Great Christian band probably the closest thing that Christian music has to Tool :)

[iLikechevelle]

@fiercey Chevelle isn't a Christian band for the millionth time! They never were and won't ever be. This record got distrubuted by a Christian Label, but they aren't a Christian band. they make it a point to keep religion and politics out of their music.

[MrJoshBerk]

@fiercey Chevelle is not a Christian band. I'm not sure where this misconception began. Just because their music was released on a "Christian" label does not automatically pigeonhole their work to the Christian genre. 

[iLikechevelle]

@MrJoshBerk thank you someone who actually knows

[juxtapositioning]

@iLikechevelle Sorry, but when you look them up, they come up as Christian, and even if they are, it's more power to a music genre I've hated for years. I still can find their music in christian rock sections.

[iLikechevelle]

@juxtapositioning yeah, but those are from years ago. I've asked them. They're not a Christian band, never were and never will be. The reason why you find their music in Christian rock sections is because Squint Entertianment, their first label by owned by John Tesh and Amy Grant. Both are popular christian artists. It was a label mix up, Chevelle shouldn't still be associated with. The only reason why they're still mentioned with the "christian rock" term is because of People like you. stfu

Chevelle is one of my guilty pleasures, but GODDAMNIT why should I feel guilty about such a badass band?!  They are the shit! Fuck anyone that doesn't get it!

@adhok99 they aren't a Christian band. But they are Christian.

[nickalos44]

@ADHOK99 im sorry but i gotta ask, why would it matter? (no disrespect but it just kinda struck a pet peeve of mine)

[nostide]

@fiercey in your dreams

This album was the best. Everything else was way too mainstream-y. The point #1 album that is.

@iLikechevelle Actually "Saferwaters", "Long", " Build" "Credit to You" "Telestai" and most of the songs off of the blue album, r super duper religious. Look up the lyrics to almost any song (off of the blue album) and then u can actually understand what Pete is saying, they toned it down a bunch in Wonder Whats next and their other cd's. I disagree about the politics thing too, they have references to global warming issues and animal rights issues too. I personally love it when bands do that.
