Articles by "Misadventures"


California residents Piece The Veil have made a name for themselves, since releasing their third full-length album "Collide with the Sky" (2012), to prior releases "A Flair for the Dramatic" (2007) and sophomore full-length "Selfish Machines" (2010). Since their third full-length dropped four years ago, the band has been hoping across the globe, playing shows left and right, touring non-stop, only having time to write martial whilst on the road in 2013, the band pressed onward to end up with what will be their fourth album entitled  "Misadventures".

An 11-track release, 13 if you get the deluxe edition, but the standard edition comes with the 11-tracks, consisting of such already released singles as "The Divine Zero", "Texas Is Forever", and "Circles", all of which are quite catchy and enjoyable on their own, while the rest of the album, pretty much ends up being just like the previous releases in their discography. Sounding just like they have always sounded, since the beginning, and that says a lot, having been a band for 10 years now, "Misadventures" has other notable tracks such "Dive In", opening the album, is very promising, having the instrumentals and vocal chords, work well together, as each play off one another really well. The music is edgy and fast paced, while the vocal chords, creep in a scream or two, that creates the music more in-depth and adrenaline pulsing.

"Floral and Fading", "Phantom Power and Ludicrous Speed", as well as "Today I Saw the Whole World", are other notable tracks, that keeps the pulsing adrenaline going, full force, having the album round off to being just like the rest of their material, but that's a good thing, these guys have a style, that they have adapted into, and this material is more matured and fresher, if you will, making the music for a newer generation, the next generation, for listeners of the pop punk rock hardcore genre. Lyrical context side of things, the lyrics are very meaningful, as each song has its own accompanier, you can relate to the content, whether it'd be the lyrical or musical side, it's a side you can accept either way you look at it.

Piece The Veil's "Misadventures" as a whole, is what you would expect from these guys, if you have been with them since the very start, up until now, or you are a new comer, these guys shall not disappoint, plain and simple. Take on a musical journey, go on some "Misadventures" with Pierce The Veil.


Pierce the Veil, one of the fastest-rising, most electrifying artists on the music scene today, will release its hotly-anticipated new album,  Misadventures, on May 13 (Fearless Records). Misadventures  is the follow up to the band's 2012 breakthrough release, Collide with the Sky, that debuted at #12 on the Billboard Top 200 Albums chart, held the #1 spot on the Rock, Hard Rock, and Modern Rock/Alternative Albums charts, has sold nearly 350,000 copies, and earned the band a Gold single for the track "King for a Day."

Check out the band's video announcement here  http://piercetheveil.net. The first single from Misadventures will be "Texas is Forever," a punk-flavored song that goes back to the band's roots, and, according to the band, is a song that begs to be played live.  It also happens to be the fastest song they've ever written.  "Texas is Forever" will be released on March 24.

For Misadventures, the band - Vic Fuentes/vocals, guitar, Tony Perry/guitar, Jaime Preciado/bass, and Mike Fuentes/drums - worked again with Dan Korneff who co-produced Collide and recorded at his Long Island studio Sonic Debris on and off between Summer 2014 and Summer 2015.  "It was exciting to do another record with Dan," said Vic.  "We had gotten to know him really well on 'Collide,' so there wasn't that initial period where you're trying to get to know each other.  We just dove in and started to make music right away."

Initial plans were for Misadventures to be released earlier, but touring commitments and the band's conscious decision to take their time to make the album the very best it could be, both musically and lyrically, set a different course.  Explained Vic, "We went into this record wanting to top the last one, which we try to do with every record, and we kept setting the bar higher and higher."

Vic's search for inspiration took him to a number of places to write the lyrics - New York, San Diego, Los Angeles, the Southern California mountain resort of Big Bear, Santa Barbara and Seattle.  "I wanted every song to have real meaning, and thought that in spending time in different places, I'd find new inspirations - that's exactly what happened."

The 11 songs on Misadventures find the band dealing with a variety of topics including self-worth and an individual's ability to shine, the dream of leaving everything behind while you run away with the one you truly love, the challenge of outrunning betrayal, an undefined relationship, and the horror of the 2015 Paris attacks told from a hypothesized point of view.  The track listing for Misadventures is as follows:
