"If Don’t Let the Kids Win covered the general calamity of growing up and into yourself, then Crushing was more direct in its desire for total autonomy—“a scream for independence and space,” as Jacklin told me. It got tagged by some as a breakup album, but what I heard most was the sound of someone growing stronger, setting boundaries, and actively navigating how awkward or numbing that can be." - Pitchfork

Julia Jacklin is a force. The Australian singer/songwriter is Pitchfork's newest Rising artist. Read the in-depth profile & interview about how Julia has spent the pandemic in the wake of Crushing's success. And even more good news, today we get a new take on a classic – Julia Jacklin has shared a cover of Björk's "Army Of Me" in collaboration with RVG. Listen below –

"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" – Julia Jacklin

"We adore Julia’s music and were thrilled when she asked us to do a precious Björk song with her. I think we all wanted to challenge ourselves a bit and do things we haven’t done before in a studio, while at the same time just having fun and letting ourselves be as intuitive as possible." – Romy Vager, RVG
