Evil Island brings together Johnny Whitney (vocals), Cody Votolato (guitar/vocals), and Mark Gajadhar (drums) of Seattle post-hardcore band The Blood Brothers alongside bassist Autry Fulbright of OFF! and …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead.

Providing further context on how the project came together, Cody Votolato shares

“Ross Robinson came to my surprise birthday party last May 2025. I mentioned Evil Island and he instantly said ‘Fuck yes, let’s make a record.’ By October we were in the studio and signed to Blowed Out Records. Now on April 15th, 2026 we are releasing our first single Tiger Baby with a limited press of 300 copies on 7″. It will include our second single that you can only hear early on the 7″ at first. We are super proud of it and it’s now available for preorder!”

That Robinson – the producer behind Korn’s debut, Slipknot’s Iowa, At The Drive-In’s Relationship of Command, and The Blood Brothers’ own Burn Piano Island, Burn – heard two demos at a birthday party and cleared five months of his calendar says everything that needs to be said about what Evil Island brought into that room.

Adding further context to the Evil Island origin story, Ross Robinson shares

“This is a record I’ve wanted to make for way too long, ever since signing and producing The Blood Brothers ‘Burn Piano Island, Burn’ .. I feel Evil Island is the coolest fucking band on earth and dare anyone to step up to the unleashing fire these guys throw down- they’re the king of kings .. I can’t believe we got to make this thing, it’s an artistic/emotionally violent dream come true for me!”

“Tiger Baby” is just the beginning. More coming from Evil Island very soon.

About Evil Island

Evil Island is Johnny Whitney (vocals), Cody Votolato (guitar/vocals), and Mark Gajadhar (drums) – three fifths of Seattle post-hardcore band The Blood Brothers – alongside bassist Autry Fulbright, a veteran of OFF! and …And You Will Know Us by the Trail of Dead.

Their debut single “Tiger Baby” is the first taste of five months in the studio with legendary producer Ross Robinson. What came out of that room is funky, catchy, chaotic, and completely unhinged in the best possible way. It sounds like nothing these four people have made before but also like it could only be made by them.

Pre-orders for “Tiger Baby” are available now on limited edition 7-inch vinyl, pressed to 300 copies, each hand signed by the band with an exclusive B-side that will only be available on the 7 inch, at least for now. The single and music video arrive on streaming platforms April 15th via Blowed Out Records.
