Chevelle‘s Sam Loeffler lately sat down with Full Steel Jackie on KLOS‘ “Whiplash” to debate the band’s latest surprise-drop single, “Rabbit Gap (Cowards, Pt. 1)” – their first single in 4 years – and the unannounced report it comes from.
It will likely be Chevelle‘s tenth studio report, and it is truly the band’s first in over a decade with out longtime producer, Joe Barresi, on the helm.
He began because the band’s producer on Chevelle‘s 2011 report, Hats Off To The Bull, however for his or her most up-to-date report, Barresi himself steered he take a step again from the reigns: “He mentioned to us, he goes, ‘You guys ought to do one thing completely different. Go strive doing a report yourselves. See the way it goes,'” Loeffler defined (transcribed via Blabbermouth).
“It is the toughest factor we have ever completed, for positive. It is most likely not value it, however we did it, and we will say we did it,” Loeffler continued.
And never solely have the band self-produced their report, but it surely’s their first report with new label, Alchemy Recordings – “We branched out and have become a part of a label with our associates that we have identified for 25 years within the enterprise,” Loeffler elaborated, whereas stressing that they “nonetheless have an excellent relationship with [Epic Records],” their former label. Loeffler goes onto clarify the choice additional, stating that one half of Alchemy Recordings, Danny Wimmer, “tried to signal us to Flawless Data again in like 2000, and it did not work out… so now, in spite of everything these years, we have signed with him and his present label, so it was form of cool.”
Moreover, other than their departure from Epic Data and signing to Alchemy Recordings and self-producing a report for the primary time, the following Chevelle report will not be too par for the course.
Vocalist and guitarist Pete Loeffler is the band’s lyricist that “likes to write down about issues occurring round him,” and writes about “something that is simply fascinating you may make fascinating in an fascinating manner. That is a number of ‘fascinating’ phrases there” – so, nothing has actually modified on that entrance. However, additionally Loeffler supplied – with out giving an excessive amount of away – that the following single is “positively about happening rabbit holes.”
And when describing the report final yr to TribLive.com, Sam Loeffler mentioned that they are “at all times skewing in direction of heavy. These two songs that we have been engaged on proper now are positively completely different from every thing we did… This [record] positively sounds completely different than simply rock music, positively completely different.”
