COMMENTS

Kings Of Chaos is a hard rock supergroup with international membership featuring a core line-up of drummer Matt Sorum, bassist Duff McKagan, and guitarist Gilby Clarke (all then formerly of Guns 'N' Roses), as well as revolving appearances from members of Bon Jovi, Def Leppard, Deep Purple, Aerosmith, and more. The group plays songs from all of these bands, and other classic rock covers. To date, they have only recorded and released two songs, 'Never Before', on the Deep Purple tribute 'Re-Machined: A Tribute To Deep Purple's Machine Head', and original song 'Judgement Day'.

The band was formerly known as the 'Rock N Roll All-Stars', which had a short tour of South America in 2012.

The band is not meant to have a permanent line-up, and has therefore had its fair share of personnel changes. At its core, playing every show with both the 'Kings Of Chaos' and 'Rock N Roll All-Stars', were the former Guns 'N' Roses members, Matt Sorum, Duff McKagan, and Gilby Clarke. This changed in December 2016 when Kings Of Chaos played its first show without McKagan and Clarke. In August 2026, Bon Jovi's former and current guitarists, Richie Sambora and Phil X, played with the supergroup.

Corey Taylor (Slipknot) has done guest appearances and performed lead vocals with the group.

Author's note: Although Corey is listed on the Wikipedia page as a 'past member', the group can't really be considered a side-project of his as it's really just guest appearances he's done.
