All Day, the band gained a growing following in the rock clubs of New York, Chicago, and Boston. 1997: Set You Free For its next album, the band enlisted Nicolas Vernhes and his Rare Book Room studio in Williamsburg, Brooklyn to record brand new material. The band first recorded a single, "It's Alright, You're Okay", in the studio and a few months later booked Vernhes for 10 days. Within those ten days, the band tracked and mixed 16 songs. This new set of material found the band incorporating various Britpop influences, horns, Hammond organ, and thicker sonics into its sound. But the band also pared some pieces back to an almost minimalist rock aesthetic to push Leo's increasingly dark, personal lyrics to the fore. At the other end of the spectrum, Norborg contributed lead vocals to his compositions "The Unthinkable Is True," "Oh Dear Friends," and "Morley Timmons". The band released its second and final LP, Set You Free, in mid-1997, and set off on a well-attended tour with Boston band Karate. Chisel played its last show on 16 May 1997, in Knoxville, TN at the end of its tour. Plans to tour the West Coast and Europe were scrapped. 2022: Re-releases On 14 March 2022, Chisel's digital discography was deleted from streaming services. Numero Group announced that were behind it and that they would be re-releasing the Chisel discography, starting with the "It's Alright, You're O.K." b/w "Guns of Meridian Hill" single and would later be ending with an expanded version of Set You Free. On May 10, Numero released an EP titled "All My Kin" featuring remastered versions of the title track and "Rip Off The Gift", both from Set You Free, and a previously unreleased live recording of "The Unthinkable is True". On July 12, the "Innocents Abroad" EP was released, featuring remastered versions of four songs from "Nothing New". On September 12, the "What About Blighty?" single was released, featuring the title track originally from 8 A.M. All Day. On September 30, Numero announced Numero Twenty, a festival celebrating twenty years of Numero Group being active. A slew of reunions were announced for the fest, including Chisel. On November 16, the band announced two additional dates, one staying in California and the other in Chicago.
