Two years after the release of Vena Sera, Sci-Fi Crimes comes to life, but even with the extraterrestrial theme throughout the album you don’t really feel like you need to discover what it is all about. The album is a typical Chevelle album through and through, meaning that there are a few songs that are sketchy, like “Roswell’s Spell” but then you find a gem like “This Circus” which is one of their best songs to date. Another odd choice is the release of Jars as their radio single, and the strange track ordering on the album. Sci-Fi Crimes is defiantly not an awful, or even sub-standard record, it’s just another one for the collection. 3/5
