"Chaos Theory Rocks"

As promised, a few members of the Hype-fam stopped by the Seahorse to enjoy a few of Music Nova Scotia’s finest. While no adventure to New Music Tuesday is quite the same without our pal Bish and his famous slow-claps, good times were still in full effect. Warming things up for the Tuesday night crowd were the mellow and catchy sounds of The Scott Nicks Band and Fourth Well.

The headliners of the evening, who were one of the first bands to sign up for HalifaxHype.com, brought a certain shift to the dynamic of the show. Chaos Theory filled the Seahorse with a heavier rock sound that we labeled “melodic metal”. Citing influences such as Godsmack, Alice in Chains, Three Days Grace, and Van Halen and commonly described as “a sonic assault to both the mind and the senses”, this Halifax based band puts on a great show and rallied quite the crowd.

Not afraid to get down to brass tacks on the rock and roll front, we’ll sum the night up in six words: music – hard, tunes – catchy, lyrics – legit.

Feeling as though you’d like to hear more? Well visit their website. After you’ve acquainted yourself with their awesomeness you can get all the details you need for their upcoming shows at HalifaxHype.com.

Bio

THE MUSIC
The music is in your face, but it has a
soul, and it has a story. This modern heavy melodic rock or alternative
metal band has crafted their sound using angst ridden vocals and edgy
yet accessible riffs blurring the lines of specific genres. Song writing
is the main focus of this band and it is also their biggest strength.

The
band’s second album “We Are Disaster” (2015) is a shining follow up to
their award winning self titled debut album. The band has embraced a
more aggressive tone while still remaining true to their melodic
beginnings. “We Are Disaster” is a third eye view into a world that lost
touch with the best parts of the human element. It’s a worst case
scenario; of what’s left behind when we’ve push each other to
desperation. It’s a bit political, a bit social and a lot angry.
Fittingly, the band’s press shots were taken at an actual nuclear
bunker. Fans of heavier melodic hard rock like Sevendust, Godsmack,
Disturbed and Finger Eleven, will definitely want to add Chaos Theory to
their collections.

Chaos Theory’s live show is constantly
evolving and is hard to ignore. The dynamic vocals, hard-hitting riffs,
and technical drumming draw fans into their world. When you see Chaos
Theory live, you not only see the show, but you become part of the
energy. As one fan put it, "If you’re looking for a band to see – look
no further.  This is the band.”
     
THE BAND
The
band is fronted by the multi talented Rock Johnson, and he and founding
member  Lex Coulstring (guitar/vocals), join cohorts Shaun Cowell (lead
guitar), Shane Pardy (drums) and Tim Garagan (bass) to make up the
band.

WHAT’S NEXT?
As if a new album, a new
tour, a new video, and a new website weren’t enough, the intrinsic
desire to improve every aspect of what Chaos Theory is will keep the
band busy right through until 2016. Chaos Theory will tour Canada in
support of “We Are Disaster” during the fall and spring seasons, with
plans to return to the studio during winter months. Along with new
material for a third album the band was sights an acoustic EP and will
rework material from their debut album with their new line up.
