The Evens' first disc was pointed and protesting, to be sure, but here, on Get Evens, the raw feeling of the record makes the message here more pointed, more specific, and more meaningful.
-
The record is absolutely at a pace with the band's great debut.
-
This album bleeds politics.
-
Get Evens is as quiet and pretty as its predecessor, but the effortless ease is gone, replaced by a sort of busy anxiety.
-
While the Evens' debut was a little rough around the edges at times, those imperfections have been buffed away for Get Evens.
-
Get Evens is the aural embodiment of the sublimated rage of their debut. Though the instrumentation is still spare, it's meatier and more aggressive.
-
Get Evens is a grittier, more overtly political follow-up to their charming debut.
