I did the same at the beginning of this article so I went and checked In My Hands on the YouTubes and was like, “oh yeah! I remember.” Dumb though, because I know Filter is from Cleveland because of the Richard Patrick NIN connection.

Same actually. Same.

Same here. I really had no particular reverence for this band, but this was an interesting and pleasant read.

BRING BACK THE SHACK

(Apparently said shack is indeed back as they did an indiegogo for a new record this year)

Yeah, I owned a few too many of these sorts of CDs when I was in middle school, and Fuel’s was pretty damn good by comparison. Anyone remember Default? Probably for the best that you don’t, honestly the name escaped me too but what do you know they’re the top-listed “Fans Also Like” band for Fuel on Spotify. Anyway, that band was the first time I bought a CD based on the single (“Wasting My Time,” it’s, um, not a 10) and realized in horror that no matter how much I listened there was not one other passably decent song on the whole album.

Them as well as Live when Ed left

Actually 3 brothers I’m pretty sure

Man. I went to some HFStivals in my day but I’m glad I was gone by the time those lineups were gracing the stage. Dark times.

All I had to do was read the headline and it popped in my head

They were the Goo Goo Dolls of buttrock. And I mean that as a compliment.

you all took this as Slander. Chevelle literally was started by two brothers. SHAME

Chevelle’s got some bangers so why not

Gimme fire, gimme that which I desire, but definitely don’t gimme Fuel.

oh wait, we’re talking about the band Fuel, not the song “Fuel”

hell yeah. go fuck yourself john cale.

I’m not a huge fan of the whole rock scene from the 2000’s but I will not hear any Chevelle slander!

One of my fondest high school band memories

I guess I was somewhat disconnected from pop culture during the mid 90s/early 2000s.

Lucky you!

I loved “Shimmer” a ton when it dropped. That was right around the time I was starting to get into modern rock (I was 13/14) and it hit the right angst chords for me. I had the single of it, then got the album, Sunburn, and stayed into them long enough to get the second album, Something Like Human. But they were way in my rearview mirror by the time the third album came out (so of course that’s what they won Grammys for, haha). Hadn’t thought about them in a while, had no idea there’d been all that lineup drama over the years.

Hemorrhage as well. And there was also that brief point where their song “Bad Day” seemed inescapable, but was eventually overshadowed by that other song with the same name.

but, “memorably”

I had the exact same thought halfway through the article.

do you “wonder what’s next”?

agreed. i saw these guys on tour with Jimmy’s Chicken Shack. can we do them next?

“shimmer” was inescapable on modern rock radio in the mid-to-late 90s, at least where i grew up.
