Selfish Machines

Pierce the Veil

High-velocity post-hardcore defined by soaring falsetto, intricate guitar leads, and a theatrical sense of emotional urgency. A cornerstone of the 2010s emo revival.

Moments Worth Listening For
The transition from the delicate acoustic strumming of Southern Constellations into the explosive drum fill of The Boy Who Could Fly.
The jarring contrast between Vic Fuentes' high-register melody and Jeremy McKinnon's guttural guest vocals during the bridge of Caraphernelia.
The intricate, flamenco-inspired guitar lead that opens Besitos, setting a sophisticated technical tone for the record.
