On their seventh studio album, the University of Maryland Faux Paz aim to capture the raw emotion that has defined their unique sound for over two decades. Through intricate arrangements and dynamic performances, Chaos explores a wide spectrum of emotions from rage and desperation to hope and vulnerability. Several of Faux’s most powerful selections are on display, including pieces from the 2013 ICCAs and the entirety of their award-winning 2014 ICCA set. This is also their first album to be produced in partnership with The Vocal Company; launching Faux Paz into the next level of recorded a cappella.

"Lithium", Faux Paz's, ninth studio album marks some huge stepping stones for Faux Paz. This album features the group's 2016 3rd Place winning ICCA Set and 2017 1st Place winning BOSS Set, along with 5 other songs, for a total of 12 tracks the group spent 1.5 years recording, and pouring their blood, sweat, and tears into. Lithium is also being released as Faux Paz enters into its 25th Anniversary year, showing what a long way the group has come in its years of existence. Each song on this album explores an innately dichotomous conflict that is experienced in the human condition. Faux Paz hopes that their album can be the medicine to manage to the bipolar world around us. They hope that this album can be the catalyst for one’s major change. Finally, they hope that our album can comfort those who feel lost, and give them something to truly connect to. "Lithium" includes Faux Paz's first CARA award-winning song (Where Are Ü Now), which was also featured on the compilation album, Sing 13: Superstition, by the Contemporary A Cappella Society.
