“A delightful mixture of melodic thrash and death metal” is what Dutch STATE:CHAOS produces since their start in early 2006. STATE:CHAOS was born as a simple mind spin of guitarist Mischa and eventually raised together with well experienced co-musicians from amongst others Callenish Circle and Desensitised into a thrash bashing death machine.

By the end of 2006, STATE:CHAOS recorded a four track promo entitled “Ashes Of Misery” together with Mangled producer Erwin Hermsen to attract the attention of fans, labels and media. Mission succeeded; when numerous enthusiastic reactions and promising reviews returned to the band. Since than the band has played a large list of shows, including large outdoor festivals like Elsrock and Urpop, and appeared as support for bands like Impious and The Haunted.

Early 2009 STATE:CHAOS recorded their first full length album “Chaos || Pain || Despair” at the PITstudios. Mixed and mastered by Textures mastermind Jochem Jacobs, the album shows a mature band delivering the new wave of Dutch thrash metal. For fans of bands like Hatesphere, Slayer, In Flames and Testament a must have.
During the recordings the band signs with the Doomstar Booking Agency and later signs with English label Casket Music for the release of their debut album.

By the end of 2009 drummer Martijn decides to leave the band to join the grinders of Cliteater, which he felt more close to his roots to. A short time later STATE:CHAOS finds a perfect replacement in Richie, who brings more opportunities and variety with his experience in poly rhythms and fast double-bass drumming. Now as a solid line-up STATE:CHAOS will blow your mind with their unique blend of crushing thrash and melodic death metal! « Minder
