“A Thousand Angels” by Rachel Macwhirter

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, August 29th, 2010 in Fandom, Music.

I like seeing people inspired by works like Evangelion. I also like to see what comes from that inspiration. Usually it’s things like art, fiction, cosplay, music videos, and occasionally parodies. But I think original music inspired by creative works is horribly lacking, so I like to see when someone writes a song inspired by […]

Evangelion and Chiptune

By The Eva Monkey on Friday, August 27th, 2010 in Music, Video.

A number of months back, I was exposed to the Chiptune genre of music by way of Weezer: The 8-Bit Album, a collaborative, fan-produced tribute album featuring an array of Weezer tracks in the style of chiptune. I thought it was pretty awesome, and I listened to it quite a bit over the span of […]

Hellstorm Evangelion

By The Eva Monkey on Sunday, June 13th, 2010 in Audio, Fan Fiction, Podcasts.

I’m sure everyone has had this experience at some point in their life, where you create something as a child or adolescent, and when you go back and look at it many years later, you ask yourself, “How can something that terrible exist?”.  Ten to fifteen years ago, those sorts of things were relegated to […]

Icon of Coil – Love As Blood (Implant Remix)

By The Eva Monkey on Tuesday, February 10th, 2009 in Audio, Fandom, Music.

So I was minding my own business, listening to the Future Synthpop channel on Digitally Imported, an internet radio station that I’ve been listening to for a number of years, and this song comes on, and at some point, I hear a female voice cut in saying “We are the eighteenth angel, the other angels […]

Evangelion podcasts, for your listening pleasure.

By The Eva Monkey on Monday, September 29th, 2008 in Audio, Podcasts.

From Japanese sarariman trading thoughts on Rei over long drags on cigarettes, to now infamous discussions of the gender of angels on particular English-language Evangelion forums, there has been no shortage of discussion on Evangelion since the first stage of the manga hit newsstands on December 26th, 1994. Occasionally that discussion gets recorded and turned […]

New Rebuild Stuff

As you may have heard, Rebuild of Evangelion 1:0 “You are (not) alone” came out in theaters on September 1st in Japan. The reports have said that despite opening on only 84 screens in Japan, the first installment in the Rebuild series of films consistently sold out, and broke records for profit per theater. Over […]

BEST. PLUG. EVER.

By The Eva Monkey on Monday, September 3rd, 2007 in Audio, Eva Monkey, Podcasts.

It’s always fun to find some mention of your site on a blog, podcast, site, or other form of content. And it sweetens the deal to find out about it over a year and a half later. It amuses me how bitter and unhappy Daryl Surat of Anime World Order is in regards to Evangelion, […]

Mistakes of Youth Podcast

By The Eva Monkey on Monday, October 16th, 2006 in Podcasts.

Over the weekend, I was a guest on the relatively new Mistakes of Youth Podcast. The topic of this show was the upcoming Evangelion movies being produced by Gainax, as well as a few other related things. Being as how there is no real information regarding these films at the present time, we largely discussed […]
