New group KHAOS (Khaøs) is a manifestation of a flavor of global love and the collaboration of musicians across continents.

Khaøs represents one of those musical projects made possible with the advent of modern technology these days – four people in four cities come together to make one album, well in this case, the EP “Rising”.

If you’re familiar with the talented vocalist from the great melodic hard rockers Outloud –  Chandler Mogel – then you know he’s a rising star in the Hard Rock business.

Due to his travels abroad, especially Greece and rest of Europe he had a chance to mark down this particular project with other bandmates such as Mark Rossi (Tribal), Nic Angileri (Jorn) and Trevor Franklin (Elis).

To give fans a taste of what is to come from the band in 2013, we have this interesting sneak peak from this new act blending Hard Rock with modern touches.

Honestly just the thought of Mogel leading vocals give you a reason to check out these tunes and that’s why it piqued my interest.

We have five tracks alongside a couple radio edits of the same songs. As described earlier the band’s sound is modern Hard Rock, no bull no frills just straight up Hard Rock with tight production and solid backbone of drums and bass.

Beginning here you notice a more cerebral approach to each song, less commercial stuff which is something Chandler Mogel has been more associated with in Outloud and his previous band Talon, and more straight head rocker tunes that let’s his voice take hold and carry the vocals further.

“Rising” starts up with a well rounded vibe and the first two tunes “Distress Signal” and “Hated” give a good representation of the group’s style, sonically modern with their own European blend of Hard Rock with classic influences.

The slower number “Mind Violence” has a tight explosive rhythm section which later gives way to the more straight head groove of “Perfect Future”.

Looks like we’re looking at 2013 for a complete full Khaøs album.

As mentioned earlier they have a strong vocalist and with solid musicians like Rossi for instance they are presenting a little deviation from the normal European sound that is typical of Hard Rock bands.

“Rising” is a nice EP from a really interesting band that hopefully will turn into a more complete picture further down the line.

Good Stuff.
