The Chameleon Script is the first officially released full-length album recorded by the band Howards Alias.

The album was released by Good Clean Fun Records on 28 October 2002 on compact disc. It was hailed as an instant classic in the rising UK ska-core scene, and received critical acclaim even from the UK's famous mainstream rock weekly, Kerrang!.

The album had predominant ska brass lines and guitar upstrokes, features that Howards Alias moved away from on later releases as their sound evolved.
