DC's haunting gothic darkwave trio VOSH has revealed plans for a new EP titled Vault Vol. 1 to be released digitally and on limited edition vinyl in early 2025 (Date TBA) with Trash Casual.
Commenting on the record VOSH states:
"We wanted to encapsulate our live sound, creating a bookend to our first release. We recorded these songs in our basement and wanted to give people a better taste of what our live performance is like. These recordings are more raw and aggressive- a harder edge than Vessel."
Self-recorded live, the upcoming record features 8 new tracks, including a cover of Ozzy Osbourne's classic song "Shot In The Dark," which the band has unveiled today at MetalInjection.net.
Stream "Shot In The Dark": Spotify | Apple Music | Bandcamp | Youtube
Adding about the cover of metal staple, the band says:
"We love Ozzy- we wanted to pay homage to someone whose career has been a huge inspiration to us."
Further details of the impending EP's release date will be announced soon, but fans can pre-order the record now on limited edition vinyl at https://vosh.bandcamp.com/album/vault-vol-1
With news of the EP and cover of "Shot In The Dark" comes the announcement of the band's upcoming European tour that will take place in February 2025.

VOSH was conceived in 2019 by vocalist Josephine Olivia (Blacksage) and drummer/synthesist/bassist Chris Moore (Repulsion). Together with guitarist Tim Bean, the band draws on influences of heavy metal, goth, industrial, darkwave and pop, crafting a dramatic, sensual sound that blends and bends genres.
The band's 2023 heralded, debut full-length, Vessel, features standout tracks like "Bleed As One," "Perfection," "Superstition" and "Pray," seething with alluring sexuality and hypnotic rhythm that would vibe on festival mainstages and in backalley erotic sanctuaries alike.
