In 1977, together with Steve Sylvester, he founded Death SS, the historic Italian rock group known for its unique fusion of rock, horror theater and the occult.
Paul Chain Violet Theatre made its debut in 1984 with the legendary Detaching from Satan EP.The EP was Chain’s official manifest of his ideological about-face, and the first evidence of the artist’s continuous musical evolution.
The name Paul Chain Violet Theatre, used for their first four albums, became simply Paul Chain in 1987; and in 1998 Chain began the side projects Paul Chain Experimental Information and Paul Chain The Improvisor. The first represented particular musical experiments and collaborations, the second was a live act that showed Chain’s passion for improvisation.
This renewed technical and expressive freedom solidified in 1994 with the semi-electronic Dies Irae; but it was with 1995’s Alkahest that Chain gathered the greatest consensus of his career. It was solid and compact doom, and boasts the participation of Cathedral’s Lee Dorrian.
In the years that follow, Chain’s growing international fame allowed him to produce Semefo/Humus (Mexico) and to collaborate with Scott ‘Wino’ Weinrich (Obsessed, Saint Vitus) on two tracks for 2003’s Unreleased Volume 2.
