Germany's GENERAL CHAOS Sign With Cyclone Empire
September 28, 2010, 14 years ago
Cyclone Empire have announced the signing of Germany's GENERAL CHAOS.
According to the label:
This band is a new beginning for some skilled metal side kicks. Reinventing the steel, baby! They carry the fundamentals of metal deep inside themselves.
We have Hendrik Bache and Flo Mueller crossing the guitar necks, who played for the German thrash authority DEW-SCENTED for ages. But a band can hardly exist by only two guitarists. Beating the shitout of his drums is Antek, well known from SUCH A SURGE and REVOLVER, from where he directly aquired bass player Henrik who is responsible for the low end groove.
Making General Chaos the perfect five piece is singer Ercument from TEPHRA. He does not have to play the guitar and sing like in his other band, but can focus on the vocals only making his voice sound even better!
Our reckless deathrock A-Team (previously known as NEMESIS LOVECULT) has laid their tracks on tape at Maarweg Studio2 in Cologne, Germany, and later mastered them in France giving them everything a modern metal record gotta have: Heart and soul, brain and guts, hate and above all: Balls!
Rumbling heavily between Swedish death`n`roll and the groove of PANTERA's New Orleans style metal, it`s a pure delight! In between here are some almost melancholic melodies sneaking in, but only till the next break!
Mostly Calamity Circus is pedal-to-the-medal-tear-down-the-house style but always with a smile on the face! There are more than enough metal wankers who seem to go down to the basement for a laugh! The General is after these guys with a ten-ton hammer!

The debut album, Calamity Circus, will be released on November 12th and it comes as a beautiful digipak with an awesome poster booklet and an artwork that shows a band and their love for detailed, humerous and cool artworks that never cross the border to all ludicrous or clownish crab and are 100% without any touch of stereotypes! But you have to see it yourself.
