Julia Jacklin and Melbourne quartet RVG have shared a new cover of Björk’s Post song “Army of Me.” tktk Check it out below. 

Jacklin shared a brief statement statement about the collaboration:

I just love Björk and I love RVG. I was running on a treadmill which I don’t do very often and I was listening to “Army of Me” over and over again to make me feel stronger than I am. Then I thought why not try and cover this song with another artist that makes me feel stronger than I am and I did! Was a good musical punch in the face to wake me up from a year of living a very small quiet life. RVG are one of my favourite bands in the whole world and it was just a real blessing to spend some time with them making music

RVG’s most recent record was last year’s Feral, following their 2017 debut A Quality of Mercy. Following 2019’s Crushing, Jacklin released two new songs for Sub Pop last fall before issuing the holiday snog “baby jesus is nobody’s baby now” in December.
