Were all the parts new ? sprocket, chain and chainring. A worn sprocket and a new chain can make a similar sound to the one you described.
I've also had a few noise issues with 1/8 chains and 3/32 sprockets but it shouldn't be that bad.
Thanks. Everything brand new and 1/8".
Hmm odd, how tight are you running the chain ? Does it get worse when your out of the saddle ?
