Four years after crawling through the nihilistic haze of NIRATIAS, Chevelle are back and this time, they’re staring straight into the void. The band has announced their new album, Bright as Blasphemy, due out August 15 via Alchemy Recordings, and dropped a brutal new single to match: ‘Jim Jones (Cowards, Pt. 2)’.
Check it out here:
The track follows ‘Rabbit Hole (Cowards, Pt. 1)’, It’s dark, disillusioned, and locked into that slow burn groove Chevelle made their name on, music that broods rather than begs for attention.
“The longest rabbit hole has no end.”
That’s the only quote Chevelle offered with the single. What more needs to be said? This new material suggests the Cowards arc isn’t just a lyrical throughline, it’s a worldview. The album promises nine tracks of tension and introspection, with titles like ‘Pale Horse’, ‘Hallucinations’, and ‘Shocked at the End of the World’ hinting at more of the cold, cosmic commentary they explored on their last release.
New tour with Asking Alexandria + Dead Poet Society
To mark the arrival of Bright as Blasphemy, Chevelle are heading out on a massive North American headline tour this summer, bringing along scene mainstays Asking Alexandria and alt rock risers Dead Poet Society. The run kicks off August 7 in San Antonio and stretches into October, wrapping with a festival slot at Aftershock on October 4.
