So, is Chevelle emo?
 

Well, is it?
They are great...I love Mia, Dont fake this, and The Red

Yeah... I like Chevelle...i would necessarily consider them Emo...a few of their lyrics are... Im not saying they Arent Emo... just not as Emo as other bands...

I wouldn't really consider Chevelle emo...but that's just my opinion.

what would you call them then?

I couldnt think of a proper label to fit them, because they have alot of variety in their songs, but i would say it would be along the lines of more hardcore, heartfelt, thoughtful type of music...they put alot of time is their songs, and most of them are about Love and Hate... thats were the get the Emo from.

I wound't call them emo. Not by a long shot. The lyrics have some emo, but then again, what lyrics aren't really emotional? I don't know. I don't care for them much. my opinion is all

I'm not sure actually...maybe a mix of alternative with soft rock.

yea i wouldn't call them emo.. probably something around like most others said.. soft rock alternative.

one band i could never figure out is vendetta red- they have a tint of metal and hardcore punk in them and then they have songs like shatterday which have that classic emo sound... though their lyrics are NOT typical of emo

Im not as much into them as tha normal fan, but if you look into their lyrics, I can see when the idea of them bein emo comes frm, but I dont consider them it. more alternative soft rock, but good nonetheless

Hmm, I'd call Chevelle mod rock, but they definitely have more emo tendencies than say Nickelback.

As for vendetta red, I'd definitely call them emo, but the hardcore emo, closer to Texas is the Reason or Jawbreaker. So we'll call them emo/new metal.

No way... not more than nickelback!!!

nickelback=poop

I consider Chevelle Nu Metal, I guess. They toured with Distured and Taproot on the Music as a weapon II tour.

Yes, I'd call them Nu Metal as well, but I actually enjoy their music, it actually has something to it, as opposed to Trapt and the sort. I also like LostProphets so...
