As the latest platter from Oklahoma's widescreen psych-rock upstarts Evangelicals Descends today via Dead Oceans, we-- gluttons, all-- can't help but want more. Lucky for us, the bone-rattlin' "Skeleton Man" has been given a digital single, available exclusively from the Other Music online shop right this instant. Coupled with a pair of B-sides, it ought to satisfy those not content with just one Evening with Evangelicals.

Appetite whetted, we'll have a few weeks to learn all our lines before Evangelicals roll into town to proselytize over power chords on a seven-week tour that kicks off just after Valentine's Day. The band will put in a few stray appearances besides over the coming months, including a lone hometown gig and little preaching to the choir at SXSW. On literally every other stop of the tour, they'll be joined by Champaign-Urbana, Illinois' Headlights.
