## Key points

- Kings of Chaos united well-known rock musicians.
- The group’s first tour ended after four shows.
- 32 musicians joined across 12 years, but only two songs were released.

## Summary

Kings of Chaos, a rotating supergroup of established rock musicians, brought together stars from bands including Guns N’ Roses, Kiss and Def Leppard. The project showed how difficult it can be to coordinate a large group of artists, and its unstable line-up and troubled first tour limited its impact.

Formed in 2012 as Rock ‘N’ Roll All-Stars, the group began with 11 members; 32 musicians have been involved over the following 12 years, some appearing only once. Their first South American tour was planned for ten days but ended after four shows amid disputes over payment and poor organisation. They have officially released only two songs, including a Deep Purple cover, despite the musicians’ experience.
