The Chills - Kaleidoscope World

ciplnaveen

Review by naveen rajput

Kaleidoscope World by Chills is a masterpiece that showcases the band's talent and versatility. The album features a mix of jangly guitar pop and haunting ballads, all coated with the band's signature dreamy sound.

From the opening track "Rain," the listener is immediately drawn into the album's world, with its catchy hooks and introspective lyrics. The album's title track, "Kaleidoscope World," is a standout with its infectious melody and psychedelic undertones.

One of the album's strengths is its range of emotions. Songs like "I Love My Leather Jacket" and "Doledrums" are upbeat and playful, while tracks like "Submarine Bells" and "Wet Blanket" delve into darker themes of isolation and melancholy.

The Chills' frontman, Martin Phillipps, delivers heartfelt and sincere vocals throughout the album, and the band's tight musicianship is evident in every track. The album's production is also noteworthy, with its lush arrangements and dynamic soundscapes.

Great memories of gigs in Christchurch in the early 80's The Chills, The Clean, The Verlaines. Flying Nun was where it was at .

Gosh this so takes me to the time machine...if this tune doesn't mellow you out then I'm afraid there's not a great deal going for you. Reminds me of trips on my motorbike from Invers up to Duners back in the '80s to stay with scarfieville mates over the weekend...you know the drill...Pssssss off with the cap of that tube of home brew...then roll roll roll another numba, crank up the needle on the turntable and hi ho silva - the grooves on the vinyl are spewing out tunes from the Duners Sound bands: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dunedin_Sound
Tazzies, Baitspacerz, Chillz, Clean, X2Happeez, JPS Experience, Puddles, SFeellings, SFitz, TallDwrvz, Verlainz oh yeah cudn't bet it.

Real and raw. Great Stuff!!! Hard to find in modern-day music. New music often sound like "plastic". Very unreal.

I know it ain't perfect but seriously, what is wrong with anyone that they'd hit the down thumb on this fabulous ditty. Kaleidoscope World always leave me feeling happy. I had it on my walkman as I hitch hiked around South Island the west coast/Westland NZ. Hurrah for 'The Chills'.
