| | Chevelle Vena Sera CD Chevelle Discography of CDs
 (15 Customer Reviews)
The first Chevelle album recorded without all three Loeffler brothers (bassist Joe Loeffler departed in 2005, replaced by Dean Bernadini), VENA SERA stays confidently within the Illinois-based trio's well-honed heavy-rock sound. As on past outings, the group's strong Tool/A Perfect Circle influence is notable, but frontman Pete Loeffler tailors that aesthetic to his own more accessible approach on fierce tunes such as the surging "Well Enough Alone."
Audio Mixer: Michael "Elvis" Baskette.
Recording information: Studio Barbarosa, Bavon, VA; The Palms, Las Vegas, NV.
Chevelle: Peter Loeffler (vocals, guitar); Dean Bernardini (bass guitar); Sam Loeffler (drums).
Personnel: Jef Moll (programming).
Vena Sera Music Review Average Rating: (4.7 out of 5 stars)   List All Reviews Good, but not their best
A solid addition, but this is by no means their best work (see "wonder what's next). My problem with this album is that it's too "radio-rockish" and is doesen't have quite the raw power of their earlier albums. Even "This type of thinking" had that impact even if it was skewed a little on the lighter side. It's not a bad album and has it's moments - and if you're a fan I'd recommend it. Just make sure you have their earleir works first :)

awesome album by far. i didn't think they'd be able to top this type of thinking, being that the album itself rocks. well enough alone is AMAZING vocal-wise. I think pete has one of the most beautiful voices in the rock world. keep it up guys, you freakin rock.

Following the release of its 1999 debut, POINT #1, Chevelle acquired a more sophisticated sound that can be traced through contributions made to the DAREDEVIL and PUNISHER soundtracks, right up through the metal band's third album, 2004's THIS TYPE OF THINKING (COULD DO US IN). With Peter Chevelle (AKA Loeffler)'s choppy, sinister ...

Vena Sera songs
$15.05 
To its legion of fans, everything the band Tool does is an event, but the elaborate plan behind their sporadic release schedule--roughly five years, on average, between albums--is due primarily to the time and effort the band packs into each successive effort. To title their fourth album 10,000 DAYS, then, isn't as much an exaggeration as it would seem. Tool are America's most consummate mainstream perfectionists, revitalizing progressive rock ...

"Tryin' To Get To New Orleans" was nominated for a 1996 Grammy Award for Best Country Performance By A Duo Or Group With Vocal.
In a musical milieu dominated by hat acts and assembly-line arrangements, Tulsa's Tractors have delved deep into their Oklahoma roots to rekindle some real down-home fire on the country charts. THE TRACTORS' chicken-fried, Southwestern sounds harken back to those wild nights at the local roadhouse, gettin' down to the sounds of hard drinkin' storytellers as the band pumps out dirt-floor boogie from behind a barbed-wire fence.
With "The Tulsa Shuffle." the Tractors give a nod to their favorite musical styles, while making a persuasive case for their own good-natured, down home mix of country, blues, R&B and western swing. A rocket-in-the-pocket version of Chuck Berry's "Thirty Days" reinforces these connections, as lead singer Steve Ripley's gruff, yard-dog vocals frame the tune in a decidedly back-porch context.
Elsewhere, the Tractors employ a host of legendary sidemen in telling cameo roles. On the terrific "The Little Man" the Tractors fantasize about bankers, IRS flunkies and politicians trading places with actual working people ("the little man is getting smaller all the time"), as Bonnie Raitt's slide guitar moans away in the distance. Telecaster guitar legend James Burton enlivens "Baby Likes To Rock It"; the venerable Bob Wills guitarist Eldon Shamblin puts the pedal ...
