DAWN OF THE D-BEAT DREADS -- ENTER THE MIGHTY KAWAKAMI'S EARLY '90s ERA.

PIC(S) INFO: Now, here's a photo-set I've never seen before until now -- Spotlight on the late, great Kawakami "D-beat Master" of the mighty DISCLOSE, rocking dreadlocks.

Though the date of the photos reads November 1, 1987 (age 16? Really?), it's more than likely incorrect, as these surely must have been taken much later, c. 1992-1993.
