Being bad or wicked just won't do any more! It's time for out-and-out Evil!

This amazing debut from Giant Jr, the first single from their forthcoming album "Wherever You Are In The World Here Are Directions Home", is incredibly infectious; they have a totally unexpected way with sounds, and their Eartha Kitt sample is one of the cheekiest you will have heard, selling your soul to the Devil never sounded like so much fun!
??
Featuring stunning mixes from Spencer & Hill and The Young Punx, this is a very strong single. Spencer & Hill were of course the remixers behind Sugababes' "About You Now", Booty Luv's "Some Kinda Rush", and "Cry For You" by September, and now have done it again with a massive floor-filling mix for Giant Jr.

The Young Punx dirty electro house mix of edgy cut-ups is truly storming, and already part of Norman Cook's set, receiving an ecstatic reaction at his recent massive Hyde Park show.
??
Giant Jr is a mysterious boy/girl duo from London, and with an outrageous home-made Barbie video accompanying "I Want To Be Evil", plus a collection of other stunning tunes, a sound all their own and a world that needs them, the future for Giant Jr looks awesome.
??
Released on their own Try And Make Me Records, through Universal, "I Want To Be Evil" is sure to be the first of many hits from Giant Jr.
