The Chariot was a HardcorePunk/[[{{Main/Metalcore}} Mathcore]] band from Douglasville, Georgia, active from 2003 to 2013. Self described as "heavy punk rock", it was formed by lead vocalist and only constant member, Josh Scogin, after infamously leaving metalcore band Music/NormaJean. Outside of that, they are most known for leaning heavily into the "core" side of mathcore, including heavy Christian undertones in many of their lyrics, and being a RevolvingDoorBand.
They started off as Scogin with a variety of local musicians from the Douglasville area: Lead guitarist, additional singer, and drummer Keller Harbin, guitarist Tony Medina, and bassist Joshua Beiser. Before recording their first album, Harbin left the drum kit to Jeff Carter, and they recorded and released their first album, ''Everything Is Alive, Everything Is Breathing, Nothing Is Dead and Nothing Is Breathing'' in 2004 through Creator/SolidState. The album was recorded live, to analog tape, and produced by Matt Goldman, who would produce all of their releases in the future. Afterwards, Carter left to form Deus Invictus, and Jake Ryan joined as drummer. Medina left shortly afterwards, before the recording of ''Unsung EP'', released in 2005.
Harbin and Beiser left at the same time as each other, and were replaced by guitarists Jon Terrey and Dan Eaton, leaving Scogin as the only original member before even recording their second album. Eaton was also bassist for a while, before Jon "KC Wolf" Kindler joined. They recorded and released their second album ''The Fiancée'' in 2007.
In 2008, Eaton, Terrey, and Ryan all left at the same time, and were replaced by Bryan Russel Taylor, Dan Vokey (from Music/IHateSally), and David Kennedy. They recorded their third album ''Wars and Rumors of Wars'' in 2009 with this lineup, but before it was released, Vokey left and Stephen Harrison joined. Jon Terrey rejoined the band, replacing Taylor, in 2010, prior to recording their forth album. ''Long Live'' was released through Creator/GoodFight instead of Creator/SolidState. Terrey re-left straight afterwards, and Brandon Henderson was brought in.
Before recording their fifth album, Kindler left to return to college, leaving Henderson and Harrison to record both guitar and bass on the new album, and use bass amps and octave pedals to fill up the space live. ''One Wing'' was released in 2012 through Creator/GoodFight and Entertainment One. On August 16th 2013, they announced their breakup through a video on their Youtube channel, titled [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bFye6KDNuVI All's Well That Ends Well]]. Their farewell tour spanned October 10th to November 16, and finished at The Masquerade, Atlanta.
After the breakup, Scogin went on to form his guitar-and-drums duo [[{{Music/SixtyEight}} '68]]. Keller Harbin formed The Glass Ocean with Joshua Beiser in 2006, and is also in Holy+Gold with ex-members of Music/NormaJean. Bryan Russel Taylor records under the name Slowriter, and him, David Kennedy, and Jon Terrey formed The Threats in 2017. Terrey is also a solo musician, performs guitar in Listener, and is the vocalist in Parants. Harrison was a member of the supergroup The Fever 333, formed by [[{{Music/Letlive}} letlive.]] vocalist Jason Aalon Butler, before leaving in October 2022.

** The first and last letters of the song titles on ''Wars and Rumors of Wars'' spell out "The end is nigh and so am I." Additionally, certain song titles have extraneous punctuation marks at the end (e.g. "Teach:", "Need:", "Abandon.").
** The odd numbered tracks on ''Long Live'' are named after contest winners. Along with the even numbered tracks, they can also be combined with the album title to form a tribute (e.g. Long Live the Audience, Long Live Andy Sundwall).
** The track titles on ''One Wing'' are a message:
