* GutturalGrowler: Their cover of Emtombed's [[https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ur1m9rca_YA "Drowned"]], considering how Matt Drake sings, it's a bit of a change. Considered {{Narm}} by the older Drake when first tracking vocals.

Evile is a [[UsefulNotes/{{Britain}} British]] ThrashMetal band credited with kick-starting the [[GenreRelaunch second wave of thrash metal]] alongside MunicipalWaste. They recorded their first album, ''Enter the Grave'', in 2007 with Flemming Rasmussen, the RecordProducer who produced Music/{{Metallica}}'s second, third and fourth albums. With a well-received first album and a song released on ''VideoGame/RockBand'', they hit a surge of popularity and released a more progressive second album, ''Infected Nations'', in 2009. [[TearJerker Tragedy struck]] when bassist Mike Alexander died on tour, leaving a girlfriend and kids alone. They've continued touring with a new bassist, and released a third album, ''Five Serpent's Teeth'', in 2011.

** "Zombie Apocalypse" by brutal death metal/grindcore band Mortician on ''Hell Unleashed''.
* DarkerAndEdgier: ''Hell Unleashed'' wears heavy death metal influences on its sleeve, with darker and more overtly horror-based lyrics, faster and more brutal instrumentation, and Ol Drake's vocal approach sounding a lot more like [[Music/{{Testament}} 90's era Chuck Billy]] than Matt Drake's more James Hetfield-like approach.



* HarshVocals: Primarily ''Enter the Grave''.

* MohsScaleOfRockAndMetalHardness: Like most ThrashMetal, about an 8.
** Songs on ''Infected Nations'' reach 7 or maybe 6, with "In Memoriam" and "Tomb" at about a 3.
** Parts of "Words of the Dead" may be the closest things the band has done to getting a rating of 9, besides their song "Parasite" and the "Drowned" cover.

Their fourth album ''Skull'' dropped in late May of 2013. In August, Ol Drake left the band and the band moved on with a replacement, Piers Donno-Fuller. After a few years of relative inactivity, Ol rejoined the band in the spring of 2018. Matt quietly left at some point in 2020, and Ol took his spot on vocals and welcomed in Adam Smith as the new rhythm guitarist. A return to the studio is imminent.
