Yeule - Evangelic Girl is a Gun (2025)


Yeule’s Evangelic Girl Is a Gun is a meticulously crafted, genre-blending soundscape that merges trip-hop’s brooding beats, gothic industrial textures, synth-pop sheen, and glitch-infused electronics into a compact yet emotionally charged 31-minute opus. Balancing sleek, pitch-shifted vocals and icy rhythms with cinematic sound effects—like camera flashes and gun clicks—the album evokes the melancholic nostalgia of ’90s Bristol trip-hop while layering a modern “cyborgian” aesthetic over it. Despite top-tier production from notable names like A.G. Cook, Clams Casino, Mura Masa, and Nat Ćmiel themself, the album occasionally feels subdued and uniform, leaning heavily on stylized atmosphere rather than raw emotional impact. Highlights like “Tequila Coma,” with its bluesy basslines, and the dark intimacy of “VV” reveal Yeule’s talent for striking textures and haunting lyricism, yet tracks like “Skullcrusher” and “Dudu” suffer from repetition and overuse of vocal filters. Ultimately, Evangelic Girl Is a Gun is a bold stylistic statement—ambitious, immersive, but at times emotionally distant, caught between homage and originality.
