_“Stunning musical and, in particular, six-string intricacy… layers of lush, ringing,
occasionally grimy and often heavily effected guitars” _– **Guitar World**

_“Guitarist Michael Ciravolo assembled an all-star cast for his moody hard-hitting
album… Intense” _– **Rolling Stone  **

_“A rich sonic palette of unabashed gothic rock and post-punk romanticism, that 
reverberates through the varied inputs of a melange of musicians who are masters
of their craft”_ – **Post-Punk.com**

_“Hauntingly heavy and beautiful”_ – **LA Weekly**

Los Angeles-based alt rock / post-punk collective **[Beauty in Chaos](https://www.beautyinchaosmusic.com/)**
has released their new single[** ‘Orion’**](https://youtu.be/OX2evOJnkno), along
with a stunning otherwordly video, both of which feature the captivating [**Whitney Tai**](https://www.whitneytaimusic.com/).

Beauty in Chaos is the brainchild of guitarist **Michael Ciravolo. **The LA-based
New Orleans native is also President of **Schecter Guitar Research**. Until launching
BIC, Ciravolo was guitarist in **Human Drama** for 30 years and had also played 
live and recorded with **Michael Aston’s Gene Loves Jezebel** since 1998.

“Musically, Orion continues on the path set by **‘Stranger’**, the final track on**‘
The Storm Before The Calm’** album. Whitney’s lyrics and soaring voice were a perfect
match for this track and sets the tone beautifully for our next record,” says BIC
curator **Michael Ciravolo.**

In 2020, Beauty In Chaos released [**‘The Storm Before The Calm’ **](https://beautyinchaos.bandcamp.com/album/the-storm-before-the-calm)
and the remix-based **[‘Out Of Chaos Comes…’](https://www.beautyinchaosmusic.com/music-store)**
albums to critical acclaim. Recorded at Ciravolo’s **SAINTinLA Studio**, this LP
was produced by Grammy nominee **Michael Rozon**, known for his work with **Ministry**.

“When Beauty In Chaos reached out to me with the opportunity to co-write on a song
for their upcoming album, I was immediately hypnotized by the glacial, meandering
and crystalline use of guitars against this haunting and dark verbed-out atmosphere.
My mind went down the rabbit hole of the past two years that our globe has faced.‘
Orion’ is the ego of destruction,” says **Whitney Tai**.

“It’s about breaking free from the manipulators mind and severing the ties of deception.
A story of an a-type personality, “the hunter”, and how the roles narcissism and
exploitation torment the fears and strengths of the human psyche”.

Whitney Tai **crafts unique pop-rock anthems and melodic synthpop passages. With
trademark seductive compositions, the award-winning singer-songwriter’s hypnotic
voice, weaving seamlessly through genres.

“We try to make each of our videos different from the others, while being true to
the singer and the lyrics. ‘Orion’ is like nothing we have done before; it has a
very cinematic ‘big-screen’ look to it… and was really a lot of fun to make,” says**
Ciravolo**.

Since its inception, BIC has involved many music luminaries, including members of**
The Mission, The Cure, Ministry, Cheap Trick, The Offspring, Gene Loves Jezebel,
Marilyn Manson, Human Drama, Bauhaus, Nine Inch Nails, Van Halen, A Flock of Seagulls**,
