“An illusrated guide to living in disgrace”
"A lot could have gone differently. But somehow, against all odds and logic, we became a group of punk rockers in Chicago, Illinois, making what felt like an atomic love bomb, and we knew it."
- Kai Slater (Lifeguard, Sharp Pins)
Beaming out of Chicago, teen-scene veteran Eli Schmitt (New Now, Unresolved Zine, Numero Group) has assembled Red Xerox, a compendium capturing the first years of the city's youth-beat Hallo-gallo scene. Releasing March 18th, the record documents a living, breathing movement. One that is still unfolding. Red Xerox features early cuts from Horsegirl and Lifeguard, who are now pillars of the scene signed to Matador Records, alongside soon-to-be classics and previously unreleased tracks from Friko, Post Office Winter, Dwaal Troupe, Sharp Pins, Current Union TM, TV Buddha, P. Noid, Amaya Pena, Free Range, and Uniflora. Each copy includes a handmade 24-page zine chronicling Hallogallo from 2019 to the present, transforming tape machine fantasies and typewriter communism into history. From pop perfectionism, to noise rock wonders, from Ecuadorian inspired folk songs to no-wave psychedelia, the compilation presents the full breadth of Hallogallo's musical diversity. One standout track is Lifeguard's "Crate," an unreleased 6 minute live track which takes listeners through a whirl of sound rhythm and an interpolation of the Stone Roses' "I Wanna Be Adored." "Crate," will be released as a single on February 18th, backed with “Baby, Woah!" By TV Buddha recorded at double speed and produced by Kellen Baker of Good Flying Birds.
The compilation marks the inaugural release from Desert Island Recordings, a new imprint launched by Brooklyn's iconic indie comic and zine shop, Desert Island.

Get a curated mystery pack of comics from us every month! Price includes shipping 🤗
HOW DOES IT WORK? ANSWERS TO YOUR FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS: When the subscriptions are capped on the 15th, all of the people who have paid during the previous 30 days are counted to determine our active-subscription head count for the next month. We then begin gathering material and packing your mystery packs, which takes few weeks. If you sign up near the beginning of a cycle, it could take as much as two months to receive your first package! This is not late, although it may feel like it, especially if you are charged twice before receiving your first pack. This isn’t Amazon. This is one small store hand-selecting a package of goodies for your every month. It takes time for us to select, receive, package, and send your packs, not to mention the USPS delivery time, so please be aware of that when you sign up! We sincerely want you to be ecstatic about your mystery packs, and ask that you please be patient have faith in us.
New subscriptions are only available for a limited time, allowing us to manage the project and shipping quantities.
You may cancel at any time, but there are no refunds for months which have already been paid.
Subscribers may not select or return Mystery Mail items.
Mystery Mail subscribers will all receive the same items for that month (there is no benefit of signing up twice, unless you want duplicate items).
Mystery Mail will be sent via USPS in the United States only. Our liability ends when the packages leave our possession, and any issues with shipping or damages should be taken up with the USPS.
