizons of what music could be and made me realize I liked a lot more than just what was played on the radio or what most considered "normal" music. Some of the members of this band went on to form the band Mutemath 3-4 years later, which became one of my favorite bands ever. This album is a great collection of songs that is worth a listen for rock fans.
