Watch: Vukovar Unveil New Single/Video "Place To Rest"


UK experimental/post punk/deathpop band VUKOVAR have the video for their new single "Place To Rest".

The song is taken from 'The Body Abdicator', the third the third and final movement of the Eternity Ends Here triptych set to be released on June 25 via Other Voices Records. Get it here.

A sweet combination of post-modern and modern alternative with a dash of dream-pop, ‘Place To Rest’ gives the band’s signature sound a move ahead and a breath apart by colliding said styles into a moldable mesh of sonic bliss. Simple yet elegant. Beautiful yet gritty. Take that for what you will, but ‘Place To Rest’ also gives you a place to contemplate.

VUKOVAR formed in a crumbling placefiller of a town in 2014. They were always dying and reorganized after cease to exist in 2019. Effete artists pretending to be northern hardcases  pretending to be uniform fetishists in iconoclast drag. "Do not trust us; we are fragile stars."

After the devastating loss of Simon Morris to suicide in 2019, Vukovar have worked on 'Eternity Ends Here'.
