Check out our review of Prince of Truth in our Stuff We Like blog.
2009, Constellation
VINYL FORMAT. The new Evangelista album Prince of Truth stays true to the band's uncompromising and compelling combination of delicate, coaxing love and cathartic awakening sonic rhythms. Not so much confessional as ritual/processional and invitational.
Prince of Truth has shaped Evangelista into something more intense, more committed, more complex and more sonically and compositionally obsessive than ever. Conventional song structure is mostly absent - the pieces are built from an extremely diverse set of sound sources, taking shape through layers of accumulation and juxtaposition, foreground and background, sudden shifts, suspensions and dissolutions - and Carla's commanding voice and brilliant lyrics.
