Background

Material for the album was written shortly after the completion of their previous studio album Violence Unimagined in 2021.[1] Recording sessions took place in Rutan's Mana Studio in Florida and were described as "smoother than ever". The album was named by drummer Paul Mazurkiewicz, who felt it was an appropriate representation of the band. To bassist Alex Webster, the record feels like a "continuation of Violence Unimagined".[2] Guitarist Rob Barrett opined that their songwriting skills had evolved in a way that every song "paves its own path", whether it is "straightforward", "technical" or a "mix of both". Webster added that there was no "conscious effort" to create a technical record, but if it ended up being that, it would have just been a "natural result".[3] Erik Rutan, producing his sixth album for the band, tried to "push the envelope" and "explore new territory" this time around.[4]

Critical reception

To Bree Halmstad of MetalSucks, the album was further proof that the band was on "top of the death metal food chain after 35 years," with an album that encapsulates a "sort of variety that keeps the listener engaged".[6] Omne Metallum at Metal Storm thought that Chaos Horrific "breathes life into the corpse once more" and "merits any inclusion" on year-end lists and a high ranking within the band's discography alike.[5] Metal.de's Oliver Di Iorio opined that the record was yet another "standard work" where no song really "stands out".[1]
