Chaos Born is the fifth full-length album by the Finnish melodic black metal band Catamenia. It was released on May 26, 2003, through Massacre Records.

Reception

The album received a very good review, 9 out of 10, from Metal.de,[1] compared to 7 out of 10 from Rock Hard.[2]

Powermetal.de [de] stated that the music was "yet another iteration of their tried-and-tested formula", but also that "the Finns consistently demonstrate that they know how to deliver solid melodic black metal".[3] Norway's Scream Magazine gave a rating of 4 out of 6, stating that the predictability of the music made Chaos Born into a "dust collector".[4] Another Norwegian magazine Exact gave the same score, stating that the band trod along a beaten path, making predictable music.[5]

In Finland, Imperiumi [fi] posted two reviews of Chaos Born; one rating it as 6 out of 10 and the other 9. The more negative reviewer was admittedly "not a fan of black metal", whereas the positive reviewer praised Catamenia for making "the soundscape incomprehensibly enchanting" and having good lyrics. "As a final note, let me say that the band's unfounded critics could keep their mouths shut with this album or just go to hell", the review ended.[6]
