EVANS THE DEATH - Evans The Death

Named after the undertaker in Dylan Thomas's Under Milk Wood, EVANS THE DEATH comprise of Dan Moss (guitar, vocals), Katherine Whitaker (vocals, keys), Olly Moss (guitar), Rob Mitson (drums) and Lan McCardle (bass). Attuned as much to the lyrical dexterity of Morrissey, Lawrence Felt, Edwyn Collins, and Jarvis Cocker, as to the scuzzed up melodic exuberance of early My Bloody Valentine, Pavement, The Pixies, and the I Am Kurious Oranj era of The Fall, the band effortlessly blend precocious musical literacy with the kind of unerring self-awareness which makes for a perfectly pitched pop sensibility. Following the release of their instantly acclaimed debut single, the urgent and unsettling latent-cold-war-paranoia love-song "threads", and the scathingly acerbic and the boldly fragile second single "i'm so Unclean" the self-titled debut album is released in April 2012.
