Considering that this Brooklyn-based metal triad is comprised of adolescents, Unlocking the Truth's 2016 official debut record is an admirable effort on the boys' part. Sporting promise, Chaos simply marks a sign that this band will certainly do a lot better later down the road, but as it is now, there exist quite a few rough edges that are on display here. Competent as the instrumentation may be, the way that it's played out strikes me as too familiar, and the vocals provided by lead guitarist Malcolm Brickhouse are for the most part patchy. Still and all, going back to what I already mentioned before, Unlocking the Truth are relatively young in the scene and can improve upon the formula they're working with as they get older.
