Click "Lost Password" on the login page and tell it "admin". It'll email it to whatever email id you put in your config file.

If you should have not setup an email for your admin account or sth that would not reach you, you'll have to set a new password through a database frontend like PHPMyAdmin.
Go to the users table (normally evo_users) and edit the admin row. There you'll have to enter the new password into the password field and choose MD5 as function to encrypt it.

I mean a frontend to access your mysql database, yeah.. :)

That's only meant to be needed if you should not have setup a valid email address.

You could also upload a PHP file to your site with the SQL query and execute it by accessing it from your browser. But it's easier to just use a db frontend, provided by your host.
