My Vitriol are an alternative rock band from London, England. The band name, which is often misinterpreted, is taken from the novel
Brighton Rock by Graham Greene. The band is often credited with initiating a new wave of Shoegaze, sometimes referred to as Nu Gaze, which bears comparison to genres of 1990s rock music from both sides of the Atlantic; both by American grunge bands such as Nirvana and as well as British "shoegazing" bands like My Bloody Valentine and Slowdive.
The band currently comprises
Som Wardner (vocals, guitar and lyrics),
Ravi Kesavaram (drums),
Seth Taylor (guitar) and
Laura Claire (bass). The band had success in the early 2000s with 3 UK Top 40 hit singles and a UK Top 40 album, before announcing at hiatus at height of their success. The group started releasing new material again in 2007.
