Casey Chaos (born Karim Chmielinski; October 9, 1969) is an American singer/songwriter, musician, and artist.
Chaos's music has encompassed a number of styles over the years, including hardcore punk, death rock, metal. He is the songwriter and vocalist of the band Amen.
Chmielinski lived in Eau Gallie, Florida during his adolescence. After seeing Black Flag for the first time, Chmielinski's life was forever changed. He started recording songs for his first hardcore band Casey and the Skate Punx, the name of which was later changed to Disorderly Conduct. Disorderly Conduct released one album - "Amen" - and were featured on various contemporary compilations, both on cassette and vinyl.
As Disorderly Conduct began negotiating with Metal Blade Records for the release of their new recording 'Atrocity', Chaos and band guitarist Duke Decter moved to California and changed the name of the band to the title of their first album, Amen. Upon meeting Rikk Agnew (Adolescents, D.I., Christian Death), Amen was briefly put into hibernation while the pair began a musical collaboration which led to Chaos playing bass for a short tour with the reunited original Christian Death. Afterwards, Chaos returned to Amen and recorded 'Slave' a full length independent album which led to a record deal with Roadrunner Records and the 1999 official debut release of Amen's self-titled album 'Amen.' As the notorious actions of Casey Chaos and his band grew during the subsequent tour, Roadrunner released the band of their contract and they were swiftly picked up by Virgin Records. Casey Chaos and band found a home at Virgin Records and the label strongly pushed and promoted the band which led to the release of their 2nd album, the highly successful 2001 'We Have Come For Your Parents' album, also produced by Ross Robinson,
