Ever since then, the group founded by mastermind Jan Listing, has always strived to combine complex song structures with heaviness and catchy melodies. led by outstanding and wide-ranging lead vocals. Meticulously working on their energetic and virtuoso live-shows, their songs tend to exceed the limits of conventional lenghts and structures, leading to a new architecture of sound, inspired by classical music, pop and metal genres. Touring throughout clubs and having hit many stages in their home country during the last two years, CHAOSBAY recently had the opportunity to support the well-known German progressive/alternative-acts THE INTERSPHERE, as well as instrumental-progrockers FRAMES and US-stoner-legends CLUTCH. The line-up also consists of Joschka Bender (Fedora, ex-The Utopia Experiment), Patrick Bernath (Hot Chick Banged) and Matthias Heising (Heising, Fedora). The band released their fully self-made and eponymous EP in late 2012 and is about to finish a 40-minute coloss track: "Vasilisa", which will be their debut album for the summer 2014." chaosbay.com
