“Epic Records unveiled ‘Niratias‘ in March 2021, a labor of love meticulously crafted between 2019 and 2020 under the skilled guidance of esteemed producer Joe Barresi (known for his work with AVENGED SEVENFOLD and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE). Boris Vallejo, the illustrious artist renowned for his iconic ’70s and ’80s science fiction novel covers and magazine illustrations (including Heavy Metal), lent his talents to the album artwork, infusing it with his distinctive flair.”
CHEVELLE frontman Pete Loeffler recently spoke about the band’s plans for the follow-up to 2021’s “Niratias” LP during an appearance on Joel Madden‘s podcast “Artist Friendly”. He said (as transcribed by BLABBERMOUTH.NET): “We’ve tracked 10 full-length songs at this point for the new album. We signed a new contract to put out one more [LP]. So we’re in the process of finishing that up. So there’s definitely one more [album] coming.”
Discussing the potential timetable for the release of the new CHEVELLE LP, Pete said: “It’s hard to say when it’ll [be released]. It’s kind of stewing right now. We did eight songs, set ’em aside, took a break, did two more recently. I was actually just wrapping it up yesterday — the second song — and burned a mix so I could listen to it on the plane on the way here. I’ve gotta go revisit those other eight now and say, ‘Are they done?’
“We mixed one and it sounded great. [I’m] super happy about it. That whole process started again. I went back and I listened to it. I was, like, ‘Can I rewrite this song?’ as a just kind of something to try and wrote an entirely different model of that song again. And this is what Pro Tools will get you into. You’re, like, ‘Oh, I can, I can quickly do something that in the past I’d have to sit down and map out with my brother in real time.’ So it’s good and bad. The only bad side is that I’m spending the time to learn that system instead of writing.”
“Throughout their illustrious career, Chicago’s own CHEVELLE has left a huge mark on the rock landscape, amassing nearly half a billion streams and securing seven No. 1 hits. Their platinum-selling opus ‘Wonder What’s Next,‘ featuring smash hits like ‘The Red‘ and ‘Send The Pain Below,’ stands as a testament to their musical prowess.
Other standout releases like ‘This Type Of Thinking (Could Do Us In)‘ and ‘Vena Sera‘ garnered platinum and gold certifications respectively, while their albums consistently charted in the Top 10 of the Billboard 200. Notably, ‘Sci-Fi Crimes,’ ‘Hats Off To The Bull,’ ‘La Gárgola,’ and ‘The North Corridor‘ all made waves, with the latter two clinching the No. 1 spot on the Top Rock Albums chart.”
Originating from Chicago, Illinois, CHEVELLE has solidified their position as a prominent force in the rock music scene since their formation in the mid-1990s. Comprising brothers Pete Loeffler (vocals and guitar) and Sam Loeffler (drums), along with Dean Bernardini (bass), the band has earned widespread acclaim for their distinctive blend of alternative metal and hard rock. CHEVELLE‘s signature sound is characterized by heavy riffs, intricate melodies, and emotionally charged lyrics, creating a sonic landscape that resonates deeply with listeners.
