We joke about, we prefer Vitriol as "sonic waterboarding", cause it's like, we want to get the listener to the point where they're like, "It's too much." And then we bring them up for air, you know? So, like the whole overwhelming experience in the band, is very intentional. So that was the thing, as I wanted it to be, how could I make it sound like a panic attack, but also be infectious, and make you want to listen to it more and more? I mean, I like the songs to have more of an anatomy to them. (Laughs) Well, in terms of, there's choruses, and verses, it's not just like riff after riff after riff, you know what I'm saying? I try to not do that.īut we like it though, it's a good thing. Those are conventional structures? Don't seem like it. To give a little bit more of a contagious But I'm also a fan of really traditional, Death Metal, you know? So, I wanted to be able to see if I could try to focus that, that chaos, in a more controlled way, dare say conventional song structures. And for me, there was a lot of stuff happening in Death Metal, and a lot of Black Metal happening, in the late odds you know, with Deathspell (Omega), and coming into the fray, into more of bleeding outside of the confines of Black Metal interest, you know? So for me, that shit hit hard and then of course, I've always been a fan of Gorguts and Ulcerate, and stuff like that, for me. Kyle Rasmussen: Well, I guess a good place to start, the stuff that jumped out, was more of the disjointed elements, the dissonance. So, I'm told you pretty much write the majority of the music, so tell me a little bit about you musically, the band and how it formed? Just the technicality, the dissonance, and this abstract feel of it, so it's an introduction for me, too. He was raving about you, and raving about your drummer Scott (Walker) and I was like, “Okay!” Then I hear band and the music, just right away popped out. We're talking about new bands, and he was mentioning Vitriol. I saw you guys at the Glass House show with Cattle Decapitation, and I got to interview Kelly Shaefer of Atheist, who's just a wonderful human being. Metalchondria: This is Jason Williams of Metalchondria, here with Kyle Rasmussen of Vitriol, great to meet you! And normally when I do interviews, it's bands that I usually know about, so this is more of an introduction for me, and as well for everyone else too. (The audio portion of the interview can be found at the bottom of the page) This was an incredible pleasure to be a part of, I hope all of you enjoy this fantastic read, that Kyle Rasmussen himself made certainly possible. We discussed how Vitriol formed, discussing uncomfortability within the feelings of many Metalheads, breaking down Deathspell Omega and other bands of the like, his time at NAMM 2020, and much, much more. And throughout all the interviews I’ve been able to do the past 7 years, this was arguably one of the most insightful and enlightening conversations I’ve ever had. I had the utmost honour to interview guitarist/vocalist and founder of Vitriol, Kyle Rasmussen after their set on the first day of this tour in San Diego at the Brick by Brick. Any excuse to see Vader of course, I was thrilled to hear Vitriol would also be opening this tour. This was my first thought seeing Vitriol open for Cattle Decapitation and Atheist at the Glasshouse in December of 2019, just a few months ago. One of the continuous great joys you experience in music, is immediately clicking to a new band that just astonished you with their talent, ability, and well-being.
