EVADE “DESTROY & DREAM” RECOMMENDED BY NORMAN RECORDS (UK) & CD OF THE WEEK AT STASHED GOODS (UK)

“Sensous grooves and smoky melodies, but also passages of haunted ambient weirdness, making for an intriguing and well-formed aesthetic for total late-night immersion, equal parts awkward and seductive.”

Norman Records from the UK has given EVADE / Destroy & Dream a 5 out of 5 stars rating, as well as recommendation for the week. The album is also now available in US via our distributing partner Darla Records and UK stockists Stashed Goods who has awarded the album “CD of the week” at the store. More information on Kitchen.
