Two years on from their critically lauded second album, Fall Better – and a whole load of global weirdness in-between – Vukovi return with a record that is the best distillation of their unique musical vision yet. “NULA is a concept record,” says singer Janine. Like any artist who’s toiled over their work, Janine is keen for the record to tell its own story. And yet excitingly, they are planning a novella book supplement to the record down the line.
“I’ve always been into sci-fi,” Janine says. “Growing up I loved Star Wars, The Fifth Element, Alien and sci-fi was an escape from the pain. I could sit in my bedroom and look out the window and know that there was something so much bigger going on. That’s what I want this album to be for people. An escape.”
Scottish pop-punk band VUKOVI combine heavy rock riffs with melodic, catchy vocals to create an intense sound. The band was originally formed by Hamish Reilly, Jason Trotter and Martin Lynch under the name Wolves. However, the members changed several times and eventually Janine Slihstone was added to the group, and the name was changed to VUKOVI, which means wolf in Serbian. Their first EP was released in 2012 and was called Sweet Swears. The eponymous debut album was released five years later. Later the band remained only as a duo, with Hamish Reilly and Janine Shilstone. Together, they released the album Fall Better in January 2020.
