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.
