Episode 196 - Finelines by My Vitriol w/ Neil from The Accordion Podcast
Manage episode 307931975 series 2097494
We’re back in action! This week our friend Neil from The Accordion podcast joins us to talk about the mythical My Vitriol, and their highly praised debut (and so far only) album Finelines.
First off, a little on Neil himself. He hosts a podcast called The Accordion which, if you like ours, we’re absolutely sure you will love. He has interesting conversations about his favourite albums with an array of guests and it’s just as deep as ours, so if you like analysis and good chat, you’ll love his show.
My Vitriol were a huge buzz band in the early 2000s. Their debut album saw them gain acclaim and a ton of great touring opportunities from pretty much the get go. Whilst longer term success seemed assured, they then went a bit quiet before going on hiatus completely. They’ve since re-emerged in fits and starts ever since, even manging to release a sort of second album called The Secret Sessions in 2016.
In many ways, My Vitriol’s success is something that could only have happened during the major label feeding frenzy of the early 00s. On this episode, we talk about the band’s history, the fickle nature of music journalism and how it can make or break bands, whether they warranted the buzz they had and much more.
Is Finelines and unsung classic? You decide. Vote below.
