U.S. Chaos are an United States hardcore punk band from New Jersey, formed in early 1981.
Formed from the remainders of late 1970s punk rock group The Radicals, U.S. Chaos created one of the first legitimate streetpunk or Oi! style bands in The United States. The band was originally based in Passaic and Bergen counties, New Jersey. U.S. Chaos is the one of many punk bands of their time to author, produce, record as well as publish music with an ironic overzealous pro-American stance, both in lyrical content as well as attitude.
Their first release was "We've Got The Weapons". This vinyl EP is highly collectible and has been priced in the range of $500.00 at the highest time of an offer, during the 1990s, as per early [Ebay] and Bleeker Bobs record store in New York City.
They are considered extremely controversial with a non-politicaly correct approach for their time in the early 1980s. They loved to taunt and harass their audiences, into absolute destructive madness. They often employed bodyguards with loaded sidearms. Audiences appeared in the thousands, at many venues. Most historic being The Ritz with The Exploited and in 1983 at The Showplace in Dover, NJ with Iron Cross several times in Washington DC.
U.S. Chaos has played constantly with constituent groups, at venues that hosted legendary performances.
