VUKOVI – Bladed

Electrifying alt-rock duo, VUKOVI, have dropped a stunning, volatile video for their track “BLADED”, the final track from their critically acclaimed album “MY GOD HAS GOT A GUN”.“BLADED” comes loaded with radiance and ruin, which is captured beautifully in the flawless video by Zak Pinchin.VUKOVI‘s Janine Shilstone comments: “Closing the chapter of MGHGAG with my favourite track off the album. The video is monochromatic and enchanting with the undertones of destruction and mental illness. Beauty and poise doesn’t portray what truly lies beneath.”
VUKOVI (from North Ayrshire, Scotland) are a dynamic two-piece alt-rock outfit fronted by vocalist Janine Shilstone and guitarist Hamish Reilly. Their sound combines blistering riffs and melodic vocals with elements of heavy-rock, noise-pop, and nu-metal, suitable for fans of Bring Me The HorizonPVRISDon Broco and Royal Blood.

Following the critical success of their 2017 debut “VUKOVI” and the electrifying follow-up “Fall Better” (2020), VUKOVI truly ascended to stratospheric new heights with their third album, “NULA” (2022). While ‘La Di Da’, drawn from their debut, remains a perennial fan favourite, tracks such as ‘Lasso’, ‘Hades’ and the anthemic ‘I Exist’ continue to command chaos from fans in live settings across the globe.

VUKOVI released their latest album “MY GOD HAS GOT A GUN” via Sharptone Records in 2025, recorded and co-produced by legendary Machine at The Machine Shop Studio in Texas. The album garnered praise from BBC Radio 1Kerrang!Rock Sound and Metal Hammer for its cathartic yet exorcistic expression of themes surrounding mental health, religion and female empowerment. The album channels raw emotions through a refined, ferocious delivery, taking influence from titans such as Rage Against The Machine and Deftones.

Having toured with the likes of BabymetalEnter Shikari, PVRISNothing More and One Ok RockVUKOVI continue to build their audiences worldwide. The band have a reputation for their explosive live performances, with Janine famously able to command a crowd with such intensity where pits ignite at a single gesture. Their recent Main Stage performance at 2000 Trees Festival (UK) marked a pivotal moment, firmly cementing their status as future headliners.

VUKOVI boast an enviable history of appearances at major international festivals including Welcome To Rockville (USA), Sonic Temple (USA), Download Festival (UK), Graspop (BE), Resurrection (ES), Rock For People (CZ), Jera On Air (NL), Reload (DE) any many more.
