I've always liked this band from the songs I've heard on the radio ("Send the Pain Below", "Red", and "Jars"). But I hadn't heard an entire album by them until I just got this.
I missed out on a great band! It's like Staind and Tool had the sex, and a beautiful rock baby named Chevelle came out.
Give these guys a chance beyond just their normal radio hits. At least the first album I can vouch for. You won't regret it if you like that bass-y, progressive, melodic with an edge; hard to describe Tool sound.

And they're a really good live band. I wasn't a fan until I saw them live. They are one of those bands that sound studio good in person.
I'm not a huge Motorhead fan, but damn shame losing one of the last "Rock Stars". Dude chain-smoked and drank whiskey until the day he died. 70 years of being badass. You had a good run, dude.

Saw Chevelle a few years back doing a USO tour. They sound great in concert.

For sure. I am a big fan of them. If you like Wonder What's Next, then there are a lot of other records by them you need to also check out. They've remained very solid and true to their sound over the years. Plus there is a new album currently in the works for this spring, the last I heard.
I am currently hooked on a album I got this Xmas by another band I really like a lot and miss called Fear Before The March of Flames, the album entitled Fear Before and it was their last release. These guys are hard to explain, but they were rooted in hardcore punk, yet they are heavily influenced by progressive rock, it is sometimes heavy and sometimes melodic. This album was their most tame release.

I'm really digging Aesthesis by Dead Letter Circus right now, which is another album I recently got this holiday. I think it might be my favorite album from them. There is a pinch of melancholy in this one that contrasts and adds an interesting component to their sort-of spacey, almost bouncy style of music. I'm really hooked on this right now, and I feel like more people need to know about this band.
