Vinyl LP / Gatefold CD. London 5 piece Evans the Death return with Vanilla, their most ambitious and experimental album to date, eschewing the more traditional pop structures and hooks of their first two albums, 2012's ST debut and 2015's Expect Delays. While Expect Delays was a step towards something more interesting, more collaborative, experimental and abrasive - a bleak, introspective kind of album that still retained a pop sensibility - Vanilla sees the band veer in an ever more adventurous direction: more aggressive, extroverted and raw. The band was formed by brothers Dan and Olly Moss, singer Katherine Whitaker, James Burkitt(drums) and Daniel Raphael (bass). The new album was recorded at Lightship95 in London with producer Rory Attwell. Highly variegated in style and mood, brimming with extreme contrasts, from noisy to funky to melodic, energetic to dejected, full of chaos and restlessness, the album was the result of a carefully planned recording strategy. With no specific musical reference point, the songs on Vanilla veer wildly in style, lending a real energy and vitality to the flow of the album. There's the psychedelic snarl of Haunted Wheelchair built around dissonant, ominous, jazz-like chords, which build a sense of dread and paranoia but also a strange excitement. There's also the no-wave party vibe of Suitcase Jimmy , a semi-improvised portrait of a fictional down-at-heel actor built around a Wilko Johnson-ish guitar part. Hey! Buddy is an unintentionally mean-spirited askew pop tune from the point of view of a cloying and over-zealous fan of the band. While the wartime dancehall of Cable St. Blues is an odd duet between two parts of the psyche, representing an argument you have with yourself, about depression and extreme self-criticism and self-doubt, struggling to function , and named after the site of the 1936 riots where the band wrote the album. Newest member Daniel Raphael's present to the band, Hot Sauce is led by a groovy, capacious bassline, while Olly's Armchair Theatre , the quietest, prettiest song on the record, starts out like a soft rock classic and turns in to a gorgeously mournful song with the lyric Welcome to Usk drews on Ennio Morricone's spaghetti western soundtracks and parts of Vivian Kubrick's score for Full Metal Jacket, with a banging disco section thrown in for good measure. A dark, howling, ragged storm of an album, impossible to categorise, Vanilla is anything but a far cry from the bland, unimaginative music that pervades the airwaves. It is a brittle, brilliant new chapter in the story of a band who never fail to surprise. Tracklisting: 1. Haunted Wheelchair 2. Suitcase Jimmy 3. No Imitations 4. Hey! Buddy 5. Cable St. Blues 6.
