"THE HEAVIEST THING TO COME OUT THE NORTH EAST SINCE VENOM"
Spewing forth from the guttural wastelands of Hartlepool in the north east of England, Dawn of Chaos offer old school death metal but with their own modern groove drenched technicality. Formed in June 2004 based on earlier foundation of an earlier version of guitarist Ken Turners previous band. Ken Turner recruited some of Hartlepool’s most talented redneck drunken bastards to form a sick act which would make young children cry.
Comprising of the demonic blasting of Ben Aldred on drums, the guttural growls and satanic screams of Paul Hartburn on vocals, the 7-string sodomising riffs of Ken Turner on guitar and the brutal groove of Dan Jones on Bass.
From Dawn of Chaos’s first gig in February 2005 they gained an instant reputation as one of the best live bands on the circuit and quickly started to establish themselves as a significant force in the death metal scene. Dawn of Chaos’s technical proficient brutality yet groove laden death metal has allowed them to share the stage with the most brutal of bands and also those outside of the death metal genre. Constantly upping there game and holding there own on stage in support of such heavyweights as Gutworm ,Entombed, Gorerotted, Raging Speedhorn, Sikth, Ephel Duath, Severe Torture, Evile, Desecration, Ted Maul, Orange Goblin, Man Must Die and many more, Dawn of Chaos have never looked out of place.
Major highlights for the band so far have been opening the very first sold out 2005 Damnation festival in Manchester. Dawn of Chaos’s stunning performance earned rave reviews and also got them voted the 7th best unsigned band in Terrorizer magazine. Another major highlight for the band was a supporting slot next to Tomas Lindberg’s (Ex At the Gates) current band The Great Deceiver. Dawn of Chaos performed a version of At the Gates classic Blinded by fear with Tomas joining them on stage to sing.
The end of 2007 saw Dawn of Chaos go to Base HQ studio’s and record there debut EP “From Dusk till Dawn of Chaos†with acclaimed producer Rich McCoull.
The beginning of 2008 has already seen Dawn of Chaos tour with fellow UKDM band Dead Beyond Buried in order to help promote there forthcoming ep .Dawn of Chaos also got hand picked to open for Anaal Nathrakh at there debut Scotland show in which Dawn of Chaos produced a solid performance were the crowd continually sang there name and wanted more. For the rest of the year Dawn of Chaos have the release of the debut EP as well as many headline shows up and down the country. Don’t blink as you don’t want to miss DOC in 2008.
