Notable_instruments =Kaos Rising is a
death metal /thrash metal band fromChicago, Illinois . Formed in late 1999, they soon recorded their first demo, entitled "Wiped Away". This demo attracted the attention of California's Jet Speed Records, and in the winter of 2001, they recorded their first full-length album, "Welcome To The Violence", which was released in 2002/2003. Following this release, they opened for many major bands such asFear Factory , Lamb of God,Shadows Fall ,Hatebreed , and others. After much touring in 2004, they recorded their second album, "Cold Years To Come", which was released in October/November 2005 by Break The Surface Music. Whereas "Welcome To The Violence" came across as a more experimental album, with few songs that could be considered extremely fast, "Cold Years To Come" has a much faster, old-school thrash feel to it, and certainly contains a higher degree of musical quality. According to theirMySpace they broke up sometime in early 2006.

Soulfly , andDying Fetus , although none of these are exact soundalikes.Members
