La Gárgola, Spanish for "The Gargoyle", is Chevelle's seventh studio album, released on Epic on April 1, 2014, and the Grayslake, Illinois, band dress it up like a horror flick: that's singer Pete Loeffler on the cover in a plague doctor's mask. Joe Barresi, who had produced Hats Off to the Bull, came back behind the desk, and the sound is all serrated alt-metal riffs and lurching grooves, with Loeffler flipping between a croon and a roar.
It's still a family business. Pete's brother Sam Loeffler pounds the drums and their brother-in-law Dean Bernardini holds down the bass. The album even lived on in an unlikely form: in August 2019 the band teamed up with Revolution Brewing on a Helles Lager named after it, with the cover art on the label.
