Tim Brown and Donna McKean’s legendary lost album "Evolver" is lost no more! Out for the first time on vinyl, sparklingly remastered with bonus session tracks, this Twentieth Anniversary edition of a psychedelic masterpiece fills a crucial hole in the Lunchbox oeuvre. Recorded in the couple’s 1990s Oakland basement between stays in Berlin, tour dates in London, and dreamy sojourns up the rugged Mendocino coastline, "Evolver" fuses jangle and jungle, ambient and dub into a striking pop statement. Marrying refined songcraft to the serendipitous magic hidden in half-broken reel-to-reel tape decks and vintage synthesizers, the LP plants its pop flag on the terrain of magic and mystery. Dreamy jangle pop gems emerge seamlessly out of a sea of loops, drones, and dubbed-out horn fanfares, cascades of tape echo feedback and whispers from outer space providing a trance-inducing backdrop to the pop sensibility for which Lunchbox is well-known. Hook-filled and hypnotic, "Evolver" is a sublime slice of post-pop psychedelia that you won’t want to miss.
