US-Extreme Metal force VITRIOL announce the re-release of their previously limitedly released and rare Demo EP “Antichrist”. The record will be available on all digital platforms this week on Friday 13th. The presale for the exclusive vinyl version will launch on the same day.
Kyle Rasmussen comments:
“Vitriol’s first introduction to the public was in 2012 by way of a three song digital release entitled Antichrist EP. Nearly a decade later we have decided to reach back and offer our most formative material with a proper look and sound. Remixed, remastered, and featuring newly recorded vocals, our goal was to let our fans see what we were through the lens of what we are now.”
Portland death metal band VITRIOL have premiered their live video of “The Parting of a Neck” with Metal Injection. Check out the exclusive video premiere HERE.The track is off the band’s debut album To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice, released Fall 2019 via Century Media Records.
“Being this far along in a world without live music we’re feeling especially grateful that Dylan (producer) did such a beautiful job immortalizing this performance from our last tour. The Parting of a Neck has always been a special song for us and has since grown only more significant. The song debuted as a couch-bound playthrough and seeing it get the live treatment at this point feels like the perfect way to punctuate a long period of striving. A true then and now. Vitriol offers tremendous thanks to those of you who have shown your support in these formative times. We are hard at work on what’s next,” states Vitriol frontman Kyle Rasmussen.
Fronted by the dual vocal assault given from guitarist Kyle Rasmussen and bassist Adam Roethlisberger, and driven by the inhuman drummer Scott Walker, VITRIOL proved to make a successful strike at the genre’s heart with their 2017 EP, Pain Will Define Their Death. Released via Italy’s Everlasting Spew, it already provided a shockingly intense glimpse at the whirlwind that is To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice.
To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice, which has been raved about by Blabbermouth, Decibel, Angry Metal Guy, features utmost sincere and vicious music embodying a radicalness and personality rarely heard within the genre. Purchase To Bathe from the Throat of CowardiceHERE.

On September 6, 2019, Century Media Records will release “To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice”, the first album by Portland, Oregon’s death metal group VITRIOL.
Fronted by the dual vocal assault given from guitarist Kyle Rasmussen and bassist Adam Roethlisberger, driven by the inhuman drummer Scott Walker, VITRIOL proved to make a successful strike at the genre’s heart with their 2017 EP, “Pain Will Define Their Death”. Released via Italy’s Everlasting Spew, it already provided a shockingly intense glimpse at the whirlwind that is to be unfurled on the much anticipated debut record, “To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice”.
Featuring classy artwork by Joe Petagno (Motörhead, Krisiun, Angelcorpse), the album offers 44 minutes of utmost sincere and vicious music embodying a radicalness and personality rarely heard within the genre. Rasmussen states:
“The spirit of VITRIOL is to take the uncompromising, thrashy, punky, spirit of the late 90s extreme death and bring it to a world that has been numbed by records that have abandoned all life in favor of shrink wrapped, candy coated articulation.”
“To Bathe from the Throat of Cowardice” will include the following tracks:
The Parting of a Neck
Crowned in Retaliation
Legacy of Contempt
I Drown Nightly
The Rope Calls You Brother
A Gentle Gift
Violence, a Worthy Truth
Victim
Hive Lungs
Pain Will Define Their Death
Shortly after the album’s release, VITRIOL will join Nile’s A Vile Desolate Sands Tour 2019 kicking off September 10, VITRIOL comments:
“We have the true honor to be entering Europe for the first time with the kings in Nile and Hate Eternal. The weight of this opportunity is not lost on us, and it is one we will approach with respect and sincere devotion.”
