Chevelle to film fan-driven video

Multi-platinum Epic Records recording artist Chevelle will be shooting a completely fan driven video for their new single “Shameful Metaphor”s at Sunday’s August 22nd stop on the Carnival of Madness Tour in Dallas at the Verizon Theater. Chevelle’s entire set will be shot, using the footage to create the new music video and allowing all of the fans attending to have the unique opportunity to be featured.

Drummer Sam Loeffler said, “We thought this would be an awesome opportunity for fans to really get involved with Chevelle and our new video. If it weren’t for our fans we wouldn’t have made it this far and we felt a live performance video would be perfect. We want everyone to come on down to the show, hang, and rock out with us.”

“Shameful Metaphors” is the third single off of Chevelle’s most recent release Sci-fi Crimes which debuted at #6 on Billboards Rock Chart, the highest entry on the charts for the band. “Sci-fi Crimes” has already produced two top 10 singles in “Jars” and “Letter From a Thief”. “Jars” peaked on the Hot Mainstream Rock Charts at #2 while “Letter From a Thief” peaked at #5.

Chevelle is currently wrapping up their Carnival of Madness tour with Shinedown, Sevendust, Puddle of Mudd and 10 years. Chevelle will be celebrating their “Ten in 10” anniversary, looking back at the band’s top ten greatest hits over the last decade which include The Red, Send The Pain Below, Closure, Vitamin R, The Clincher, Well Enough Alone, I Get It, The Fad, Jars and Letters From A Thief. In an effort to give back to the fans that made it all possible, the band will perform two nights in their hometown at Metro in Chicago on Oct. 29 and 30th, the venue where they got their start a decade ago.

Over the past 10 years, Chevelle has had a very successful career producing 10 Top 10 singles, 2 Top 10 albums and remained a staple in the rock scene. The Chicago-trio has taken rock music to another level; their dark, ominous lyrics and unique sound combined with rich overtones make a statement that is hard to ignore and separates them from the rest of the modern rock scene. “Ten in 10” celebrates all of the bands accomplishments and is a look back on their successes while continuing to move forward towards a bright musical future.
