The release finds the Michigan rock heavyweights pushing their instantly distinctive sound to uncharted territories, expertly balancing the styles they’ve explored on recent tracks ‘Let The Chaos Reign’, ‘Work’ and ‘Breathe Again’ of which the latter two have blasted on to the Top 10 Rock charts joining previous #1 hits ‘Waking Lions,’ ‘Footsteps,’ ‘Deal with the Devil,’ ‘Trenches’ and ‘Torn to Pieces,’ which was certified GOLD by the RIAA in 2020.
The new single ‘Set Me Free’ is a reminder of the band’s ability to be a bastion for perseverance and positivity which features colossal riffs coupled with a formidable performance from vocalist Leigh Kakaty. Watch and listen to the video visualizer here:

If rock is dead, then POP EVIL is definitive proof of the afterlife.
The blue-collar band—which consists of Kakaty alongside lead guitarist Nick Fuelling, rhythm guitarist Dave Grahs, bassist Matt DiRito and drummer Hayley Cramer–have built a new rock n’ roll institution on their foundation of showmanship, raw relatability, and hard rock hooks, both forward-thinking and timeless.
POP EVIL’s songwriting on VERSATILE zeros in on their juxtaposition of cinematic melody and heavy, unflinching groove. Deftly mixing fist-pumping anthems and timeless power ballads, POP EVIL delivers their most ambitious rebirth yet with a jaw-dropping and unpredictable album. VERSATILE sounds exactly like the name suggests. It distils the soaring melodies and driving riffs of POP EVIL’s past and introduces an ambitious exploration of the future.
Beyond the success story told by the charts, the 1 million units of “total activity” across their catalogue, and the over 600 million streams of their songs on major platforms, POP EVIL’s greatest strength is the diverse group of people captivated by the band’s relatable storytelling and undeniable catchiness. These are fans earned, city by city, on tours with a modern rock playlist’s worth of genre titans.
