Chevelle is an American hard rock band that formed in 1995 in Grayslake, Illinois. The band was originally comprised of three brothers: Pete (lead vocals/guitar), Sam (drums/percussion), and Joe Loeffler (bass/vocals). Joe left the band in 2005 and was replaced by Dean Bernardini soon after. Chevelle has sold nearly two million albums in the United States. Its second album, Wonder What's Next, was certified Platinum by the RIAA. Since its formation, Chevelle has released four studio albums, one live album, and one DVD
"The Fad" is the third single from Chevelle's 2007 album, Vena Sera. Pete Loeffler stated in a live show that he wrote this song while in Las Vegas
The music video was premiered on the internet on March 3, 2008. The video features a gang of clowns capturing people who have done wrong, who then take them away and fight them
The band appears briefly in the video as guys helping the clowns and driving their getaway van
The video also features the clown "Jeff Hilliard" that appeared as one of the main characters in the video for Chevelle's second single "I Get It"

Soon the men
Taste their own normalcy
Ends that day
Consumed by all
Irrational thoughts depend
Then shape their tastesLet's call it change
Let's call it changeOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itLaugh at the violence
Laugh at the violenceTrue to form
He's blind as his taste for cheat
Panther piss
He loves to live beyond the card
So count us in to that Gucci clan
The fat faceLet's call it "the chase"
I'll call it a phaseOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itLaugh at the violence
Laugh at the violence
Laugh at the violenceSo sell your voodoo
And recognize this
Your last and only score
But you hung up on your strikesOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itOnce the fad
Permeates
It's hip to care
It's hip to hate itOnce the fad
Once the fad
