Iconic alt-rock / post-punk supergroup Beauty In Chaos presents ‘Outtasight Outtamind’ featuring Leo Luganskiy, the second single from their fifth studio album ‘Quiet Place’.
Exploring the pain of losing someone, feeling trapped in a repetitive cycle of emotional attachment, and struggling to let go of what once was, this song captures the tension between wanting closure and accepting that some connections are never meant to last, ultimately finding silence in the aftermath.
Arriving exactly eight years after releasing their debut record ‘Finding Beauty In Chaos’, its timing marks a full-circle moment for the LA-based project, bringing together the spirit of its beginnings with eight years of musical exploration, unlikely collaborations, and an ever-expanding family of artists.
“After having Leo featured on ‘Echoes And The Angels’ from 2024’s album ‘Dancing With Angels’, I was excited when he agreed to return on this new album,” says BIC curator Michael Ciravolo.
“Leo and I sat together playing with guitars to create the genesis of this song, which might just be a BIC first! This song certainly begins as an ‘outlier’ on the album, but then becomes pure BIC when the chorus hits. It’s catchy as hell, but with a dash of chaos.”
Leo Luganskiy reveals the meaning behind his words ““Isn’t it true that love and misery always hit the spot? And it happens to be an endless well of inspiration, things left unspoken are the ones keeping you entangled in a love story that ended years ago, but is it really over if you still think of what could’ve been if we haven’t had a misunderstanding we had? What could’ve happened if u listened to what the other person has to say instead of deciding to severe the connection completely to avoid “hearing” anything at all? I’m directly quoting Lifehouse’s ballad masterpiece phrase, which perfectly describes the patterns of irreversible heartbreak – it’s indeed a ‘Sick Cycle Carousel’”
Produced by Grammy-nominated producer Michael Rozon (Ministry, Jarboe, Wayne Hussey, The Melvins), ‘Quiet Place’ is a ten-track collection showcasing the latest from Beauty In Chaos. Released September 28th via LA-based 33.3 Music Collective with cover artwork by Maren Platzhoff, the album brings together familiar voices and new collaborators while continuing the project’s distinctive blend of dark rock, atmospheric textures, powerful guitars, and richly layered songwriting.
Ciravolo describes the video, which is directed by Industrialism Films’ Vicente Cordero, as “a visual polar-opposite of its predecessor, ‘Home’, which is always part of my plan. It certainly brings some retro MTV era vibes injected with the all too familiar love story.”
That first single, featuring Ashton Nyte of famed South African goth rockers The Awakening, also marked eight years since BIC’s first single ‘Storm’, a fitting reunion for a song about connection and belonging. That video too also involved Cordero.
This double vinyl release includes many returning BIC alumni, including Cinthya Hussey (with her Mission main-man husband Wayne Hussey), Whitney Tai, Julian Shah-Tayler, Betsy Martin, Leo Luganskiy, and Kommunity FK’s Patrik Mata. Two new voices join the BIC family – Nick Schultz, formerly with The Faces Of Sarah, and Strangelove’s Brent Meyer. The Deluxe CD also includes three cover renditions, with Michael Ciravolo contributing vocals.
LA-based guitarist Michael Ciravolo (formerly of Human Drama and Gene Loves Jezebel and current President of Schecter Guitars) launched Beauty In Chaos in 2018. Over the years, BIC has involved members of The Mission, The Cure, Ministry, Cheap Trick, The Offspring, Gene Loves Jezebel, Marilyn Manson, Human Drama, Bauhaus, Nine Inch Nails, Van Halen, A Flock of Seagulls and dUg Pinnick, ICE-T, Rolan Bolan and Zakk Wylde, among other luminaries.
What’s comes next? Michael Ciravolo shares, “We are in the midst of compiling remixes for our ‘re-envision’ release that is our now standard follow-up to our studio albums. As with ‘Signs In The Heavens…’, this next one (planned for February 2027) will have a couple of bonus tracks. We are certainly not done with ‘Quiet Place’ since we will have one, if not two additional videos from it”.
‘Quiet Place’ is available in a 100-copy Limited Edition package, which includes a beautiful 180g double vinyl pressed on Ocean Blue Glitter. Each of the 100 copies are hand-numbered and include an eight-page lyric booklet, a Special CD, and a set of three BIC guitar picks. As with all BIC albums, the full digital version is included and sent for immediate download!
A ‘Goth Black’ double vinyl, a Deluxe 13 song CD, and a digital version are available at the BIC Store. While Beauty In Chaos believes in enjoying music in a physical format, ‘Quiet Place’ can also be heard on all streaming platforms, including Apple Music, Spotify and Bandcamp.
