REVIEW/BIOGRAPHY:

The band considers their music to be "Extreme Viking Cyber Metal".They recorded at lot of songs for Australian Metal Compilations.There is series of videos on youtube with interviews, and videos of some songs they did,I guess this album would be labeled Industrial, but as with any label, there are tons of variences in the styles. Australia's Screams of Chaos are a strange mix of industrial, death metal, black metal and even classic metal..Originally released in 1996, only a few high priced copies fo this futuristic, ground-breaking Masterpiece made it to the U.S.A. This Australian band, led by Neil Johnson (aka as Galacticus Sarcophagus) was shrouded in mystery, as members of another well known extreme band from Australia wanted to keep their identities under wraps. Not for the faint of heart, musically, expect nothing less than extreme metal with some cyber-industrial leanings. This is not your mothers extreme metal band! Lyrically, Screams deals with the responsibilities and dangers of the scientific realm. Coming from a strong Viking heritage, Galacticus poses some disturbing scenarios! Rounding out this reissue are two essential bonus tracks. Remember comes from the EXTREME TRUTH COMPILATION, Volume 3 originally released on Rowe Productions in the 90's. In the Name of God is a brand new song recorded earlier this year, specifically for this reissue. Johnson was in New York City for the 9/11 tragedy, and this is what came from his experience. Don't miss out on this sought after classic! No one, and we mean NO ONE sounds like Screams of Chaos!...this is a classic. However, this album would stand out average , or below average in the present. The talent and the music seems average, but they chose to try out something that was rarely done. There is some Cybergrind influence, especially in the Vocals, and also in the Vocals are Death Metal/Black Metal influence. Screams of Chaos protests on the future and the ability to experiment on "The Genetics" and what consequences are involved in this, and how the abilities to genetically alter the human race can seperate us from Christ. For this reason, they chose Cybergrind, and Industrial Metal influences, which probably explains the background of the music. This one is worth to listen To And I mean NO ONE sounds like Screams of Chaos! Originally released in 1996, only a few high priced copies fo this futuristic, ground-breaking masterpiece made it to the U.S.A. This Australian band, led by Neil Johnson was shrouded in mystery, as members of another well known extreme band from Australia wanted to keep their identities under wraps. This disc is hard to evaluate because, while I only find the music moderately entertaining and the skill very average, the concept and mixture of styles is quite diverse. Each song deals with a futuristic world where genetic mutants end up in battle with humans, and one hears groaning robotic voices, interspersed with shrieks, saying things like "please don't kill me", master." That gains them creativity points. The music itself has a predominant Dark Industrial Beat throughout, especially with what sound like Synthesized Drums. At the same time, there is much Black Metal here, especially in the Vocals, and characters are given Unique Vocals. There are moments of Doom, and some Death and just plain old heavy metal as well. But the black industrial element is prevalent. Toward the end, the singing became more traditionally metal, but still with a special quality that took me awhile to peg. Finally it hit me--they were reminiscent of King Diamond! The bottom line is, there was little here which would bring me back to numerous repeat listens, but it was interesting to analyze the first few times through. Some could give it 5, some less than 3. Certainly, the conceptual creativity and compositional diversity is not average, though the musicianship is. Worth a listen(http://www.holymetalrob.com/)
