Ahead of their collaborative TAUK Moore Tour, TAUK and Doom Flamingo vocalist Kanika Moore have shared a cover of Björk’s “Army of Me” with a music video directed by Dani Barbieri.

From the same mind behind the visual components for “Moon Dub” and “The Let Out” from TAUK’s 2021 LP Chaos Companion, the video arrives just one week before the first show of the TAUK Moore Tour, which will take place on October 20th at Beachland Ballroom in Cleveland, OH. The monthlong stretch of almost two dozen shows will see the quintet debut new, original compositions and collaborative covers like “Army of Me”.

TAUK first performed “Army of Me” as an instrumental during the band’s 2021 fall tour, and when the question arose as to what songs would best compliment Moore’s powerful vocals, the song was an obvious choice.

“I’ve been a huge fan of Björk for a long time and always wanted to see what TAUK could do with one of her songs. The bass line is so badass and the perfect jumping off point for us to do our thing,” said TAUK guitarist Matt Jalbert. “Kanika’s approach to the song is incredible. It’s a haunting, dissonant melody, and she brings so much power to it.”

With a gritty greyscale aesthetic, the “Army of Me” video captures the raw power that fans can expect to experience live during the quintet’s upcoming tour. “This song felt like it had to be in black and white. I love Dani’s idea in the choruses with the flashing lights,” Jalbert told Relix. “This cover should be a good first look for people to hear what TAUK Moore is about.”

Keyboardist Alric Carter added, “As an instrumental band, it has always been fun finding covers to play that resonate not only with our sound but with our audience. Our originals don’t have lyrics, so traditionally, we strive to find songs with strong, recognizable melodies to help bring the listeners deeper into our world. Working with Kanika naturally expands our melodic reach and opens up a myriad of possibilities. Exploring these possibilities has been super exciting over this past year.”
