CHEVELLE To Get 'More Aggressive' On New Album
May 11, 2004Billboard.com is reporting that CHEVELLE have entered a Los Angeles studio with producer Michael Elvis Baskette to begin recording their new album, tentatively due in the fall through Epic Records.
"I want to avoid being one of those bands that follows-up a successful album by watering down what they did before," guitarist/vocalist Pete Loeffler said about the new album's direction. "I asked [drummer] Sam [Loeffler] to break out the double-kick bass-drum pedal because I want to make an album that's more aggressive than anything we've done before but doesn't sacrifice melody or dynamics."
Among the cuts set to appear on the upcoming CD is "Still Running", which was recently issued on "The Punisher" soundtrack. "We're pretty sure that song will make the new album, but it probably won't be the same version," Sam Loeffler told Billboard.com.
CHEVELLE's previous album, 2002's "Wonder What's Next", sold 1.16 million copies in the U.S., according to Nielsen SoundScan.
