New found respect for the band Chevelle: Question inside

Always listened to their singles on the radio, but never took it beyond that. Never bought a cd or downloaded any of their stuff. I recently came across their full album collection on youtube. I let it play over the course of a day starting with their early stuff leading up to their latest album, and I was blown away. I never knew they had so many good songs besides the ones we're all familiar from radio. I really like their sound and the tone of the dudes voice. They have been very consistent over the years (based on what I heard on the albums) sticking to what they're good at without getting repetitive.
Of course the ones we know:
Face to the floor
Send the plain below
Hats off to the bull
CLincher
Vitamin R
Letters from a Theif
Jars
Well Enough Alone
My favorites:
Sleep Apnea
Pinata
Primma Maddona
Highlands Apparition
Shameful Metaphores
My question is do they have anything I'm missing out on? 4 albums starting with Vena Sera to their latest Hats off to the Bull? Any good songs I haven't listed?

They have 6 albums, so you're missing out on some stuff:
Point #1
Wonder What's Next
This Type of Thinking
Vena Sera
Sci-Fi Crimes
Hats Off to the Bull
As for good songs, my list would be entirely too long since I really enjoy most of the stuff they put out. Straight Jacket Fashion is definitely one of my favorites, though: LINK

Awesome, I'll check it out this evening. As of now Sci-Fi Crimes is my favorite.

You got me intrigued now. I've liked some of their stuff but never checked them out in-depth like that

Shameful Metaphors really is a good track, but they don't play it much live.
We played a few tracks off Point #1 back when I was at KLSU in the late 90's/early 2000's.

Point #1 got a good bit of radio play in Memphis when I was in high school Always was a big fan.
Was cool seeing them play groovin on the grounds around 2005 or 2006.

2 of my favorites from them. They're one of the few bands that put out an album that I can actually listen to all the way through without skipping a song...and the greatest feat to me, is that is on multiple albums.

I liked Mia off the first album. Their cover of Thieves was really good live too. The first few times I saw them they were a lot heavier than you'd expect judging by their radio singles.

You forgot "The Red."
That's my jam from back in the day.

One of my top 5 albums ever. Every song is good. If you havent listened, be prepared for something new because it sounds nothing like their other stuff.
I saw them at Freakers Ball in Dallas in 99 touring that album, played first and basically got booed the whole time by the Sevendust, Coal Chamber, Head pe, etc fans. The wonderful irony is a few years later all those bands would be opening for them. I still respect them and glad they made it, but i dont like anything theyve done since that album.
