Evangelic Girl Is a Gun is the fourth studio album by Singaporean artist Yeule. It was released on 30 May 2025, through Ninja Tune.

Background.
The album's first single, "Eko", was released on 23 October 2024, without mention of an album. It was described by Ninja Tune as "about obsession and love and a voice echoing in yeule's head".
"Evangelic Girl Is a Gun" was announced on 3 March 2025, along with its cover art, track listing, and the single "Skullcrusher". Yeule stated that the album was inspired by Polish painter Zdzisław Beksiński, writing: “I wanted to bring homage to my life as a painter with this album. For me, Beksiński portrays so beautifully, with utmost care, the entities that crawl through his dystopian, tranquil landscapes. The nature of painting as a medium is a reflection of my emotions, both violent and gentle. A fleeting moment of time in my life, transcribed with paint and trapped in time.” "Skullcrusher" was accompanied by a music video.
"Evangelic Girl Is a Gun", its third single, was released on 8 April 2025 with a music video. The album's fourth single, "Dudu" was released on 14 May 2025. On 21 May 2025, Yeule performed "Skullcrusher" in their television debut on "Everybody's Live with John Mulaney".
