A lo largo de los años, la industria musical ha sido testigo de la aparición y desaparición de muchas bandas, pero pocas han dejado una marca tan indeleble como Pierce the Veil. Esta banda originaria de San Diego, California, ha creado un legado que se extiende desde el post-hardcore hasta el corazón de sus seguidores. La combinación de letras emotivas y poderosas actuaciones en vivo ha consolidado su lugar en la historia de la música contemporánea.
La historia de Pierce the Veil comienza en 2006, cuando los hermanos Vic y Mike Fuentes decidieron formar su propia banda tras la disolución de su proyecto anterior, Before Today. Con la incorporación de los talentosos músicos Tony Perry en la guitarra y Jaime Preciado en el bajo, Pierce the Veil encontró rápidamente su sonido distintivo.
La banda debutó en 2007 con el álbum A Flair for the Dramatic, que fusionaba elementos del punk rock, metalcore y rock alternativo. El disco fue bien recibido por la crítica y los fans, quienes elogiaron la habilidad de Vic para escribir letras profundas y emocionantes.
(Here we are!)
Can you tell that story? It's my favourite one
I'm a fucking disappointment, I can't entertain you anymore
These stupid states of mind
(Everyone!)
Punishing me all the time
But don't cross your boundaries and think that it's cool
Misguided by darkness and lost on the road
I'm such a sucker for the rain
Here we are, crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall on my tongue and our lips are letting go
We lay on the side of the road
(Go!)
Pull the trigger tight and watch our distances explode. (Explode!)
If distance seems forever where's your home sweet home?
If anything should happen to me, I'll want you to know
I've loved you since, ever since then
Don't dance around me, I know what it means
No communication cannot be received
But I'm such a sucker for the rain, yeah
(Oh)
(Here we are!)
Crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall on my tongue and our lips are letting go
We lay on the side of the road
(Don't... chase... your... nightmares!)
(Yeah!)
Here we are
Crashing once again into the centre of your moonlit face, our caved in ribs
Your tears, they fall, our lips are locked and let the girls in
I can never let them, never let them go
(The side of the road.)
So take a deep breath and chase them with mine!
Your southern hearts would tell a deep, wild mind!
