Highly Evolved is an album by Australian garage rockers The Vines, released in July of 2002 (see 2002 in music). Produced by Rob Schnapf, Highly Evolved was an immensely popular debut, part of a trend towards post punk-inspired garage bands known as much for the relentless hype from the UK music press as for their music; The Vines were frequently compared to Nirvana. The debut single, "Highly Evolved", was chosen as Single of the Week by influential British music magazine New Musical Express.
