Point #1 by Chevelle
Point #1 is an album by Chevelle, released in 1999. 1 song from it has charted on rock radio countdowns, with 1 countdown appearance in total. The biggest is “Mia”, on 1 list with a best position of #99.
Point #1, Chevelle's debut album, came out on May 4, 1999, on the small Squint Entertainment label, and it's a family affair from Grayslake, Illinois: Pete Loeffler singing and playing guitar, brother Sam on drums, brother Joe on bass. The surprise is behind the glass. Steve Albini produced it, the only time the band worked with him, and the sound is dry and bruising, the guitars grinding, the drums sounding like drums, and Pete's voice swinging from a hush to a roar with no studio sugar to soften it.
The title track was the single that got them noticed. It was only a modest start, though: the major-label Wonder What's Next arrived in 2002 and made them far bigger.
