As July leaves us, I am thrilled and blessed with the kind words about our new ‘Stranger’ video that we premiered a mere week ago! Both Torched Magazine and Jammerzine features also include some exclusive conversations with Ms. Kat Leon and myself. Give them both a read if you are interested in our creative dynamic with some insight into the song and video.

‘Michael Ciravolo and Producer Michael Rozon set a haunting and dark soundscape for ‘Stranger’, whereas Kat Leon’s vocals adds a subtle sweetness to the deep and personal lyrics where she tells the story of loosing oneself amidst personal tragedy’ .. Judy Lyon / Torched
‘BIC Curator Michael Ciravolo takes a mellow turn and really finds that special place between disarray and serenity. The chemistry between Michael and Kat is symbiotic in the fact that their talents within their craft complement each other on an almost spiritual level. The sustained guitar almost sings and answers Kat forming an interaction that is left to the imagination’ … Ryan Martin / Jammerzine
“Stranger” is a slowly unfurling, yet intense and atmospheric lament with the focus on Leon’s spellbinding vocals that go from reflective to passionate, with a mirroring rising-phoenix guitar line that adds a double poignancy to the lyrics. … Jen Dan / The Big Takeover

Our new album, ‘The Storm Before The Calm’ received high praises from Reflections Of Darkness and Echoes and Dust!

‘The Storm Before The Calm’ proves again that it is absolutely worth to undertake this particular challenge. Because a guitar driven solo project with different guest vocals surely is a real challenge. Usually one might expect something like this to result in music overloaded with technical plays while vocals fade to insignificance. BEAUTY IN CHAOS instead feels very different. With his unique guitar style Michael Ciravolo gives the songs exactly what they need - not less and not more. The music feels in perfect unity with the vocals and it is hard to believe, that they were written afterwards.’ … Eva Lhum / Refections Of Darkness
‘Sunny summer heat may be upon us, but for fans of goth and dark/cold wave, the weather was never more autumnal: The Storm Before the Calm, the latest album from Beauty In Chaos, is their strongest and most consistent to date, and it’s cool all over’ … Valerie Polichar / Echoes and Dust
