    TOP STORIES / Топ новости
    Hmm . . . CHETT. Strange name. What does it mean? Is it that guy from Weird Science? Is it a country singer? And why the capital letters? Is it an acronym? Or maybe some kind of literary device, like e.e. cummings, only in reverse.

    Maybe not.

    Maybe CHETT is the name of a rock band, nothing more, nothing less. Maybe CHETT is a 4-piece rock band based out of Rockford, Illinois. Maybe they're a group of guys who have been plugging their guitars in and making noise together for almost 5 years now, and maybe they love it. Maybe one of them is named CHETT . . . but probably not.

    In those first 5 years, the guys from CHETT went through a lot. They saw ups and they sawdowns. They tragically lost their first drummer, Jason, to heart failure in 2004, but they got back up and kept going. They played on, and with Pearl Jam, Sparta, The Who, The Prayer Chain and U2 blasting from their speakers they kept moving forward, testing the creative waters with new sounds and novel approaches to making music. They played hundreds of shows and amassed a large contingent of followers throughout the Midwest: when they hit the road in their pickupequipment trailer in towit took them from the dive bars of Indiana to the back alleys of Chicago, from the endless cornfields of Iowa to the frozen climes of Minnesota, and everywhere in between.

    In May of 2004 they self-released their first full-length studio album called Weary Path, which was produced and engineered by Jeffro Lacksheide (The Felix Culpa, The Moment) and mastered by Trevor Sadler (NIN, Moby). A couple of tracks"Set Me Down" and "Burned"landed them a spot on the 2004 Rolling Rock Town Fair Battle of the Bands, which was held at The Hard Rock Cafe in Chicago, and a couple more"Growth On" and "Heaven"were featured on the soundtrack to the independent film Necromance.

    Now it's 2006, and they guys from CHETT are still playing. Bands, clubs, friends, and naysayers have all come and gone, but CHETT is still going strong. On May 13th, 2006 they will release their second full-length album, titled The Swell. This release combines all the emotions, feelings and frustrations that come from being in a band, and from just living life. From the crushing intensity of the opener, "Paper Doll," to the soft release of "Last Days," The Swell is CHETT's hope for the future. The hope that they will keep playing, and thatmaybepeople will keep listening. They know that there will be ups and there will be downs, they know that they'll face adversity and hopefully come out on top. But regardless of what life throws at them, the guys from CHETT will keep on playing, loud and hard and intense. CHETT will keep playing, strange name and all.
