Fresh: Evangelicals

Thanks to Stereogum and the wonders of Myspace, here's a gloriously wacky band from the OK state: Evangelicals. Instructions: Take some Menomena, The Forms and TV on the Radio. Mash with MIDI blips and delay effects. Sprinkle with distorted samples. Blend all that with a good deal of psychedelia and you have the crazy-fun pop of Evangelicals. Their new album is called The Evening Descends and it's out Jan. 22. Stream it at their Myspace page and buy it at a record store near you. I know I will.

Amazing! I'll also be buying this CD. Thanks for the intro. Does anyone know if they're headed this way anytime soon?

Only date I can find is the one on their myspace... the record release party in Oklahoma. But if Jones and Co. stumble across this here humble blog -

COME TO LA!
