After building an underground following with their first 3 releases, Evol Intent signed a deal with Alpha Magic to handle their distribution for Evol Intent Recordings. Soon after, Evol Intent was signed by Barcode records, a spinoff of dnb label Renegade Hardware. After their first release with Barcode, Hardware offered them an exclusive deal as permanent artists on the roster. Around the same time, Dieselboy approached Evol Intent to do a remix for his cd "The Dungeon Masters Guide." Upon completion of the remix, Dieselboy asked Evol Intent to do another remix for the cd, of a song from BT.
Their own Evol Intent Recordings imprint is distributed internationally through LOAD Media.
Flipside
Evol Intent Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
With razor fangs for these bitter men.
I'm filled with rancor for my fate,
I've clothed my soul in these rags of hate.
As I fall down on these bloody knees,
Perception shattered, now I see.
Intoxicated in hindsight, I'm going to get you on the flipside.

The lyrics to Evol Intent's song Flipside speak to a transformation of the self, one that has emerged from experiences of pain and despair. The first lines of the song suggest a kind of death and rebirth, a cyclical pattern that has led the singer to embody a more fearsome persona, one with "razor fangs" for the "bitter men" in their life. This new identity is fueled by a deep-seated anger for one's own lot in life, and the singer describes their soul as "clothed in these rags of hate."
However, as the singer falls to their knees, their perspective shifts. They realize that their previous ways of thinking were limited, and they are now "intoxicated in hindsight." It is unclear who or what the singer wants to "get" on the flipside, but this line suggests an act of vengeance or justice, a desire to make things right after enduring so much pain. Overall, the lyrics of Flipside speak to the complexities of personal transformation and the ways in which our perceptions of ourselves and the world can evolve over time.

I absolutely love this song! Her voice, the lyrics, and of course that dark Evol Intent sound!!
@crusha540
Actually, I think the vocals are a pitch-shifted guy from the band "Blip". One of the members of Evol Intent was part of Blip prior.
