Chaos Magic - To Release Special Covers EP
Chilean band Chaos Magic, fronted by vocalist Caterina Nix, are pleased to announce the release of Desert Rose, a very special EP, featuring covers of songs by Sting, Bruce Dickinson, Faith No More, and Duran Duran. Listen to the title track, featuring Zaher Zorgati of Myrath and drummer Mike Terrana, below.
Track by track commentary from Caterina Nix:
1. "Desert Rose" feat. Zaher Zorgati of Myrath and Mike Terrana (originally recorded by Sting)
"I have always been mesmerized by this song, I love the vibe and the combination of styles. It was so well constructed by Sting and I have been thinking for years that a rock/metal version would sound so ideal. When I was asked to do this EP, it was my first choice. But it needed Zaher's voice. For me, there was no one else! It wouldn't have been complete without his beautiful performance. In addition, drummer extraordinaire Mike Terrana granted his talent and magic touch to this song, which turned out to be a dream come true for me!"
2. "Accident Of Birth" (originally recorded by Bruce Dickinson)
"When I started listening to metal music, one of the singers I admired the most was Bruce Dickinson. I would sing along to Iron Maiden's tunes and just try to learn and internalize his technique and interpretation. The record "Accident of Birth" also marks a particular stage in my life that I hold very dear. I wanted to take this song and just make it my own as a tribute to the years the record accompanied me."
3. "Ashes To Ashes" (originally recorded by Faith No More)
"This song is so timeless and attractive, there's a special enchantment about it that never dies. In addition, Mike Patton is another one of my favorite singers ever. The whole concept of Faith No More is eclectic, irreverent yet technically impeccable. We made a change of rhythm to the iconic riff, that made sense to me, to give it a personal modern twist. Hope I'm giving it justice."
4. "Ordinary World" (originally recorded by Duran Duran)
"I'm sure many of us hold one or many of Duran Duran's songs in a special place in our hearts...I know I do. We chose this song knowing it has been covered before, but we made a very special symphonic metal version, combining vulnerability and power."

Well what a bad choise, there are metalheads, if you read old Nik reviev about true metal band what wears cool true metal band t shirts and plays good music, it means they listens good music. She is metal singer as 90% of female fronted bands are actually, plays metal and free time listens other music. Here only one good song and not his best btw, well she can please me other way ... gonna listen Bruce cover, rest I doubt so. bad song list.

I praised the last effort because of the work and passion she put into Chaos Magic, it wasn't a bad album either actually, I will apply the same to this. Shure, Tolkki was a big starting force, but at this point I think we can say Chaos Magic is Caterina, she deserves that. Would love to hear her do some songs from Chemical Wedding though, think that would suite her perfectly 🤘
