CHOSEN

About Me

Fusing elements of extreme metal with crushing heaviness, CHOSEN are a band fully intent on taking their multi-layered music to a wider metal audience. Since the group's inception at the start of 2005, these enthusiastic stalwarts have gradually made a name for themselves within the metal community, gaining much recognition and appreciation for their solid musicianship, distinctive songwriting and high-energy live shows. To date they've released a number of independent and well-received EPs and recently relocated half way across the world to Vancouver, Canada where they resided for a year, ending in a Canada-wide tour and then returing home to Ireland.

"A band that has worked hard and under unusual discipline to produce
what very few other bands in the country would be capable of".
Metal Ireland Webzine
"Crossing the groove of Meshuggah with overt Death and Nevermore
influences, their demos to date have been nothing short of impressive".
Terrorizer Magazine
"These guys know how to knock the shit out of a song; they do it with skill, originality, aggression, and undeniable talent".
