...Violent tribal drumming pounds with passion... layered Breakbeat/Trance rhythms pulsate... cutting noise loops; a hint of piano... a little anger never hurt anyone. Chant's sound is both driving and atmospheric...

Album Notes

CHANT: Beginnings CD and DVD COMBO - both for 10.97!!!

'Beginnings' is the independent, promotional CD/DVD that Bradley Bills originally made for experimentation and promotional purposes. Engineered by Jeffery D. Pinkus (Butthole Surfers) and limited to only 2000 copies - it is a unique look at CHANT's early years from 1999's underground drum tribe shows to Bradley's first ventures into solo songwriting.

'Beginnings' features 4 tracks of pounding tribal-electronic madness, as well as 2 rare demos of early songs 'Drag Me Down' and 'Eye On You' - which became Live favorites once refined! Matched with a promo DVD of first interviews, live performances, and free style drumming - this is a MUST for Industrial Fans who are just learning about CHANT as the Debut record is released.

CHANT: PRESS on Beginnings

- Edie Lusty - Austin Rank and Review - '03

...at times violent, tribal, trance, and punk... but always one mad scientist with a vision pulling it all together. WOW. If Dave Grohl ever really did a solo project: this is what he would listen to and steal from. Grohl would sell more albums, but could never be as real...
--Joe Lifto -- Austin Rank and Review - March '04

What a great c.d. to dance or spin to! This music will help you get in touch with your animalistic side, your dark side.

Fusion of tribal drums and industrial
author: Reznorb
The passion of the drumming in Beginnings is the most noteworthy thing on the CD. Excellent tribal sounds blended with minimal electronics and a good industrial beat make it a great buy but the small addition of vocals should have been greatly improved or thrown out all together. Thus not a 5.
