Kettle Rebellion (proto-Mischief Brew) stream long-lost album

Folk punk enthusiasts: Mischief Brew have unearthed a long lost album from the band's earliest days, when they were called Kettle Rebellion. The eight song album will be released April 1 on Fistolo Records (250 copies, Oxblood vinyl.) The album was recorded in 2002 and the masters were promptly lost or stolen. According to the story circulating around the web today, some tracks leaked online over the years. Eventually, Mischief Brew found that they did have these recordings in bits and pieces and were able to reassemble them for this release. Kettle Rebellion was formed in 2001, toward the end of The Orphans' run. After the Kettle Rebellion recordings went missing, the band decided to pursue other interests but soon got back together as Mischief Brew.

This is not the kind of finding that happens every day, so enjoy it. There have been many exciting releases so far this year, but at 12 years, this is by far the oldest. Punk News has the album streaming in full so there is no need to wait one more day to hear these songs. The songs sound like Mischief Brew in their full-out electric form, which makes sense if they were written while The Orphans were still active. Mischief Brew is currently working on their next studio album, "This is Not For Children." Earlier this year, they released a career-spanning collection of demos called "Thanks, Bastards!"
