| Chevelle (Music) | comment |
Chevelle is a hard rock band from Grayslake, Illinois. Formed in 1995, the band consisted of three brothers: Pete Loeffler (guitar, vocals), Sam (drums), and Joe (bass). They're named after the Chevy Chevelle, a car that the brothers' dad liked.With their second album, Wonder What's Next and its breakthrough singles, "The Red" and "Send the Pain Below", Chevelle achieved great mainstream success. If you listen to any Alternative music station regularly, you've probably heard several of their songs. The band's style features heavy, down-tuned riffs, a driving rhythm section and Pete Loeffler's versatile singing, which can jump from a serene whisper to a shout in a moment's notice. Joe left the band in 2005 for disputed reasons and was replaced by Dean Bernardini, Pete and Sam's brother-in-law. In 2019, he left the band. | |

Misanthrope Supreme: The speaker of "Saferwaters" despises humanity so much he would like to just devolve and crawl back into the primordial ocean. | |

Darker and Edgier: They seem to have developed this in the mid-2010s. La Gárgola and The North Corridor present overall harder sounds than before, with Pete's vocals often being covered by instruments. | |

| Chevelle (Music) / int_4f4372e9 | comment |
Early-Installment Weirdness: Point #1 is much more raw than later works, in part due to Steve Albini's production. Pete's vocals are also different and the entire album has more of a debt to tool's sound than succeeding albums. | |

"Well Enough Alone" starts with an ax murder Metal Scream, and it can easily scare the crap out of an unprepared listener... especially if you're listening to Vena Sera in order for the first time, where this track comes right after the subdued ending of "Saferwaters". | |

Monster Clown: The video for "The Fad" has a gang of clowns kidnapping people and beating them up. Not entirely played straight, as the people were wrongdoers being taught a lesson and are freed afterwards. The "I Get It" video also has a clown in it. | |

Take That!: A couple songs from Vena Sera, such as "Brainiac" and "Well Enough Alone" are thought to be shots at ex-bassist Joe, who left (or was kicked out) under acrimonious conditions. "Wonder What's Next" from the eponymous album seems to be one to the entire music industry - or perhaps only Epic Records, who had recently signed them. | |

Lighter and Softer: "One Lonely Visitor" and "Bend the Bracket". NIRATIAS in its entirety was intended to return to more melodic material after The North Corridor. "One Ocean" and "Twinge" from La Gárgola as well, being mellow atmospheric songs reminiscent of Deftones at their softest, and "Endlessly" from the aforementioned NIRATIAS being a softer track reminiscent to art rock. | |

Surreal Music Video: The clip for "Vitamin R (Leading Us Along)" appears to be this, with the lead singer floating through bizarre landscapes, along with the band performing in a hospital room, and some other random imagery. If you know what the song is about, it all makes sense, since the video represents the hallucinations sometimes experienced by people addicted to Ritalin. | |
