Pierce The Veil
The Jaws Of Life
Fearless Records
San Diego, CAโs Pierce The Veil has released a new album, The Jaws Of Life, on frontman Victor Fuentesโ birthday. Itโs been seven years since Misunderstandings, and their fans couldnโt be happier to have them back.
The band hasnโt deviated much from their signature emo hardcore punk sound, but this album has a bit more grunge to it. The first single released was the guitar heavy angsty track โPass The Nirvanaโ, coincidentally named after the band that immediately comes to mind when you hear it. Itโs fun and energetic and has everything you need to take you back to the grunge age. Itโs about finding your nirvana, or something to silence a world that just keeps getting louder.
The latest drop from the album, โEven When Iโm Not With Youโ, has the same riff looping continuously through the entire song. That riff with Fuentesโ mesmerizing vocals and romantic lyrics easily makes this one of my favorite tracks from the album.
โResilienceโ keeps in line both musically and lyrically with the rest of the album. It opens with a snip from the movie Dazed and Confused. You can feel the coming of age vibe not just with the opening and the music but also with the lyrics throughout the song.
The whole album is edgy, the guitars are raucous, and the whole thing is wrapped up in the title which is just about how all the negativity in life will try to sink its teeth in and devour you.
