Editorial Reviews

Evaline twists and elevates punk-pop to a ferociously unique new level on postpartum modesty. a portrait of skin, the debut EP from the band discovered and produced by Quinn Allman of The Used. From the EP’s challenging title to the quintet’s multidimensional wall of sound and shockingly ethereal lyricism, Evaline proves to be a band apart. With the Central California group playing every date of the Warped Tour, Evaline will be introduced across the county this summer. Buckle up.

my son from sweden came over, and what to do but to see the Van's Warped Tour? A confusing mess of a festival, we stumbled upon this band, and what did we find? A lyrical band, with every instrument fleshing out the sound. This was a refreshing find, as many other bands could not crawl out of lower registers, so murky and bottom heavy as to be indistinct and growly, with pseudo angry exhortations ringing false. Evaline was the best part of $35 spent on the whole show. Even if you pick up a used copy cheap, money well spent. I would see these guys in a heartbeat, but I'm sure not gonna travel to Turlock! Invite them to your town.

I was absolutely blown away at the debut EP from up and comers Evaline! Everything from the beautiful and sometimes morbid lyrics, to the excellent music score produced by the talented guitarist Quinn Alman from The Used. I happend to see the second half of their set on the 2007 Rockstar Taste of Chaos, considering the fact that I arrived late, and was incredibly moved by their performance. Though while live, they don't have the most energy in the world as apposed to the other bands on tour like Chiodos, Aiden, or Senses Fail, however the expertly done songs make up for that. I expect to hear a lot from Evaline in the near future. I can't wait for their full-length to come out and blow the world away!

No they don't sound like every generic big label band. This ep is on of the more impressive debut's of the year (they also stood out at Warped Tour, as well as Taste of Chaos). Don't let the fact that Quinn Allman(the Used) produced this release give you false expectations, this is impressive. It's not too in your face, and it's layered very well. The first two tracks are the strongest.
