Life Disorder was not always the six man wrecking crew that it is today, actually only recently did they add the missing piece to their metal masterworks. Like anything the group has had its ups and its downs. Mostly Downs. The upside to constant problems and downfalls is that it makes them work that much harder. Besides there's no room for pissing and moaning in this line of work. The origin or the group can be traced back to the oldest and frontman Chad Kalhagen, a man blessed with the voice of an angel, an angel that can rip you a new asshole and then hush you to death in your sleep, its very raw and very brutal to hear him scream, but he has melody that goes far behind his screams reach, he's well rounded. Originally from McFarland, but grew up in the Portage area. Being a soul survivor of Catholic School, his rage was fueled. He wrote many songs, that the group still uses today, like the slow song FORWARD, one of his best lyrical accomplishments. He played with a lot of people in a few different experimental NuMetal groups, but they never really went anywhere, they played a few gigs, but nothing ever went too far.
Fast forward to December 2007 when Life Disorder had a gig at the Klinic in Madison. A comeback show actually since they had broken up a few months before and had just gotten back together. Alex Pope happened to still be in town from when he had come to see his family for christmas so he temporarily played bass one last time for the show. Out in the crowd however were two of Life Disorder's biggest fans Kevin Olson and Ian Reilly who attended the show not knowing that they'd soon be part of the band. After the show the band members talked with Olson and Reilly and Chad said they needed someone to scream due to the recent condition of him having problems with his voice and Kevin knew he had to take this chance and asked to be in as the second vocalist. The band also talked about needed a bass player due to Alex not being able to play in the band anymore besides his one-time appearance for the show and that was when Ian asked if he could fill the newly open position on bass and he did just that. Months later the new guys bonded with the band and wrote a new song called SAY IT'S OVER, and have played shows with LD from then on. Everything for the band is going even better than anyone could have ever imagined and this time around these guys are determind to make their mark on metal music.
