SACRED CHAO
A short history of the German band SACRED
CHAO is rooted in the history of the band LIVING DEATH. After
the release of the album LIVING DEATH - Worlds Neuroses in 1989,
Thorsten / Toto / Bergmann, Fred and Atomic Steif (ex - VIOLENT
FORCE) left the band. They created a new band called L.D., and
the remaining members of LIVING DEATH (the brothers Reiner and
Dieter Kelch) revived the group with three new musicians. It
turned out a somewhat strange situation, the press could not
determine which of the bands is the real successor to LIVING
DEATH and confusion arose. After this confusion, L.D. renamed
SACRED CHAO (by the name of one of the songs LIVING DEATH) and
invited bassist Lemmy (ex - VIOLENT FORCE) released the
self-titled mini-album on Aaarrg Records. Musically, the guys
moved away from the thrash sound of LIVING DEATH and turned
their attention to a more melodic material in the spirit of
bands like RAGE, SCANNER ... However, the musicians did not get
it right and the band soon disintegrated. Lemmy went to the gang
JAMHEADS, Atomic Steif moved to HOLY MOSES, then to SODOM, the
rest did not show any creative activity and sank into obscurity.
