Catalog Number: Color: Black Format: LP UPC: 4065629735517 In the mist-shrouded hills of Scotland, where legends whisper through ancient stones, there emerged a band as enigmatic as the land itself: Vukovi. The band's core members--Janine Shilstone, with her hauntingly fierce vocals, and Hamish Reilly, the guitar wizard who weaves sonic spells-are figures of intrigue. They first crossed paths in a North Ayrshire rehearsal room, though some say their meeting was less by chance and more by design, orchestrated by forces unseen. Vukovi unleash their latest creation, My God Has A Gun, a provocative title that hints at the explosive content within. The album, produced by the legendary Machine at the fabled 'The Machine Shop' Recording Studio in Austin, is the result of several intense weeks spent in the heart of Texas, where the band channelled the heat, the dust, and the raw, untamed energy of the landscape into their music. The album's artwork, a haunting and vivid creation, was painted by Janine herself. As the world waited with bated breath for new material, Vukovi embarked on their first co-headlining tour across the United States with brethren's Calva Louise, supported metal titans Babymetal across the UK, and conquered a number of major music festivals such as Welcome To Rockville, Sonic Temple, Download Festival, Rock For People and Graspop(to name a few).How they found the time to crisscross the globe, leaving a trail of electrified audiences in their wake, remains a mystery. Some say that when Vukovi takes the stage, the air hums with a strange electricity, and time itself seems to bend, as if the band is channelling something otherworldly. We asked the band for comment, but were offered no answers, only more questions. Their songs tell stories that are both intensely personal and universally relatable, exploring themes of mental health, love, and the human condition with a sharp edge. Yet, beneath the surface, there's always an undercurrent of something darker, a sense that the music is a portal to a world just beyond the veil of our reality. As Vukovi continues to carve their path through the rock landscape, one thing is certain: they are a band unlike any other, a force of nature that refuses to be tamed or fully understood. They invite us to join them on their journey, to explore the uncharted territories of sound and emotion, but they do so on their terms. In the end, perhaps it's the mystery that makes Vukovi so compelling--a reminder that in a world where everything seems knowable, there are still secrets worth keeping.
