"Vitriol" was the second single from Problems, the debut album by Australian indie rockers Bluejuice, released independently in June 2007. It's a wiry, cheeky blast of a record, and singer Jake Stone later said its success went far beyond anything the band had imagined.
The video helped. It was shot guerrilla-style in 20 minutes around Chinatown in Sydney, with the duo out front in white robes, heading where they knew crowds would gather and where people couldn't easily get away. It won Best Clip at the 2007 Sunscreen Video Awards. The song lasted, too: Grenadiers covered it for Like a Version in 2015, and it went gold in Australia in 2025.
