CHAOSSTAR: Debut Album Out Now
February 23, 2009Slovenian experimental/progressive metallers CHAOSSTAR released their debut album, "Lifetime", on January 30 via On Parole Productions. The CD contains eight songs "full of pounding drums, different bass techniques, biting guitars with lightning fast solos and soaring vocals with screams, worthy of metal gods," according to a press release. "Guest musicians (keyboards, piano, harps, female back vocals and growls) are also featured on the album as the band wanted a different feel for some of the songs. The lyrics tell a story of predetermination, decisions and sacrifice. It bears a positive notion, that a person always has a choice. The battle between the good and the evil is also presented on the album through dueling instruments."
