Montreal, QC – January 16, 2020
THE ORDER OF CHAOS Unleash New Single ‘Breakpoint’ Off Upcoming Album “Maniacal”
“Maniacal” Out In 2020
Guitarist John Simon Fallon Announces Departure
The Order of Chaos is proud to present the new single ‘Breakpoint’, from their upcoming album entitled “Maniacal”. This is the band’s first release in over 2 years since the release of the “Night Terror” EP and their first full-length album “Apocalypse Moon” was released over 4 years ago.
“Maniacal” is powerful, fast, to the point, hard-hitting 10 song LP full of memorable choruses and catchy hooks.
The album was engineered by Diego Fernandez at Oracle Studios and Nathan Kidd at Method Music Productions in Edmonton, AB and was mixed by Nino Laurenne at Sonic Pump Studios in Helsinki, Finland (Wintersun, Amorphis, Sonata Arctica) along with mastering done by Svante Forsbäck at Chartmakers Mastering in Espoo, Finland (Rammstein, Volbeat).
This album is The Order of Chaos’ most mature, cohesive and dynamic songwriting effort to date and it represents the end of an era for the band as a founding member, and primary songwriter John Simon Fallon has sadly decided to step away from the group upon release of “Maniacal”.
Despite the unfortunate circumstances surrounding its release, the band is incredibly excited to share this album with everyone who has supported them through the past 15 years as well as to all their maniacal heavy metal fans across the globe.
The first single ‘Breakpoint’ from the album is accompanied by a lyric video developed by Dwi Nugraha of Genoicide Artwork, which can be viewed via MetalInjection HERE.
“Breakpoint” is one of the first ideas I wrote for this album, and it took me over a year to perfect. It was quite a manic process. Like all other songs on this album, it is not just a bunch of convenient riffs sandwiched together without thought or consideration. It is written from the heart. The aggressiveness of guitars are built on some of the frustrations I had not only in both my personal and professional life, and lyrically it explores many of the sentiments Amanda and I had, around the time I knew that it was time for me to hit pause on my tenure in TOOC. It ended up being the opening track on “Maniacal” and also one of the singles which makes me extremely happy because I’ve been in love with this song since the minute Amanda and I started demoing it. It’s different from anything we’ve ever released but it definitely still has the signature sound our fans have grown to love. Check it out and you’ll see what I mean.” says John Simon Fallon
“Maniacal” presents a unique and fresh sound and modern direction for The Order of Chaos and allows the band to end this era of chaos on a high note.
The album will be formally released in 2020, with several additional singles being released over the next few months.
Additional details regarding a formal label/distribution deal and future plans for the group will also be released at a later date.

“The Order of Chaos is one of the best bands ever to come out of Edmonton. Their show stacks up next to any international festival act” – Darryl Bowers, Boonstock Festival
“The Order of Chaos is the fucking warning that metal is still alive and that female vocalists are more than masturbation fodder. After the 3 years gone, they have not only returned, they have taken over. This is one of the best cds of 2015. You have been warned, this is the year of Chaos.” – Wicked Channel
“Their compositions are characterized by speed, highly skilled guitar playing that reflects on the solo and the lead parts of their music and of course melody that is combined with grooves and some thrash and melodic death metal riffs.” – Nick Parastatidis (Behind the Veil)

About:
With three albums and an EP under their belt, the band has the experience needed to unleash a convincing torrent of brand new material that will redefine genres and carve a path no heavy metal band has even attempted to produce. Meet Amanda Kiernan, a hurricane of live intensity and energy unmatched by her peers. From soaring melodic choruses to gritty, in your face thrash, she doesn’t let up for a moment. Her unique take on metal vocals and prowess as a hybrid singer has affirmed her place in metal history. Backed by the dueling guitar virtuosity of John Simon Fallon and John Saturley, and the brick wall rhythm section of Barrett Klesko and Jonathan Webster, this band is something that must truly be seen to be believed.

About:
Chaos and Order, two seemingly opposing forces that, when observed closely enough, work together subtly to create art in its most divine form. Enter The Order of Chaos, a highly regarded and well-respected heavy metal group from the rural northern wastelands of Alberta Canada. For the last 12 years, trudging through the snow covered Canadian landscape, and touring the vast expanses of Europe and China, this band has cut its teeth in the most demanding gigging environment this side of the equator. The band continues to bring their unique, fresh and well developed sound to a genre of music so saturated with sound-a-likes, 80s throwbacks and copy cats. After years of dedication to their art and hard work in the music industry, The Order of Chaos has cemented themselves as one of Canada’s premier metal artists. In 2013, the band was awarded Heavy Metal Recording of the year for their 2nd full length album entitled “Burn These Dreams”. Their extensive activities and efforts in the music industry has brought Edmonton into the heavy metal spotlight nationally and across the globe highlighting the diversity and quality found within the Edmonton arts community.
With three albums and an EP under their belt, the band has the experience needed to unleash a convincing torrent of brand new material that will redefine genres and carve a path no heavy metal band has even attempted to produce. Meet Amanda Kiernan, a hurricane of live intensity and energy unmatched by her peers. From soaring melodic choruses to gritty, in your face thrash she doesn’t let up for a moment. Her unique take on metal vocals and prowess as a hybrid singer has affirmed her place in metal history. Backed by the dueling guitar virtuosity of John Simon Fallon and John Saturley, and the brick wall rhythm section of Barrett Klesko and Tim Prevost, this band is something that must truly be seen to be believed.
In September of 2012, after signing a management and booking agency deal with Red Lion Music (Germany), The Order of Chaos made their first appearance overseas, stunning 2000+ fans at the Turock Open Air Festival and thousands more in clubs across central Europe. Just seven months later they returned to Europe with the Bay Area thrash legends “Vicious Rumors” supporting them on their Electric Punishment Tour, gaining many new fans and quickly securing a solid reputation as a phenomenal live act to behold. In 2015 the band continued to establish this foundation with a tour as direct support for Nuclear Blast Records’ up and coming “A-List” band “Battle Beast.” The visibility gained on this tour lead to the band being offered an all tour in China including a headlining appearance at China’s largest music festival (MIDI Festival) in front of 15,000+ fans.
With the future looking bright, the determination to continue to succeed, and the creative talent to put forth a fresh sound for heavy metal lovers everywhere, The Order of Chaos is primed for an assault on stages and headbangers everywhere with the release of their new EP “Night Terror” in 2018.
