BIC BLOG 8/15/20

It’s been a week of juggling for sure! TOS2020 pre-sale launch, press for our ‘The Storm Before The Calm’, and busy busy with compiling all things needed for our Halloween remix record release! Oh , and my friends from Silence In The Snow are in town recording in SAINTinLA with Michael Rozon, so I have been popping in to add some guitar texture bits here and there. I need more coffee and more hours in a day!!!

First to the BIC stuff. I had a nice sit down talk with Ms. Anabel DFLux for this feature in Rock Revolt Magazine. We talk about the new album, our ‘Stranger’ video, and of course, TOS2020.

Our album also got some kind words and insight from Dan Franklin and his Dancing-About-Architecture blog.

“A new album from Beauty in Chaos is always something which generates a lot of excitement. There are not many bands who manage to marry alt-rock swagger, post-punk inventiveness, brooding, gothic overtones and old school rock and roll so effortlessly, certainly none which do so without falling for the usual cliches. And if Michael Ciravolo knows just how to juggle all of these sonic elements to create music with real elegance and eloquence, poise and power, and he does, the real icing on the cake is the roll call of musical friends which he invites along to juggle with him.” …Dan Franklin

The very amazing Ryan Martin and JammerDirect put together a ‘supercut edition’ of the documentary ‘Behind The Beauty - Remixing The Chaos’. Please watch it HERE or on Amazon Fire TV or Roku. It contains some additional footage and features, and was co-directed by our youngest daughter Sophia!

If I am giving a shout out to one daughter, I can’t skip our oldest, Nicole, who has become quite popular on TikTok with her ‘Connie’ character. Thanks to Jammerzine for doing this feature on her HERE!

Thankfully the word about the amazing ReMission International’s TOS2020 project is getting out! It is certainly surreal to be involved with these amazing artists! SiriusXM’s Darkwave host Matt Sebastian’s SLICING UP EYEBALLS gives it a nice shout out HERE.

With ALL of the proceeds going to Covid-19 Charities, in this age of ‘streaming’, it is so very important that everyone PLEASE do their part and at least purchase the Digital Single. It is seriously less than what you pay for a Starbucks coffee.

The TOS2020 Digital Bundle contains all four (4) mixes AND the remastered version of the original MISSION classic. Also, it is possible to order the digital download of the individual mixes, too. Release date for the digital versions is August 28th and can be Pre-Ordered HERE.

For USA and CANADA - the super cool gold Gold Vinyl, CDs, Tee Shirts and ‘bundles’ can be Pre-Ordered HERE.

Outside of USA/Canada - please pre-order HERE.

Here are some words from Wayne on TOS2020. Also, click the links for a full list of Artists involved and all the artists chosen Charities.
