Chicago-based trio Chevelle is set to release its fifth studio album Sci-Fi Crimes on Thursday, Sept. 1 including new single “Jars,” which entered the Top 20 two weeks after its release. Collaborating with groups such as 30 Seconds to Mars, Deftones and Jane’s Addiction, Sci-Fi Crimes is a follow-up of Chevelle’s 2007 album Vena Sera.

“This record represents a natural progression in the band’s maturity and sound. We really wanted to take the time to write about some of our experiences and feelings since our last tour, both during and in the time afterwards,” said Chevelle singer and guitarist Pete Loeffler.
