Their best album yet
It seems like every one of their previous albums has great rock tracks, but filler near the end. Their previous albums suffer from the same weakness that many albums from newer bands - they start off great, but falter near the end.

This album, however, breaks that trend. From beginning to end, the songs are catchy, have great music, and are just fun to listen to. Even down to the final track, 'Sci-Fi Crimes' rocks!.


Always Amazing
Their music is the best I think I've ever heard and their cd's keep getting better and better. Chevelle never ceases to amaze me. I love their song "Jars". I thought this cd was totally worth it. .


If you're a fan, you probably know what to expect..
After the first couple listens, I felt there were definitely a couple of filler tracks but they've all grown on me. And probably won't be disappointed. For me, it's probably my fourth favorite album of theirs, but that isn't much of a slam as the three above it are all probably as close to masterpieces as you can get when compared to most of the rest of what you hear in this genre of music.

Their new bassist is good, but I definitely miss the ultra oppressive crunching you'd get now and then on a song like, say, Comfortable Liar from WWN. Sleep Apnea and Fell Into Your Shoes are as good as anything they've ever done, though, and even some of the songs that initially strike you as filler you'll probably come around to (Pete's wailing in Roswell's Spell could give anyone chills).


WARNING



Sci Fi Crimes is twenty thousand better than Wonder What's Next will EVER be and again if you think Wonder What's Next is there best album this is NOT the album for you. WARNING! WARNING! WARNING! WARNING!

If you believe Chevelle's best tracks include Closure, The Red and Get Some than please don't waste your time with this album.


Sci Fi Crimes is an album driven by creating incredible music not catchy tunes. Sci Fi Crimes is filled with fantastic lyrics and original music. From Shameful Metaphors to Fell Into Yours Shoes to This Circus this album is incredible for any true music lover, not the Chevelle or any music fan for that manner that's into "catchy tunes"

Don't miss out on this one. It's worth it.

Never changing Always good
They didn't change. Chevelle has never changed from album to album and they did just that here. Sci-Fi Crimes is another great CD produced by Chevelle. You won't be disappointed with this CD if you love hard rock music.
