Karl Jenkins This is a top 5 thrash metal album of the 21st century. There is an amazing groove between the drumming and the riffs that I haven't heard elsewhere. I love the refreshed artwork on the reissue! Favorite track: Merchant Of Death.

Torn 02:45
Scarred by the lines drawn Their fate’s been sealed Intruders, long gone Wounds are still unhealed Pollute their tradition Infect their each thought Now hand them the ammunition To carry out your plot Racial Mutilation Territorial Annihilation Communal Extermination Hostility swallows the nation Death Trains bearing corpses Speed on bloodied Rails Misery surrounds us And Disarray prevails Pollute their tradition Infect their each thought Now hand them ammunition And carry out your plot Racial Mutilation Territorial Annihilation Communal Extermination Hostility swallows the nation

The Game 03:00
Graveyard for your bleeding mind The place where dreams are left behind The land where sanity's for sale And here the filthy rich they never fail Pampered pests crawl on the throne Days of courage so long gone Power hungry, sells their pride And the rightful, are denied Game for the few, Where the game plays you Slaves for the dirty deed Pillage while your people bleed Powered by unending greed Marches on this wretched breed Game for the few, Where the game plays you
4.
War Crime 03:04
Cornered in a god forsaken room I stare at these walls in vain Awaiting my imminent doom Amidst this flood tide of pain I'll be forced to witness You behead another one of us Hear me scream, you wont see me cry As you drive that rod into my eyes Prisoners of War From near and far Waiting for the end Waiting for the end Expend your bloody hate Behind these closed doors I am for my state What you are for yours Crescendo of the echoes Transform to a silhouette of fear The right of life denied I feel the end is near Prisoners of War From Near and Far Waiting for the end Waiting for the end
5.
Saint 03:42
Blessings from a blood stained hand Cry of the dead in the prayers he chant Stench of sorrow fills the sacred place Fake divinity masks the devil's face Widow's curse her children's screams Another one for his selfish deeds Cause of countless broken dreams In their grief this demon feeds LUST GREED WRATH Does it make you bigger than god?? Stroll down wretched path Unleashing endless wicked wrath drowning in a sea of sin Setting free, the demon within LUST GREED WRATH Does it make you bigger than God! Pure evil signs of decadence Unholy wrath of arrogance Unspoken pain and misery His ecstasy

Wakes up to the smell of blood The mother, widow proud to be one Answering the call of dead To celebrate the death of her son Gunshot ridden lullabies For a better afterlife It's the infant's destiny In a country torn by strife Innocence slayed on the streets Pay homage to your own beliefs Born and raised amidst deceits Blinded from the sea of grief Delusive sight of dignity Slaughtered in the name of god Praising damned insanity Blame it on your mighty lord I dream of God's kingdom As I take my last breath Predatory martyrdom As I heed to the gods of death
7.
Blacklash 02:50
I'll die not for your sins but mine Shadow your judgment with holy wine Find Solace and salvation in pain Give me the chance I'll do it again I am they lord I'll lay my vengeance upon thee Now for your sins, thou shall bleed From these bloodied shackles you'll all be freed With all your lives, you'll pay the price For this is the last time the son will rise I am thy lord I'll lay my vengeance upon thee
8.
Rivers of Blood, Divides the land Into shades of green and saffron Genocide under the head's command Sow blood seeds of religion Either you're dead or you're one of us That's what the lawmaker said Climb upon the hill of corpses With the unborn on your spearhead Three days of slaughter Three days of slaughter Three days of slaughter Endowed by the merchant of death Stench of Burning Flesh seeps through Fueling their urge to kill Stringed puppets dancing To their master's deadly will Kill Three days of Slaughter Three days of slaughter Three days of slaughter Endowed by the merchant of death
9.
Don't turn your head, the other way Open your eyes and I'm sure you'll see Your suffering, it ends today Forget the pain, I'll set you free As tears of joy, rolls down your face I hear a cry outside Final moment, of your disgrace In a needle to the other side They'll never forget it They'll never deny it They'll never regret it Prescription for your exit They pretend to mourn your death With their fake unconvincing tears I'll guide you to, your last breath This is the end of all your fears They'll never forget it They'll never deny it They'll never regret it Prescription for your exit
10.
Fight for a free home land Bleed for equality Die to see your flag stand above all inequity Kill or get killed for the greater cause Savor blood spilled by the tigers' claws Art of assassination Only known solution Highest Retribution or its Cyanide Salvation Art of assassination Hope of liberation Highest Retribution or its Cyanide Salvation Destroy these bloody root rots, Rip em all apart Thrust that direful dead spot, Without an after thought Human wave blood bath, countless mutilation Deface each foe in your path, through brute decapitation Art of assassination Only known solution Highest Retribution or its Cyanide Salvation Art of assassination Hope of liberation Highest Retribution or its Cyanide Salvation
11.
The wall of will casts a shadow on you Your pride gives way for pain Your anguished scream slices through I'm proud of being insane Your blood on my fist, Makes it fade away Memories evolve, Feasting upon your swollen dismay The raging storm dissolves From your misery I'm saving you Forever to be forgotten Rid your mind of those tales untrue And all that's dead and rotten The moment is gone, the feeling lives on Replaying itself again For years to come and those remain The scars of the deed remain

about

"Chaos, a four piece band from Kerala, India have been around since 2005 and through their debut album Violent Redemption they bring out the best of old school thrash metal.

With bone crushing riffs and aggressive drumming they have created a power packed album. They are fast and ferocious with unmatched consistency right from the beginning till the very end. There have been a few good bands coming from the Southern part of India and Chaos have certainly made a mark with their debut offering. Right after the intro Ungodly Hour you are exposed to this band’s brilliant musical abilities in the form of Torn and with that a brutally pleasant trip into the good old thrash metal massacre begins. The band has also released a video for their heavyweight Game, and rightfully so to showcase their fierce sound. With tracks like War Crime and Saint you have no choice but to accept the invitation into this band’s very own private hell, the kind which won’t disappoint. Vocalist JK’s mix of powerful and high pitched screams add a perfect kind of fuel to the already musically ignited fire which rages on with every track. The band’s creative diversity and variation is well heard on Heaven’s Gate which combines heavy pounding with a slow and haunted melody. Guitarist Nikhil keeps it tight and is very well supported by Vishnu and Rohith on bass and drums respectively. Their collective energy bursts out mercilessly and keeps building up on tracks like Merchant of Death, Self Deliverance and Cyanide Solution. It’s nothing but pure mayhem till the end as the album finishes with a devastating title track Violent Redemption, completing a power packed debut offering indeed. " - The Rocktologist

"In 2005, CHAOS began their Thrash Metal journey in India. CHAOS has for every bit of exposure they have had. With an inconsistent line-up and a lack of opportunities to perform, the band has really been in tight quarters in releasing music. However, “Violent Redemption” the band’s debut album was released in 2014 and has received high ratings from fans and critics alike. “Violent Redemption” is described as “fast and frenetic with the aggression not compromising the inspired quality of the musicianship that seeps out of every track.” CHAOS is influenced by bands such as SLAYER, KREATOR, PANTERA, and TESTAMENT, among other big name Metal bands. The band has also been awarded two awards: Radio City Freedom Awards - Best Metal Band, Jury Choice and Radio City Freedom Awards - Best Metal Band, Popular Choice, among being nominated for the VH1 Sound Nation Awards - Best Metal Act and Jack Daniel’s Annual Rock Awards 2013 - Best Metal Band.

"Violent Redemption” is a badass debut Thrash Metal. The production, the musicianship, and the creativity are incredible. Thrash Metal from India is legit and so is CHAOS. I am not the biggest fan of Thrash, in fact, for the most part I hate it, but this is the real deal. Check it out, buy it, love it, and make it apart of your collection." - Metal Temple
