Amigo the Devil has released the new lyric video for his haunting and introspective song “Virtue and Vitriol.” The clip is a slow moving close up that pans across the ashes and warped metal that remains following a fire that engulfed and completely burned out a car. That vehicle happened to be a custom wrap 1979 Ford Econoline Budweiser van, which was purchased by Amigo the Devil’s Danny Kiranos in 2023. After owning it just a few days, a faulty electric wire lit the fuse that would burn the beloved vehicle from the inside out on the streets of Nashville.

“Virtue and Vitriol” appears on Amigo the Devil’s critically acclaimed new album, Yours Until the War is Over, which was released on February 23 through Liars Club Records / Regime Music Group. The album showcases the scope of Kiranos’s artistry as a songwriter, musician, vocalist, storyteller and producer. From literary-influenced lyrics to heartbreaking tales of love, longing sorrow to clever and sardonic wit, Yours Until the War is Over firmly implants Amigo the Devil as an exceptional voice in the current field of ascending songwriters and performers.
