Principally recorded at Barry Barlow's Doghouse Studio, Henley On Thames, England in February 1997.
The tellingly titled EVERGREEN finds all the surviving charter members of Echo & the Bunnymen recording together for the first time since 1987. The band made one album without singer Ian McCulloch before disintegrating. Band members collaborated on various projects over the years, but only as a cohesive unit have they ever truly hit their mark.
McCulloch's voice is still velvety and pure, at once exuberant and tragic. His lyrics marry fragmented wordplay ("I'm in my prime and you're wasting my time/ You're denominator commonest low") with the swaggering self-confidence that has long been his trademark. Will Sergeant's guitar playing is, as ever, an inspired mix of frenetic stabs, swirling arpeggios, and soaring melodic accompaniment. Not to be overlooked, bassist Les Pattinson holds it all together admirably, delivering a tuneful, confident low end. EVERGREEN marks the triumphant return for Liverpool's other favorite sons--free of formula, but true to the promise of their majestic early years.
