1) Evol was an Italian black metal band founded in 1993. The band described itself as a pure atmospheric black metal act. The band's style was occult and medieval. Evol's tempos were rather slow. Surroundings were dark, very sad and repetitive. Keyboards were an omnipresent instrument in Evol's music, not only in use for surroundings but a large part of the melodies and were sometimes the basis of some songs. The bands sound was also distinctive by having two vocalists, the first one in a black metal style by keyboard player Giordano Bruno (Prince of Agony), the second one is the female singer Suspiria (The Princess of Disease). Guitars and drums emphasized and strengthen melodies. Guitars were played by Samael von Martin (Lord of Sorrow), who also plays flute.
They released three albums on Adipocere Records: "Saga of the Horned King" (1995), "Dreamquest" (1996) and "Portraits" (1999). On the second album tempos are rather rapid and sometimes speed. The whole album seems less dark. Structures of the songs were more complex and the band used more original instruments and sound, even if keyboards are still omnipresent. Rhythms are more heavier, sometimes in the vein of Metallica. On Dreamquest Evol used a wide palette of vocal styles: use of various tone, gothic, death, opera, black metal, female.
2) Evol is an experimental group from Barcelona, Spain that formed in 1996. The band produces what they call "computer music for hooligans". At the core of the project is Roc Jiménez de Cisneros. Occasional EVOL members and/or collaborators include Danish composer and multi-instrumentalist Jakob Draminsky Højmark, English sound artist Joe Gilmore, Spanish writer and sound artist Anna María Ramos, British video artist Andy Davies, Berlin-based sound artist Rubén Patiño and Scottish sound artist Joel Ongthorne.
Evol's work has been released on internationally acclaimed record labels such as Mego, Lucky Kitchen, Diskono, Scarcelight, Antifrost or fals.ch.
2003 saw the birth of a series of electroacoustic pieces entitled Punani, which addresses some of the main aspects of Evol's work, namely algorithmic composition, noise, psychedelia, diverse synthesis techniques, spectro-morphology and the musical application of fractal geometry and other mathematical phenomena. The series has five parts so far.
3) Evol was a Californian crossover thrash / speed metal band. They released a demo in 1989 and an album titled Experiment in Fear in 1992. After there release they played a couple shows and had a live version of "Cyco-Self" on the metal compilation Mosh on Fire: Banned in LA. Then the following year they broke up.

LA MIA SPOSA NON PARLA MAI...
SE LA GUARDI....TUNON LA VEDRAI...
SE LA CERCHI...MAI LA TROVERAI....
COME SABBIA...TRA LE TUE DITA SCIVOLERA...
TRA LE TUE DITA VOLERA...
I VOLTI DI AMICI ORMAI LONTANI AFFOLLANOI PENSIERI MIEI...
STORDISCONO IL MOI SPIRITO...
LA SIGNORA E DUNQUE IN LORO..IL PASSATO E LA SUA DIMORA...
QUESTO IO CERCO...NULLA PIU...
DOVE RISIEDE COLEI CHE RESTANDO VELATA DONA SENSO ALL'ESISTENZA...
VERO MISTERO E LA SUA VOCE....SILENZIO....
ANTICO ENIGMA IL DI LEI SQUARDO...
QUANDO LEI CHIAMA...SIRENA DEL MONDO...TI AMMALIERA...
VIVE NASCOSTA TRA LE COLLINE VICINO A TE...
MA QUANDO TI VUOLE....STAI PUR CERTO...LEI TI AVRA...
STAI PUR CERTO...LEI TI AVRA....
VOCI PERDUTE DA SECOLI ORMAI MI ASSORDANO...
DOLCI RICORDI MI CULLANO GIA....MA IO CERCO TE...

The lyrics to Evol's song Grigia Signora express the singer's longing for a woman, his "grigia signora" or grey lady. The woman is described as silent and elusive, embodied in the singer's memories of a past that haunts him and his search for meaning in life. The singer yearns for her voice and her gaze, which are mysterious and enigmatic. Despite his weariness from various adventures, the singer cannot resist the pull of his "grigia signora" and sets out to find her.
The song's lyrics convey a sense of nostalgia for a lost love and a search for meaning in life. The "grigia signora" may represent a lost lover, a muse, or even a metaphor for the passage of time. The singer's longing for her suggests a desire for something unattainable yet compelling, much like the search for purpose and fulfillment in life.
Overall, Grigia Signora is a haunting song that captures the melancholy of lost love and the human search for meaning in a world that often feels futile and lonely.
