CHUGANAUT is an unstoppable heavy sound machine on a mission.
Alternative Rock with a twist of Metal, an explosive mix of spontaneity, monstrous musicianship and four great characteristic personalities: therein lies the heart and soul of Chuganaut.
The strength between the members of Chuganaut is seriously seen in the high energy rampage of their live gigs. With every gig, Chuganaut’s stage performance gets stronger and stronger; the blood, sweat and screams have been worth all the hard work!
With the release of various singles, an EP ‘Wolf’, music videos, and the debut album ‘11:11 One’, along with subsequent tours nationwide and overseas ventures, Chuganaut has evolved in stage performance, lyrical and rhythmical stance, and their fan base has grown and growled along with them.
