SAN DIEGO, CA - As 2007 draws to a close, Equal Vision recording artists PIERCE THE VEIL can reminisce about a great year of foundation building and look forward to an incredible 2008! Three upcoming events in the coming year for these sparky rockers to get excited about: 1) a handful of dates with The Devil Wears Prada in Mexico, 2) supporting Emery on their full U.S. tour and 3) a booking for the whole Vans Warped Tour 2008 with a prime slot on the Hurley Stage.
Pierce the Veil are supporting their critically-hailed debut A Flair for the Dramatic which was released just a few months ago. Recently completing a tour with Chiodos and are wrapping up their current set of dates with From First To Last, the band will round out the year with a special hometown show on New Year's Eve at Soma in San Diego (dates below).
Having built a solid fan base in the underground SoCal music scene that birthed blink-182, Pinback, As I Lay Dying, and Thrice, among countless others, Pierce The Veil has been making waves into the mainstream with their unique brand of melody and artistic rhythm found on their debut album, A Flair For The Dramatic. With solid critical acclaim from Alternative Press ("Buoyed by shape-shifting, vicious rock underpinnings, Pierce the Veil effortlessly infuse everything from acoustics to electronics in the new assault") to Suburban Horror ("...what every fan wants to hear and what every band wishes they sounded like") to Metal Hammer ("... a well thought-out and effectively executed debut"), Pierce the Veil are prepared to launch their next strike on the road this Fall, constructing upwards from previous tour stints with peers such as Portugal the Man, Poison the Well, Alesana, and Fear Before The March of Flames among others.
Pierce The Veil’s unusual song structures provide the foundation for complex guitar lines and contrasting beautiful / abrasive vocals to mingle and form each and every memorable hook. The undeniable sonic connection between brothers Victor and Michael Fuentes (guitar/vocals and percussion, respectively)
