Title: Chevelle cruises some new terrain
Product review: The Amazon.com reviewer, in what has become classic inside-baseball music reviewer style, puts down another band that first came to life on a "Christian" label [Steve Taylor's Squint Records], and because its vocalist reminds you of a vocalist in the "secular" market, "It's A Ripoff And It's Not That Good." [See: Chevelle vs. Tool, formerly Creed vs. Pearl Jam and even dc Talk vs. U2.] In truth, this album is quite experimental in a number of places and doesn't appear to qualify as the same old Chevelle...except for those crunching guitars and throbbing bass sonics typifying the "solid" sound that, as the reviewer grudgingly admits, Chevelle seems to deliver on every CD. As usual with Chevelle, you'll probably hate half the tracks, love the other half, and as another reviewer noted, that kind of hit ratio is a lot better than most bands have been posting for decades. Enjoy.
