VindictA Sign With Napalm Records And Release ‘IDOL(L)S’ Following Dogma Split

Share

The former Dogma members’ new single introduces a wider theatrical album concept after their first Australian tour announcement earlier this year.

VindictA have signed with Napalm Records and released ‘IDOL(L)S’, taking the band formed by former Dogma members into a new label partnership.

The official video, shared by Napalm Records and Official Vindicta, introduces the five-piece’s second single. Napalm’s accompanying description identifies it as the band’s debut with the label, following their earlier track ‘The Face Of The Clown’.

In a statement reported by ThePRP on 22 October, the group say the partnership gives them support from a team that believes in what they are creating.

The song also points towards a broader project. VindictA describe ‘IDOL(L)S’ as part of a theatrical narrative that will unfold across their forthcoming album, using a puppet-show concept to examine spectacle, distraction and false authority.

That framework builds on the identity the band have established around five stage characters. Their official website lists vocalist Grace Jane Pasturini as Lilith, guitarists Amber Maldonado and Patri Grief as Lamia and Rusalka, drummer Gemma Sofia Salvatori as Kali and bassist Wena Velasco as Medea. The costumes and corpse paint are part of that character-led performance.

Australian readers have already had an introduction to the group’s plans. In June, BLUNT covered their Australian tour supports, ahead of advertised shows in Adelaide, Melbourne, Sydney and Brisbane. The band’s official site retains those June dates as part of The Reckoning Tour 2026.

The Napalm agreement moves the story forward from VindictA’s formation following the Dogma split. ‘IDOL(L)S’ is available now, while the inspected announcement leaves the forthcoming album’s title and release date open.
