The gig will be their biggest in over two decades, their last being their headline performance at London Astoria in 2005.
It marks 25 years since the release of their cult debut album ‘Finelines’, which was awarded three stars from NME at the time, and hailed by our readers as an “album perfect from start to finish“.
They’ll take to the stage on Thursday December 10, with InMe and Yourcodenameis:milo joining as support acts.
Tickets go on sale on Monday (August 24), and you’ll be able to get them here.
A year after the album’s release, My Vitriol went on hiatus in 2002, before briefly reuniting in 2005 for a show at the O2 Academy Islington. A recording of the gig was self-released as the 2006 live album ‘Cast In Amber’.
Since then, they’ve shared EPs ‘A Pyrrhic Victory’ and ‘War of the Worlds’ in 2007. In 2017 they returned again for a UK tour.
The support slot from Yourcodenameis:milo also signals a potential reunion for them. The Sunderland band went on hiatus in 2007 and announced a return for some charity concerts in 2020.
Due to the pandemic, the gigs were postponed until April 2023. At the time, they hinted to NME that they would be keen to pen another full album.
On meeting their own high standards for new material, guitarist Justin Lockey said: “We’ve got to do something in a way that would honour what we did before – which is just don’t fucking care about anything else and make the heaviest thing we can.
He added: “There’s also an extensive amount of tracks that we worked on that we never put out. I’d also like to put the original Albini version of ‘All Roads To Fault’ out because I’ve got that whole record.”.
