Evinta is an album by doom metal band My Dying Bride released in 2011. It is a development of many of My Dying Bride's older musical themes and riffs, which were re-written for a variety of classical instruments, rather than the traditional metal music instruments; these riffs were combined with new vocals and music, thus creating a release characteristic of both a studio album and a compilation.
My Dying Bride press release, April 5, 2011
Evinta was released in three separate formats - jewel case, limited edition and deluxe edition. The jewel case and limited editions both contained disks one and two, with the limited edition coming in digipak format with a 24-page booklet and being shipped to independent retailers only, compared with the jewel case being for general retail. The deluxe edition came with a 64-page, 12-inch hardback book and the third disk. Music from the third disk, however, is intended to be released separately in due course.
The book and booklet both contained pictures from My Dying Bride's history, with a brief paragraph for every major release, as well as lyrics. However, the booklet missed out certain lyrics, and the deluxe edition removed the paragraph for the album The Light At The End Of The World.
