180 Degrees Presents:

THE UNCONDITIONAL EVOL TOUR

Featuring:

EVOL INTENT (LIVE PA) [Lifted Music / Evol Intent Recs / Human Recs]
[Knick + The Enemy + Gigantor]

Evol Intent is proving to be a mover and shaker of the incendiary, modern “jungle” sound that is drum n bass. Touring everywhere from Atlanta to Australia has allowed Evol Intent to be among the greats to break down, recast, and revolutionize the world of drum n bass into one of the most aggressive genres of music today.

Knick, Gigantor and The Enemy’s hardcore punk inspired movement is leaving an undeniable mark on both the U.S. drum n bass scene not to mention the music world at large. In just a short period of time, the trio has managed to put together an impressive discography while recording for their label, Evol Intent Recordings, as well as numerous prestigious imprints such as Renegade Hardware, Lifted, and Human.

Enlisting the help of established artists such as J. Messinian, The Sounds of Animals Fighting, Cypher Linguistics, Ewun, Vicious Cycle, and Aaron Bedard of BANE, the Atlanta-based trio creates a sound for their latest LP that is clear and unmistakable. Combining defiant lyrics with forceful drum mechanics, razor sharp edits, and an element of dissonance stemming from their punk youth, “Era of Diversion” is a politically motivated LP like none other. Featuring much of the trio’s signature hardcore sound…while at the same time departing from it, the album holds endless surprises in store.

Evol Intent continues to break the mold, foray into other genres, and transcend all expectations with unexpected turns and different styles.

Every year, ALR Events sponsors a fundraiser for an animal shelter that specializes in bully breeds. This year ALR Events along with the Gallish Group is proudly sponsoring:
Atlanta Underdog Initiative will be using proceeds from this event for Gracie’s surgery (her pics are on the event page):
“Gracie needs to have what is known as a TTA procedure. It is in essence a cruciate surgical repair, but unlike a common ligature procedure the bone is altered instead of simply having synthetic ligaments installed in the leg. The specialist felt that she needed to have a TTA rather than simple cruciate repair as she is a very young and active dog. She had a simple cruciate repair done on her left leg back in May and we haven’t been thrilled with the results, even though we followed her care instructions exactly as directed. We were told that she would most likely blow out the right leg when the left was repaired. The care time was much longer with a simple cruciate repair than with a TTA.
She will have the surgery done at Beaver Crossing Animal Hospital in Lilburn. The clinic number is 770-921-4981. Gracie’s estimate will be under Patricia Siems and K9 Rescue League. There are also two other dogs having cruciate surgery under K9 Rescue League, so any donations called in for Gracie must be specifically designated for her.
The total without tax is $ 2,103.42. The surgery alone is $1,593.7. Everything else is for blood work, xrays, 2 days hospitalization and surgical supplies. “
