Biography

New York City's Full Blown Chaos first unleashed their uncompromising metal/hardcore assault via a self-titled 2001 EP, which was later released on one-time bassist Ed Conroy's Jailhouse Records. They built a following opening for groups like Hatebreed and Sepultura, and in 2003, Jailhouse partnered up with Jamey Jasta's Stillborn Records for the release of another EP, Prophet of Hostility. The crew followed up in October 2004 on Stillborn with the album Wake the Demons. Full Blown Chaos spread their music among the metal crowd by playing over 200 shows in 2005 alone, and in doing so, frontman Ray Mazzola, bassist Mike "Lurk" Ruehle, and brothers Mike and Jeff Facci (guitar and drums, respectively) managed to score gigs with heavy-hitters like Chimaira, Slipknot, Superjoint Ritual, and God Forbid, among others. The band's relentless touring schedule eased up enough for them to enter the studio in February 2006 to record with producer/engineer Eric Rachel (Every Time I Die, A Life Once Lost). Full Blown Chaos' resulting sophomore effort, Within the Grasp of Titans, surfaced that summer in time for dates on Ozzfest. ~ Corey Apar, All Music Guide

Full Blown Chaos is a metalcore[1] band from Floral Park, Queens, New York[1]. According to the band, their whole direction "is to keep a wide range of music, not to necessarily pigeonhole ourselves into metal or hardcore"[citation needed]. They are well-respected in the New York scene, and are generally considered to be a part of the NYHC movement.

History

Full Blown Chaos self-released their first EP in 2001, with the lineup of Joe White (vocals), Mike Facci (guitar), Ed Conroy (bass), and Jeff Facci (drums), on Conroy's Jailhouse Records label. By the time they released their second EP, "Prophet Of Hostility", on Hatebreed frontman Jamey Jasta's Stillborn Records label, White was replaced by new vocalist Ray Mazzola.

On October 19, 2004, Full Blown Chaos released Wake the Demons and have since toured with such acts as Hatebreed[2], Terror, Sick Of It All, Madball, Himsa, Napalm Death & many others. "Wake The Demons" was described as "songs of inner-strength, backed with riffage that hug hairpin turns and a dynamite-triggering rhythm section."

In 2006, Full Blown Chaos released their follow up, "Within The Grasp Of Titans" with Eric Rachel on producer/engineer duties. The theme of songs of inner-strength was present on this album as well. They also joined the Ozzfest '06 tour during the summer.

On June 8, 2007, Full Blown Chaos announced a new deal with Ferret Music, and their first offering with the label, "Heavy Lies The Crown", was released August 21, 2007.

Full blown Chaos has played the New England Metal and Hardcore Festival in 2003, 2004, 2005, 2006, and 2008. They have also released several compilation albums with bands such as Agnostic Front, Dog Eat Dog and Son of Skam[2]
